¥God commands it (continued):
–Psalm 32:6 (NIV) Therefore let everyone who is godly pray to you while you may
be found; surely when the mighty waters rise, they
will not reach him. 7 You are my hiding place; you will
protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of
deliverance.
–2Chronicles 7:14 (NIV) if my people, who are called by my name, will humble
themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from
their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and
will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
