Healing Beyond Division: Embracing Humility and Unity

The day after the day after—and still so many only see the small picture.

We shout for justice while drinking from the same bitterness we protest. Hate and negativity, blame and shame will never produce healing or reconciliation.

There is no redemption in shouting matches, no hope in dueling guns, no justice in brandishing irons. The voice of pride and bullying doesn’t win. Waving flags from opposite corners only deepens the divide.

The bigger picture? Our foolishness will destroy us from within. Venomous arguments are digging the grave of the very freedoms we claim to protect—speech, religion, press.

Isaiah wrote:

“The shadowy realm of death grows thirsty for souls and opens its mouth even wider to drink in the people” (Isaiah 5:14 TPT).

How true that rings today. And all the while, our true enemy mocks and rejoices.

The woes Isaiah spoke of still echo—people chasing pleasures, possessions, and power, ungrateful and insatiable. We have become arrogant, “wise in our own eyes,” twisting values and calling good evil and evil good.

But there is hope. I pray we would each repent and humble ourselves before God and one another, so that He may heal our land.

“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 I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
