Biblical Basis for PATH 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. 2 Chronicles 7:14 Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. Matthew 5:16 He told them, The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.3Go! Luke 10:2-3 I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Luke 10:18 2
