Amos


"those who trample the head of the poor into the dust of the earthand turn aside the way of the afflicted; a man and his father go in to the same girl,so that my holy name is profaned"

* Pray we repent of not caring for the poor as we should.

"You only have I knownof all the families of the earth; therefore I will punish youfor all your iniquities"

"For the Lord GOD does nothing without revealing his secretto his servants the prophets." This day God has made known to His people a clear warnning.

Pray we know That Has made to us, what is evil and what is right.

Pray we will be ever so careful to not keep in our wicked ways.

"If we still do not trun He will bring pushment on his people."

Pray we will listen and trun today.

"The Lord GOD has sworn by his holiness that, behold, the days are coming upon you, when they shall take you away with hooks,even the last of you with fishhooks. And you shall go out through the breaches,each one straight ahead; and you shall be cast out into Harmon,"declares the LORD. "Come to Bethel, and transgress;to Gilgal, and multiply transgression; bring your sacrifices every morning,your tithes every three days; offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving of that which is leavened,and proclaim freewill offerings, publish them;for so you love to do, O people of Israel

* May God forgive of works that are done out duty and not love For thus says the LORD to the house of Israel:


"Seek me and live; but do not seek Bethel, and do not enter into Gilgalor cross over to Beersheba; for Gilgal shall surely go into exile,and Bethel shall come to nothing."


" Seek the LORD and live,lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph,and it devour, with none to quench it for Bethel"


* Pray we repent of not seeking God with everything.

Pray thatGod helps us to really seek him again

"Seek good, and not evil,that you may live;and so the LORD, the God of hosts, will be with you,as you have said. Hate evil, and love good,and establish justice in the gate;it may be that the LORD, the God of hosts,will be gracious to the remnant of Joseph.

* Pray we will repent of calling what is evil good.

* Pray he will help us to see what is evil and good.

Therefore thus says the LORD, the God of hosts, the Lord:"In all the squares there shall be wailing,and in all the streets they shall say, 'Alas! Alas!'They shall call the farmers to mourningand to wailing those who are skilled in lamentation, and in all vineyards there shall be wailing,for I will pass through your midst,"

"O Lord GOD, please forgive!How can Jacob stand?He is so small!" The LORD relented concerning this:"It shall not be," said the LORD. * let not our eyes be dry.. This is what the Lord GOD showed me: behold, the Lord GOD was calling for a judgment by fire, and it devoured the great deep and was eating up the land. Then I said,"O Lord GOD, please cease!How can Jacob stand?He is so small!" The LORD relented concerning this:"This also shall not be," said the Lord GOD."

" Most high God we bow down and worship you this day, Thank you for all your wonderful ways. You alone are God you alone say what is evil and what is good, let us be wise and listen to your voice alone. May God test our hearts and know our ways. May God show unto us our hearts and actions that are not done out of love. May my eyes weep at my lack of seeking the most amazing God, I sought after other vain things. I have not sought with all I have. Change me, put a new desire in me. Move drive me. Stir me. That all I want is to seek you with all my life. Teach what is evil and what is good. Teach to know and understand your ways. Please God of my life. Be Lord and master tell me teach me to know what is good and what it evil. Teach me to run from all that is evil. Teach me to hate all evil. Be mercful to us oh Lord. Teach us to love you more amen"
