Don't Wait Until It is Too Late, Turn from Sin and Seek God and His Goodness!

 

Hear this, you who trample upon the needy

and destroy the poor of the land!

"When will the new moon be over," you ask,

"that we may sell our grain,

and the sabbath, that we may display the wheat?"

We will diminish the containers for measuring,

add to the weights,

and fix our scales for cheating!

We will buy the lowly man for silver,

and the poor man for a pair of sandals;

even the refuse of the wheat we will sell!"

On that day, says the Lord GOD,

I will make the sun set at midday

and cover the earth with darkness in broad daylight.

I will turn your feasts into mourning

and all your songs into lamentations.

I will cover the loins of all with sackcloth

and make every head bald.

I will make them mourn as for an only son,

and bring their day to a bitter end.

Yes, days are coming, says the Lord GOD,

when I will send famine upon the land:

Not a famine of bread, or thirst for water,

but for hearing the word of the LORD.

Then shall they wander from sea to sea

and rove from the north to the east

In search of the word of the LORD,

but they shall not find it.

~Amos 8:4-6, 9-12

One does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.

~Psalm 119:2, 10, 20, 30, 40, 131

We need to live by every word that comes from the mouth of God! Seek me and live says the Lord! We need to live according to His will, let Him lead you, guide you, and bring you where He wants you to be, let His will be done in your life! We need to turn from all sin! We need to realize we cannot live well on this Earth if we do not have God in our lives. His word is all that is important, even more important than physical bread or food or anything of this world! We need to repent, sin no more, follow the teachings of Jesus, obey God and His Commandments, and be people of good will! One does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God! People need to take this serious, sin is serious, it hurts, it keeps us from God and going to Heaven, we need Jesus, we need to follow Him and reflect Him! The days are coming says the Lord!
