BIBLE STUDY 29.6.
AMOS 4
You women! Mean to the poor, cruel to the down-and-out!Indolent and pampered, you demand of your husbands, 'Bring us a tall, cool drink!'
2-3"This is serious—I, God, have sworn by my holiness! Be well warned: Judgment Day is coming!
I SHOULD STOP ORDERING PASCAL AROUND LIKE THIS!
You know, don't you, that I'm the One who emptied your pantries and cleaned out your cupboards,Who left you hungry and standing in bread lines? But you never got hungry for me. You continued to ignore me."
LET ME BE HUNGRY FOR GOD!
He brings everything out of nothing,
like during cereation, he called things by name and they came thus into being!
AMOS 5
Seek me and live.
Because you run roughshod over the poor and take the bread right out of their mouths,You're never going to move into the luxury homes you have built.
THE POOR HERE, THE POOR ELSEWHERE, in africa...
Do you know what I want? I want justice—oceans of it.I want fairness—rivers of it. That's what I want. That's all I want.
AMOS 6
3-6Woe to you who are rushing headlong to disaster! Catastrophe is just around the corner!Woe to those who live in luxury and expect everyone else to serve them!Woe to those who live only for today, indifferent to the fate of others!Woe to the playboys, the playgirls, who think life is a party held just for them!Woe to those addicted to feeling good—life without pain! those obsessed with looking good—life without wrinkles!They could not care less about their country going to ruin.
PSALM 86
Help your servant—I'm depending on you! You're my God; have mercy on me. I count on you from morning to night.
Every time I'm in trouble I call on you, confident that you'll answer.
11-17 Train me, God, to walk straight; then I'll follow your true path. Put me together, one heart and mind; then, undivided, I'll worship in joyful fear. From the bottom of my heart I thank you, dear Lord; I've never kept secret what you're up to. You've always been great toward me—what love!
GOD, FORGIVE ME. I AM FULL OF ANGER THAT I AM IN THIS SITUATION BUT I WANT TO PUT MY TRUST IN YOU AND YOUR WORD! MY FAITH WORKS FOR ME AND MAKES ME WHOLE, HALLELUJAH!
But you, O God, are both tender and kind, not easily angered, immense in love, and you never, never quit. So look me in the eye and show kindness, give your servant the strength to go on, save your dear, dear child! Make a show of how much you love me
I'M LONGING FOR THIS KIND OF LOVE!
