A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold is as pictures of silver.(Prov.25:11) It is so important to speak the right words to people at the right time to produce the right results. When you think of apples of gold in pictures of silver, then you are thinking of wealth and excellence. When we speak wisdom into the lives of others we are making them wealthy. Therefore we must seek God for He is the source of all wisdom and He will give us just the right words needed at the right time.

#Seek good and not evil, that ye may live and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken. Hate the evil and love the good and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph. Therefore the LORD, the God of hosts, the Lord, saith thus; Wailing shall be in all streets and they shall say in all the highways, Alas! alas, and they shall call the husbandman to mourn and such as are skillful of lamentation to wailing. And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through thee, saith the LORD. Amos 5:14-17
Jehovah God tells the Israelites to seek good and not evil, that ye may live and the God of host shall be with you. Nevertheless, because you did not obey the command of the Lord there will be wailing in the streets and they shall say in all the highways Alas! as the farmers will be mourning as well as the skillful of lamentation will wail. What a warning we have in America today as fires ravish the Westcoast and Hurricanes destroy the Eastcoast. We must mourn for our sins and turn to God with wailing by seeking to do good. Homes need to be put back together and God must be the first place in our lives. For, these are all the signs that the day of the Lord is coming as a thief in the night. For it shall catch all the world by surprise. Jesus warned as the days of Noah and Lot were, so would be the coming of the Lord. It is my prayer that Pastors will preach repentance toward Christ and the forgiveness of sins for people to turn back to the Lord before the tribulation comes.
#That strengtheneth the spoiled against the strong, so that the spoiled shall come against the fortress. They hate him that rebuketh in the gate and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly. Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor and ye take from him burdens of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them: ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink the wine of them. Amos 5:9-11
Jehovah God is he that strengthens the spoiled against the strong and the wicked people hate the righteous that rebukes in the gate and hate those that speaks uprightly. Therefore God will chastise the rich for treading upon the poor and for taking from the poor burdens of wheat. The rich will build hewn stone houses, but shall not dwell in them. They shall plant vineyards, but ye shall not drink the wine from them. What a warning that is to the wicked and America as the income inequality gets wider and the poor have their wages taken from them. Seek Jehovah God and pray for justice to run down like rivers and the righteous will prosper in the land of the living. May God have mercy on America for the grace of God is upon her.
#Ye who turn judgment to wormwood and leave off righteousness in the earth, Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion and turneth the shadow of death into the morning and maketh the day dark with the night: that calleth for the waters of the sea and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name: Amos 5:7,8
Jehovah God tells the Israelites that turn judgment to wormwood and leave off righteousness in the earth to seek him that made the seven stars and Orion. The seven stars of God and the seven spirits of God are manifest of his power in the heavens. Stars are symbolic of people as in the resurrection one star will differ from another star in glory. As God turns the shadow of death into the morning and makes the day dark with the night; he is telling us to seek him early because Jesus who defeated the last enemy of the cross death, when he rose the third day. How mighty is our God that calls the waters of the sea and pours them upon the face of the earth: Jehovah is his name and he is most holy. Therefore as the people of God must be holy as he has commanded us. For soon the stars will fall from heaven when Jesus comes to redeem the earth from the curse of sin. So let us worship the Lord as the sun, moon, and the stars above do.
#For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me and ye shall live: But seek not Bethel, nor enter into Gilgal and pass not to Beersheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity and Bethel shall come to nought. Seek the LORD and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph and devour it and there be none to quench it in Bethel. Amos 5:4-6
Yes the Israelites were seeking Bethel, and entering Gilgal, while passing through Beersheba. Jehovah God warned them that Gilgal would go into captivity and Bethel would come to nought. We too as Christians are warned not to love the world, for the things of this world, the lust of the eye, the lust of the flesh, and the pride of life will pass away. We must seek God so that we may live, by turning away from idolatry. It is so easy for us to get caught up into this world, just like the Isralites were caught up in Bethel and Gilgal. Jehovah warns us that if we do not seek him, he will break out like fire in the house of Joseph and devour it, and there be none to quench it in Bethel. God wants us to live holy lives, by repenting of our sins and turning to Jesus the Author and perfector of our faith.
#Hear ye this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house of Israel. The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is forsaken upon her land; there is none to raise her up. Amos 5:1,2
The Lord of hosts has left the virgin house of Israel because of her idolatry. They are warned to seek Jehovah God and do good so that they may live. What a warning that is for America to return to the Lord and restore the wages of the poor that they have robbed. God is a forgiving God who will forgive when we repent of our sins and do good in the land of the living.
#I have smitten you with blasting and mildew: when your gardens and your vineyards and your fig trees and your olive trees increased, the palmerworm devoured them: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the LORD. I have sent among you the pestilence after the manner of Egypt: your young men have I slain with the sword and have taken away your horses and I have made the stink of your camps to come up unto your nostrils: yet have ye not returned unto me saith the LORD. I have overthrown some of you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and ye were as a firebrand plucked out of the burning: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the LORD. Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel and because I will do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel. Amos 4:9-12
Jehovah God sent mildew, blasting on your gardens, vineyards, fig-trees, and olive trees but ye still did not return to me, your God. Then Jehovah God sent pestilence after the manner of Egypt: America is in the midst of this pestilence with the coronavirus pandemic, cancer, and heart decease yet people still do not return to the Lord. Prepare to meet thy God. Turn from thy sins and repent, by changing your mind about Jesus Christ the only Mediator between God and man. Do not say because you are young none of these things can happen to me. If you turn to the Lord He will restore the years that the locust has destroyed. God is ever merciful and not willing that any would perish, but that you would receive the knowledge of the truth. Jesus is the truth that will set you free from your sin. Receive him today and salvation will be yours.
#And I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities and want of bread in all your places: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the LORD. And also I have withholden the rain from you when there were yet three months to the harvest and I caused it to rain upon the city and caused it not to rain upon another city: one place was rained upon and the piece whereupon it rained not withered. Amos 4:6,7
Jehovah God caused cleanness of teeth in all the cities, and want of bread to cause them to repent of their sins. Then Jehovah God caused it to rain on one city and drought in the other city. America is on notice to repent before the same judgment comes on her. We are witnessing the worst weather pattern than ever due to climate change and still, the officials refuse to accept climate change is a reality. It is time to elect a President that believes in climate change. May God bless America to live out the trueness of its calling.
#And ye shall go out at the breaches, every cow at that which is before her and ye shall cast them into the palace, saith the LORD. Come to Bethel and transgress; at Gilgal multiply transgression and bring your sacrifices every morning and your tithes after three years: And offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving with leaven and proclaim and publish the free offerings: for this liketh you, O ye children of Israel, saith the LORD. Amos 4:3-5
The children of Israel transgressed at Bethel and Gilgal then paid their tithes after three years, and then they published a sacrifice with thanksgiving with leaven. What hypocrisy and Jehovah God is not pleased with this and we must be careful to repent of our idolatry by seeking the Lord early in the morning. Our God is a sun and shield, he will give grace and glory, no good thing will he will withhold from those that love him.
#Hear this word, he kine of Bashan, that are in the mountain of Samaria, which oppress the poor, which crush the needy, which say to their masters, Bring and let us drink. The Lord GOD hath sworn by his holiness, that lo, the days shall come upon you, that he will take you away with hooks, and your posterity with fishhooks. Amos 4:1,2
God will punish the cows of Bashan in the mountains of Samaria for oppressing the poor and the needy. What a warning that is to America for the income inequality that has taken place where the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. God punished Israel for this behavior and He will punish America if she does not repent. Let us pass blessings to our children and not fishhooks as the cows of Bashan in Samaria did. The Lord is holy and just He will forgive and restore if ye will but call upon the name of the Lord to be saved.
#Hear ye and testify in the house of Jacob, saith the Lord GOD, the God of hosts, That in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of Israel upon him I will also visit the altars of Bethel and the horns of the altar shall be cut off and fall to the ground. And I will smite the winter house with the summer house and the houses of ivory shall perish and the great houses shall have an end, saith the LORD. Amos 3:13-15
Jehovah God will visit the transgressions of Israel upon him when he visits the altars of Bethel and the horns of the altar shall be cut off and fall to the ground. The idolatry will cause God to smite the winter house with the summer house. This will be a meteorological event and it will be massive for the ivory houses shall perish and the great houses shall have an end. Jehovah God is speaking with the hurricanes and tropical storms to get the attention of mankind. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Almighty God.
