In Amos 4, the prophet says to Israel, “Go and do as you please!” How frightening it is to hear such a message from the Lord for it means the day of His judgment is coming. May our fear of the Lord keep us from provoking His anger.
Amos issues a dire warning: the Lord will allow powerful adversaries to triumph over Israel as punishment for their transgressions. Let us learn from their experience and repent before the Lord’s judgment is upon us.
In this world where everything happens for a reason, let us heed the warnings of the prophet Amos. May our fear of the Lord guide our path and our choices in the days that lie ahead.
Through the prophet Amos, the Lord says plainly that those who fall from grace will find no escape from His judgment. Let us heed the warning while there is still time to turn back.
