Seek good not evil

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hear this word which I am lifting up against you, a dirge, O house of Israel. The virgin of Israel has fallen, and will not arise again; she lies forsaken on her land; there is no one raising her up – Amos 5:1-2.

Hard words that came upon Israel.

 

 

 

 

Yahuah says twice to Israel “Seek Me and live.” (Amos 5:4 and 6).

“Seek Me and live,” applies to us!

We need to turn what is not right back to what must be right.

Seek good and not evil, so that you live – Amos 5:14.

 

 

 

 

 

 

We need to hate evil and to love good, and to bring justice and truth back into our life and our nation. So, Yah may be gracious to us as He is to the remnant – Amos 5:15.

Most people hate truth or do not want to hear the truth and even will reject those who speak the truth – Amos 5:10.

 

Isaiah 59:15 And the truth is lacking, and whoever turns away from evil makes himself a prey. And Yahuah saw, and it displeased Him that there was no right-ruling.

2 Timothy 4:3-5 For there shall be a time when they shall not bear sound teaching, but according to their own desires, they shall heap up for themselves teachers tickling the ear, and they shall indeed turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to myths. But you be sober in all matters, suffer hardships, do the work of an evangelist, accomplish your service completely.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you read Amos 5:3, only a remnant will accept truth and be saved.

Yahuah says in Amos 5:21-22 I hate, I reject your feast days; and I will not delight in your festive assemblies. Though you offer Me burnt offerings and your grain offerings, I will not be pleased.

Are these feasts Yah speaking about; Christmas, Easter, Valentine, Mother’s Day etc., or is it His feasts of Leviticus 23 which is to remind Israel of Yahuah's redemption through His promised Messiah; instead, it became nothing more than a ritualistic time for drunkenness and immorality.

Yahuah says again, let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream – Amos 5:24.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sadly, most turn to idol worship and entertainment – Amos 5:26.

Be warned, just like Yahuah brought judgment on Israel so He will bring it on us if we do not seek Him – Amos 5:27.

Yahuah is His Name! (Amos 5:8 and 27).

 

 

 

 

 

Seek good and live.
