Amos 9:5-15 ~ The Lord is His Name

 




Isaiah 6:1-2 

In the year that King Uzziah died 
I saw The Lord 
sitting upon a Throne, high and lifted up
 and 
The Train of His Robe 
filled 
the Temple. 



2 Above Him 
stood the seraphim. 
Each had six wings: 
with two he covered his face, 
and with two he covered his feet, 
and with two he flew.



Matthew 9:20-22 

And, behold,
 a woman, 
which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, 
came behind Him, 
and 
touched the Hem of His Garment: 
for she said within herself, 
If I may but touch His Garment, 
I shall be whole.



Mark 6:56

And wherever He came, in villages, cities, or countryside, 
they laid the sick in the marketplaces 
and 
implored Him that they might touch even the Fringe of His Garment. 
And as many as touched it
were made well.





Amos 9:5-15




The Lord God of Hosts

He who touches the earth and it melts,
and 
all who dwell in it mourn,
and 
all of it rises like the Nile,
and sinks again, 
like the Nile of Egypt 


Who builds His Upper Chambers in the Heavens
and 
founds His Vault 
upon the earth

Who Calls for the waters of the sea
and 
pours them out upon the surface of the earth—

The Lord is His Name!



7 “Are you not like the Cushites to me,
O people of Israel?” 
Declares the Lord.

“Did I not bring up Israel from the land of Egypt,
and the Philistines from Caphtor and the Syrians from Kir?

Behold, 
the eyes of the Lord God are upon the sinful kingdom,
and I will destroy it from the surface of the ground,
except 
that I will not utterly destroy the House of Jacob,”
Declares the Lord.

“For behold, 
I will command,
and 
shake the house of Israel among all the nations
as one shakes with a sieve,
but no pebble shall fall to the earth.
All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword,
who say, 
‘Disaster shall not overtake or meet us.' 




“In that day
 I will raise up
the booth of David that is fallen
and 
repair its breaches,
and 
raise up its ruins
and 
rebuild it as in the days of old,
12 that they may possess the remnant of Edom
and 
ALL
 the Nations 
who are called by My Name,”

Declares the Lord 
Who 
does this.



“Behold, 
the days are coming,” 

Declares the Lord,

“When the plowman shall overtake the reaper
and 
the treader of grapes him who sows the seed;
the mountains 
shall drip sweet wine,
and 
all the hills shall flow with it.

I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel,
and 
they shall rebuild the ruined cities 
and 
inhabit them

They shall plant vineyards and drink their wine,
and 
they shall make gardens and eat their fruit.

I will plant them on their land,
and 
they shall never again be uprooted
out of the land 
that 
I have given them,”
Says The Lord your God.




I love Matthew Henry. Any day of the week, he is beautiful and eloquent - loving and tender as God. The English language has changed in the 250+ years he had his Bible Commentary:

Matthew Henry’s commentary on Amos:

GOD employed a shepherd, a herdsman! One who cares for others tenderly. And uses this tender person to reprove and warn the people. Those to whom God gives abilities for his services, ought not to be despised for their origin, or their employment. Like the advice of Gamaliel - what comes from God should not be tampered with. God places His Holy Spirit in all who believe. Good news.

Let us continue earnest in prayer for the fulfillment of these prophecies, in the peace, purity, and the beauty of the Church! God marvelously preserves his elect amidst the most fearful confusions and miseries. When all seems desperate, He wonderfully revives His Church, and blesses her with all spiritual blessings in Christ Jesus. And great shall be the glory of that period, in which not one good thing promised shall remain unfulfilled.




God does this!

HE is a giver, a bringer, a maker of blessings! 

Who can do it! The Great I Am has determined to do it! 
God's Power of Whose Grace is engaged in doing this mighty work! 
Verses 13 to 15, when are these days? 
In the awakening of the Holy Spirit within us - and - Possible in each day.


People say they want blessings, and we are made to adapt. 

We can adjust to lack of blessings and find joy - however - we work towards Blessings. We adapt to being blessed and become fussy blessing receivers. Abraham was a fussy blessing receiver. David did far better being a dodge Israel mercenary than a king in a palace.

What will be our response to Blessings of God?

This is a Very Large Topic, reacting to God's blessings. A God sized topic.

Joseph's brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, 
“What if Joseph bears a grudge.”

Jacob had been hugely blessed by God by all his workings, 
yet, 
Jacob was greatly afraid, and terribly distressed, 
Esau came to meet him with 400 men.

Jacob then divided the people who were with him, and the flocks and the herds and the camels, into two companies. Extremely rudely, for his own particular blessing and the degree of his love. For Jacob said, “If Esau comes to the one company and attacks it, then the company, which is left, will escape.”

Israel in the Exodus 

Deuteronomy 1:32-33

“But for all this, you did not trust the LORD your God, Who goes before you on your way, to seek out a place for you to encamp, in fire by night and cloud by day, to show you the way in which you should go.”

2 Kings 17:14-15

However, they did not listen, but stiffened their neck like their fathers, who did not believe in the LORD their God. They rejected His statutes and His covenant which He made with their fathers and His warnings with which He warned them And they followed vanity and became vain, and went after the nations which surrounded them, concerning which the LORD had commanded them not to do like them.

Matthew 19:22
When the young man heard this statement, he went away grieving; 
for he was one who owned much property.

John 2:24
But Jesus, on His part, was not entrusting Himself to them, 
for He knew all men




God tells us 
where all good things come from:



Psalm 44

O God, 
we have heard with our ears,
our fathers have told us,
what deeds You performed in their days,
in the days of old:
You 
with Your Own Hand drove out the nations,
but them You planted


You afflicted the peoples,
but them You set free;
3 for not by their own sword 
did they win the land,
nor did their own arm save them,
but
Your Right Hand and Your Arm,

and 
The Light 
of Your Face,
for You delighted in them.


You are my King, O God;
ordain salvation for Jacob!

5 Through You
 we push down our foes;

Through Your Name 
we tread down those who rise up against us.

6 For not in my bow do I trust,
nor can my sword save me.
  

7 But You have saved us from our foes
and 
have put to shame those who hate us.

8 In God 
we have boasted continually,
and 
we will give Thanks 
to Your Name Forever. 


Selah





Abba, Father!


WE PRAY 

BLESSINGS 
COVER
ALL

And
GRATITUDE





To be 
the Voice
of LOVE
Joy, Peace, Patience,
Goodness,
Faithfulness,
gentleness
and
SELF CONTROL





And ask You
for 
appropriate 
leadership
in
THE NATIONAL CATHEDRAL.

Worldwide leaders
condemned the erratic and unfaithful Sermon
given by Bishop Budde.
Who previously condemned 
President Trump
for saving St. John's Church from arson,
saying President Trump wasn't kind
to the homeless during arson,
and not a person to hold up the Bible.

Then condemning him for following the vote
the Vote of the People
for The Laws of the Land
and ceasing gender mutation on children,
as the Catholic Church Condemns
as a failure to provide Dignity to each Person.




Remembering 
the fall of the Episcopal Church
from 
17 million people
to 
500,000 people.





We Pray
for the departure
of what
 is 
not
good.






The Anglican Church of The United States
fuels the genuine and compassionate
blessed outreach 
of the 
Worldwide Anglican Communion
GAFCON

and not the portion of the 
THE NATIONAL CATHEDRAL


We pray the Blessing
of Growth
upon the Church
Proclaiming
The Entire Word of God
and 
the 
'Growing' Portion
of the Episcopal Church, but
not found in The National Cathedral.







The safety 
of those
helping the earth 
to heal.


Let evil and practicing evil
depart 
far 
from us
and our children.



With
GOD
We will act justly
 and to love mercy
 and to walk humbly with You, our God.




For the health
of Pope Francis.

Appreciating Pope Francis
Asking his physicians
to tell the truth about his 
serious lung condition.
Healing in Jesus.
We Pray.

The Joy
of the Lord
Our Strength!


Oh, Father!
Give us more of 
Your Strength
and Hope.









Dwell 
in me,
Dwell 
in us,
Dwell 
in those we Love.
Please
Strengthen
our
Families
and Relationships
worldwide


Help us to seek You first.
And 
we will finish well, 
in Jesus Christ. 


Help us seek 
find 
bring,
to become,
 more Heaven
on 
this earth.




Los Angeles
has more water in the canals
Thanks, President Trump.


Newsom
said 
there was no tap to put water here.

Governor Newsom
ignored recent fires in San Diego
fires Los Angeles
removing fire department funds for LA
the lack of paid reservoir water
the insurance cancellation 
of many, many residential insurance properties
ignored the increasing number 
of personal
fire hydrants
and did
not call out the Army
or the large numbers of Army Reserves.
Instead, Newsom
went out with news crews
and bizarrely began to sing.


20 Times larger
than any other USA fire.

We pray 
for the recall success
as Newsom
cancelled Reagan's laws of rebuilding
by 
unlawful decree.



Help for Detroit,
Help for Virginia's floods

Help for North Carolina



And the News to show the progress
of these situations
daily and
nationally.








THE GRAHAM MINISTRY
SAMARITAN'S PURSE
IS 
DOING INCREDIBLE
Love and Mercy and Work.

GIVE TO
 SAMARITAN'S PURSE
Please.







And in Jesus - This Hope.
Faith and Love - we will rise up Believing Jesus.

Amen

Yes The Lord Fulfills His Purpose


Thank You Jesus The Lord

About scripture-for-today.blogspot.com/

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He has saved all who call upon His name and rely on Him for His Grace. The Scriptures are living & active and are for understanding the Lord Almighty. Biblical readings are chosen from the Ecumenical Christian Church and the Nicene Council, 325 A.D., approved Apocrypha. People remember not just from reading, but by sight and orally- an image has been added as well as audio readings. God tends to link the passages together with fascinates - this blogger, Anne-Laurel Gardere

A simple blog, scripture-for-today.blogspot

This blog is pretty simple, but for a reason. This blog isn't about agenda or me, it is for the joy and love to found by reading the Scriptures. Ultimately, it is you and the Lord.

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
