Read 1st Samuel 3:1 and Amos 7:14-17 and Amos 8:1-14 and MEMORY Verse Amos 8:14 and the last and greatest of verses in Hebrews 11:32-40.
I have learned early on that to be his means I must die that he may live through me. Self sacrifice is not, nor will ever be easy. Yet I strongly desire as Paul the Apostle who said, "It is better to be with the L-rd than to be here"
Paul didn't want to be here anymore either. He grew tired of the constant dishonor, disrespect, dangers he faced daily, the total unappreciated acts of others perpetrated against him.
And for what? For telling the truth, that's what. Amos says there will be a famine soon upon the land in the last days, not of food, but hearing the word of the L-rd.
If the prophets hear but G-d says speak not, the people will not be fed the word anymore. I think it can be good if they starve a while. Hunger motivates!!
If they are not fed perhaps they will learn to appreciate the prophets.
I am of the mind of Jeremiah the prophet when he said, "this people are belligerent, I am not speaking anymore in the name of the L-rd. They only continually wish to murder me for speaking your truth L-rd"
I subscribe to this man Jeremiah, and I do not want to ever speak the word of the L-rd to anyone ever again, because they don't care, they don't listen, they don't appreciate it, and they are completely ungrateful. Let them starve!
I am left alone, no house, no family of my own, no wife, no children. The price to serve is too great!!
Yet I have this gnawing feeling in the pit of my innermost being, deep in my spirit, I feel it in my bones, Its the FIRE of G-d shut up in my bones, I couldn't be silent if I wanted to, no matter how determined I am to let this iniquitous generation both old former generations and new generations starve to death.
This I will do, I will no more pray for them. I will obey G-d. Jeremiah 7:16
You want to walk from out under the protective arms of G-d, out of his loving hands of providence into the enemies territory? You will be alone, no angelic protection, Nothing, this I promise you! I will not pray for you. And if you use the name of the L-rd deceitfully saying you’re a Christian and do nasty things, I will pray then, but that a decree prayer and will dedicate your flesh to Satan who I pray destroy your flesh that both your soul and spirit might be saved. 1st Corinthians 5:4-7...
Do you still want to box with G-d now? Then be prepared to be injured to procure your blessing. Genesis 32:24-28
You may wrestle with G-d by agency of his Angel, you may even prevail and gain a new nature, a new name like Ya'akov {Jacob son of Isaac} but you will pay dearly for it!! IT WONT BE EASY.
But if you Refuse this word and become stout, stubborn and harden your heart and continue to strengthen yourself in your prideful ways, you will be destroyed of the destroyer Satan.**** Isaiah 1:18-28****
IT Is Finished~
