    There is a famine in the land, not because there is no water and food available, but because we are not taking the water and food to those who are hungry and thirsty.

    Famine – meaning starvation, deprivation, a shortage, in need, in want. Famine is lack, insufficiency, hardship, distress Famine is the opposite of abundance In this chapter of Amos, God is pronouncing judgment on Israel. God showed Amos a basket of ripe fruit and He told Amos it was ...read more

    I ask all of us the question…Does the prophet Amos speak prophetically describing America in another 25 years? The battle for the soul of America is on the line!

    Proverbs 29: 18 “Where there is no revelation (prophetic vision), the people cast off restraint.” Amos 8:11-12 “Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, that I will send a famine, not of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord…They shall run to and fro, seeking the ...read more

    Waiting On Monday

    Consider the reasons why a person prioritizes weekly activities more than the Lord’s day.

    Have you ever been guilty of anticipating Monday more than enjoying worship and service to God on Sunday? What causes a person to anticipate Monday to the exclusion of the Lord’s day? In the book of Amos we find this subject addressed. The Israelite people said "When will the New Moon be past, that ...read more

    Christians that don’t hunger and thirst for the Word of God are an oxymoron!

    Do You Have Bible Anorexia? "Yes, days are coming, says the Lord GOD, when I will send famine upon the land: Not a famine of bread, or thirst for water, but for hearing the word of the LORD.

    The Nourishment You Need

    Contributed by Mark Adams on Aug 13, 2011

     | 11,918 views

    This is a sermon that focuses primarily on Amos 8, looking at how a deficiency of the Word of God plays out in our lives individually and as a culture.

    Amos has always seemed to me like a man I could enjoy being around. He was plain spoken, and to the point. He was the kind of guy who appreciated hard work. Amos was a shepherd. He didn’t shepherd those pretty, fluffy white sheep. Based on the word used, he worked with a really ugly, ...read more

    A look at the plight of those trapped in poverty; at what God has to say about this situation, and at how these things should speak to us – if at all.

     | 18,880 views

    When we neglect God and His word, when we turn to God-substitutes, the result is spiritual dryness. When we want God to leave us alone, He just might. Amos tells what it will be like to live without a prophetic voice.

    “Spiritual Famine” Amos 8:9-14 Pastor Bob Leroe, Cliftondale Congregational Church, Saugus, Massachusetts (23 Aug 2015) In 1968, the USS Pueblo, a Navy intelligence ship, was captured by North Korea, a week before the start of the “Tet Offensive” in Vietnam. The ...read more
