Thru the Bible with Dr. J. Vernon McGee Amos 4:1-10
Turn from sin; judgment is coming! That’s the message the prophet Amos was sent to tell Israel. Amos’ message was anything but subtle, in fact he even used biting sarcasm, reminding people of the famine, droughts, locusts, and warfare that came before.

Sow The Seed
“Go ye into all the world, and preach this gospel ….” Go into all the world and sow the seed. And my business is just sowing seed. It’s the Lord’s business to do the converting. And we believe that the Spirit of God will take the Word of God and make a son of God when a man of God will use it. And that’s all we’re doing is just sowing seed. We’re not harvesting. And a harvest speaks of judgment; speaks of an end of an age. Our business today is sowing seed. And very candidly, I wish I could get us all back doing the thing God’s called us to do today. And the church is to sow seed, which is the Word of God, in the world today.

Daily Promises
But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. (Psalm 37:11)
The Lord shall not forsake His promise to His saints! Indeed shall they inherit their heavenly land. Even as Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob proclaimed themselves strangers upon the earth while they looked forward to the heavenly city of promise, so too do we rest in our hope of future glory. Even now we are citizens of the great and holy Zion. Yes citizens, but ambassadors in a foreign land. Ambassadors for Christ! Yet soon and forever we shall bask in the full weight of the brightness of the glory of Christ! We only await His return in glory! Come quickly Lord Jesus! Amen!
What Do You Know?
That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth. — Psalm 83:18
While you may "know" that God is God of all, is He really God of all in your life?

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
~ from 'The Second Coming', 1919

C. H. Spurgeon's Evening Reading (April 17th)
"We would see Jesus." — John 12:21
Evermore the worldling's cry is, "Who will show us any good?" He seeks satisfaction in earthly comforts, enjoyments, and riches. But the quickened sinner knows of only one good. "O that I knew where I might find HIM!" When he is truly awakened to feel his guilt, if you could pour the gold of India at his feet, he would say, "Take it away: I want to find HIM." It is a blessed thing for a man, when he has brought his desires into a focus, so that they all centre in one object. When he has fifty different desires, his heart resembles a mere of stagnant water, spread out into a marsh, breeding miasma and pestilence; but when all his desires are brought into one channel, his heart becomes like a river of pure water, running swiftly to fertilize the fields. Happy is he who hath one desire, if that one desire be set on Christ, though it may not yet have been realized. If Jesus be a soul's desire, it is a blessed sign of divine work within. Such a man will never be content with mere ordinances. He will say, "I want Christ; I must have Him—mere ordinances are of no use to me; I want Himself; do not offer me these; you offer me the empty pitcher, while I am dying of thirst; give me water, or I die. Jesus is my soul's desire. I would see Jesus!"
Is this thy condition, my reader, at this moment? Hast thou but one desire, and is that after Christ? Then thou art not far from the kingdom of heaven. Hast thou but one wish in thy heart, and that one wish that thou mayst be washed from all thy sins in Jesus' blood? Canst thou really say, "I would give all I have to be a Christian; I would give up everything I have and hope for, if I might but feel that I have an interest in Christ"? Then, despite all thy fears, be of good cheer, the Lord loveth thee, and thou shalt come out into daylight soon, and rejoice in the liberty wherewith Christ makes men free.
