Amos 5:4
"Seek ye me, and ye shall live"
These awakening words must be heard and heeded to; as well as the words of comfort and peace. Whether we obey to the word of God or choose not; his word shall take effect. Our Lord proclaims mercy to all men; however some often expect deliverance from self-invented lust for sin, that makes their condemnation sure. They refuse Christ and his mercy, that they may live: however with no change God's wrath will break fourth upon them. Man may love the world, but the world cannot and will not love them.
This same almighty power can, for repenting sinners, easily turn affliction and sorrow into prosperity and joy. We must seek and love that which is of God. We should plead God's spiritual promises, to beseech him to create a clean heart within us and to renew a right spirit within us. The Lord is ever ready to be gracious to the souls that seek him.
