Amos 2:5, 6 But I will send a fire upon Judah, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem. Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away [the punishment] thereof; because they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of shoes;<\/p>\n
When we read scriptures like today\u2019s, we normally just focus on the actions and get alarmed. We need to understand why and against whom.<\/p>\n
Jerusalem is the name of a city in Judea
\nJudah is the name of a tribe
\nIsrael is the name of a race<\/p>\n
The scripture seems to say that because of the transgressions of Israel, the Lord will send a fire on Judah and devour Jerusalem! Also interesting are the numbers three and four put within the scripture.<\/p>\n
It is only when we have an understanding of Bible word study, symbolism and Bible codes that we will understand the scripture.<\/p>\n
Without going into details, if we understand the scripture, we will understand the situation we are experiencing and about to experience further.<\/p>\n
The scripture speaks of the mistakes which those mature in Christ are making or things they ought to do and are not doing, this opens the door of persecution\/disasters against those who are growing in the Lord and devouring those little in the Lord. The numbers give us an insight to the kinds of mistakes they are making\/things they ought to do and not doing.<\/p>\n
We who are called as leaders and mature in spirit, carry the mantle of Christ and as He protected His people by the Name the Father had given Him. So also we are called to protect His people with the Name of Christ, the Name which the Father had given Him. So let us put on His Name, for the power is in His Name.<\/p>\n
We call ourselves brethren and should understand we put each other under the umbrella of protection that is the Name of the Lord. Our mistakes can take us outside the umbrella and thus those under us become prone to greater danger.<\/p>\n
[Prayer Starter]
\nLord, You are Almighty God. You, Lord, are Holy God. There is power in Your Name. Your Son Who came from You, carried the Name, thus had\/has power in You; He is true Israel. Lord we pray, we who are in Christ the power that is in His Name and thus put on His Name to continue the carrying the mantle of Christ. We pray we understand our responsibilities and the consequence of failing to do so…<\/p>\n
This prayer we make in Jesus\u2019 Name, Amen.<\/p>\n
[Reference Scriptures]
\nJohn 17:12 While I was with them, I kept them in thy name which thou hast given me: and I guarded them, and not one of them perished, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.<\/p>\n
Amos 2:10-16
\n10 Also I brought you up from the land of Egypt, and led you forty years through the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite.
\n11 And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. [Is it] not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith the LORD.
\n12 But ye gave the Nazarites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.
\n13 Behold, I am pressed under you, as a cart is pressed [that is] full of sheaves.
\n14 Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mighty deliver himself:
\n15 Neither shall he stand that handleth the bow; and [he that is] swift of foot shall not deliver [himself]: neither shall he that rideth the horse deliver himself.
\n16 And [he that is] courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, saith the LORD.<\/p>\n
