Justice would flow down like a river for Israel, for both offering sacrifices to God, but also following other Gods. God wants, no other Gods before him.

God wants you to speak to him, with a heart that seeks him, and wants to know him more. He does not want some ritualist repitition. He also wants you to know him. The Bible tells us all that we need to know about him. Meditate on his word and tell him what’s on your heart and the Holy Spirit will guide and teach you.

Lord, may our hearts humbly bow before you, in persistent prayer. May we be alert, to the needs of others, so we might lift them up. Reveal yourself to us, through answered prayer, even though it may not be, what we wanted the outcome to be. May we always remember, that you care about us and love hearing our petitions.

Devote yourselves to prayer, keeping alert in it with an attitude of thanksgiving;
COLOSSIANS 4:2 NASB
https://bible.com/bible/100/col.4.2.NASB

Warning: This was a warning of Judgement to those who did not seek the Lord. The nation had fallen into pagan worship and idolatry. It had lead, them into many forms of unrighteousness, and God was saying to brace yourselves! Does any of this sound familiar? Let us confess our sins and turn from them. Let us pray for our nation, who has gone astray. Let us be a light in a dark place and be used by God, as a lighthouse, to save those who will listen and receive God’s truth!

“But let justice roll down like waters And righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
AMOS 5:24 NASB
https://bible.com/bible/100/amo.5.24.NASB

No matter what our circumstances, we are commanded to tell others, about our great God. He should be feared, by those who worship other God’s. Gut check: Let’s take some time and think about any false God’s we may have in our own lives, besides the Lord of the heavens and Earth. May you have a wonderful day of Worship before the one true God today.

Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all the peoples.
1 Chronicles 16:24

God talks a lot about idols in the old testament.  He hate them!  Where do we put out trust?  Is it in our money, our looks, our jobs, our children, our spouses?  God says put it in him and we will be blessed.  Can I get an Amen?


“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord And whose trust is the Lord .
Jeremiah 17:7 NASB
