I saw seven golden lampstands and in the middle stood someone who looked like a man. He wore a long robe. There was a gold sash around his chest. His hair was white like wool, like snow. his eyes were fiery flames . his feet shone like polished bronze.

29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."

people started to get impatient, and they began to complain against God and against Moses.

Mount Sinai is enveloped in smoke and shakes violently as God descends in fire. As the sound of a trumpet grows louder, Moses speaks and God answers him.

FIRST POINT: The Warning before It Is Too Late (v.11) A warning always comes before the danger fully happens! Throughout the Scripture this is how God Works: before judgment or destruction, God speaks. This is God’s mercy. This is exactly what is happening in verse 11. That’s why the first point of my sermon is: the warning before it’s too late based on the verse 11. Look at verse 11 : 11“The days are coming,” declares the Sovereign Lord, “when I will send a famine through the land, not a famine of food or a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the words of the Lord. This is not only a prediction about the future, but a certain judgment from God given as a warning. This is really a frightening warning! To understand how serious this warning is we must look at it carefully! The verse 11 begins with these words, “the days are coming.”This is a serious expression of a warning. It points to a day that lies ahead, a day that God Himself has already appointed. But Amos does not tell us when that day will arrive? So the emphasis here is not when it will happened, but on the certainty that it will happen. Why? Because the next phrase says, “declares the Sovereign Lord.” This means that this warning comes from God Himself, not from the prophet Amos. And when God speaks His Word is certain. But what exactly is God warning them about? The answer is found in the next phase of the verse 11 in which God said, “I will send a famine on the land...” Notice carefully, God said “I will send”. This means the warning of famine that God is speaking is not accidental. It is not natural disaster. It is an act of divine judgment. But God also described the characteristics of this famine: this is “not a famine of bread or a thirst for water” which means this is not going to be a physical famine, but spiritual famine. What then makes this famine spiritual rather than physical? The answer is found in the last phrase of verse 11: a famine of hearing the Words of the Lord. This is the heart of the warning. During Amos’ time the “Word of the Lord” means God’s covenant given in his law and the prophetic words. The word “Hearing” in this verse means more than simply listening to sounds. In scripture the word “hearing” means: Receiving, Understanding and Responding to God’s Word. Therefore this famine describes a condition in which God’s word is no longer truly heard. This idea can be understood in two ways: firstly, it may mean when God would withdraw His Word, leaving the Israel during that time without clear guidance and corrections. Secondly, it may mean people had become so spiritually hard that even if God’s Word was spoken, they could no longer truly received it. In both ways, the result is same: God’s Word is no longer truly heard. And that is why verse 11 stands as the warning before it’s too late. And also therefore, this warning demands a serious response to God’s Word while the opportunity is still remains. dont show God because you cant draw God
