We have on our YouTube channel several dozen video Bible Lessons focusing on the Old Testament Book of Amos. the above verse was discussed during that series of studies.
But it has impressed me afresh tonight and I must comment …
“Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name.” Amos 5:8
Look at all God does, as described in this single verse!
He created the stars, apparently even naming them! More than that … “He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.” Psalm 147:4, astronomy todays teaches that the stars are innumerable! But God knows!
Did this grand Creation include the constellations, and even other “groupings” of stars? Certainly, “Orion” and “the seven stars” (today called “Pleiades”) suggest that!
God turns shadows into morning, darkness into daylight! (And vice versa.) In fact, He is doing that this very second somewhere around the globe!
And on top of it all … God sends (engineers) the rain!
Bold claims!
But I believe every one of them!
Why?
Because I know Him!
You can know Him as well!
“The LORD is His Name,” and He is known (only) through His only begotten Son Jesus Christ!
Romans 10:13 … “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Seek Him today!
