Amos 5:3-5 - This is what the Sovereign LORD says to Israel: “Your city that marches out a thousand strong will have only a hundred left; your town that marches out a hundred strong will have only ten left.” This is what the LORD says to Israel: “Seek me and live; do not seek Bethel, do not go to Gilgal, do not journey to Beersheba. For Gilgal will surely go into exile, and Bethel will be reduced to nothing.”
Deuteronomy 4:29 - But if from there you seek the LORD your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul.
Isaiah 55:3 - Give ear and come to me; listen, that you may live. I will make an everlasting covenant with you, my faithful love promised to David.
Ezekiel 18:9 - He follows my decrees and faithfully keeps my laws. That man is righteous; he will surely live, declares the Sovereign LORD.
Application:
· Do I seek and fear Him? Do I live in obedience to Him? Do I love and serve Him? When I forsake Him, do I renew my allegiance and commitment to Him?
· Do I listen to my God so that my soul may live?
· Is my life more than mere existence? Does my life include communion with God?
