A Scripture and a Prayer: “A Desire God’s Word”

“‘Behold, the days are coming,’ says the Lord God, ‘that I will send a famine on the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord.’” (Amos 8:11)

Prayer:

Lord, You said that there will be a time when You will send into the landscape of our hearts a famine for Your word. And by the looks of it, it’s already here. People are more content getting their information about what is going on in the world from the secular news rather than from Your word. The problem, however, is that the world has its agenda telling Satan’s story rather than Your word that tells us the truth about what God is doing in our world today. So let us begin to thirst for Your word and be like that deer panting for Your streams of living water, rather than Satan’s stale, stagnant and infested water. And this I ask in Jesus’s name. AMEN
