Famine For Hearing God's Word

                                                                                         

God’s word tells us there will be a famine in the end times or latter days. Although it isn’t the famine most think it is. Most think it is a famine for food and water. God’s word tells us differently and that it will be a famine for hearing God’s word.

There will be many churches, preachers etc. The question is are they teaching God’s word or opinions and falsehood? Those who are only getting man’s opinions or falsehood will be spiritually hungry and in need of God’s word. This is what God is referring to in the verses below, where it says they shall seek God’s word and not find it. That is because there are many people who claim to teach God’s word, but they really are teaching opinions and falsehood that does not align with God’s word. Thus why one should always check their teacher out in God’s word. Making sure it is God’s word. This way noone can mislead you.

Amos 8:11-13

(11) Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:

(12) And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it.

(13)In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst.
