Amos 3 and Hurricane Matthew

Amos 3 by Rev. Cornelis Pronk (Text; Amos 3:8; Preached in 1978)

Just a note about this sermon. This sermon was preached by Rev. Cornelis Pronk in 1978.  The text he uses is Amos 3:8: "The lion hath roared, who shall not fear. The Lord God hath Spoken, who can but prophecy?"

In the past people have tried to claim that God is sending his judgment on certain areas that are affected by disasters like Hurricane Matthews. Rev. Pronk says we should never do that. Still, he says, and I agree with him on this, that when these disasters occur, it should cause us to stop and ask ourselves, "What is God saying to us in the disaster?"

Excerpt from this article:

"Samaritan's Purse stands ready to respond at a moment’s notice whenever and wherever disaster strikes.

We provide food, water, shelter, medicine, and other assistance in the Name of Jesus Christ."

Please consider making a donation (to Samaritan's Purse or other good disaster aid organizations) to help the many people affected by Hurricane Matthew!

It's probably bad taste to use a disaster like Hurricane Matthews to attack a politician running for the Presidency of the United State. But Haiti in particular needs our  help. And if you think Hillary Clinton is going to be the person do give that help, check out the following links:
