Amos 4:13 - Additional Comments

What a great description of God! Throughout this chapter God kept trying to get Israel to know Him, so here we see more of who He is. This is the God they have been ignoring. You have a relationship with God - how do you perceive Him? Is the God described in this verse the same one you talk to? We need to know Him... and that's what He wants! Is the God you talk to the same one who forms mountains? Is the God you talk to the God who creates the wind? Etc. etc. See also 5:8.
