Trivia Thursday – Name That Great Negotiator!!

…Shall misfortune or evil occur [as punishment] and the Lord has not caused it? Surely the Lord God will do nothing without revealing His secret to His servants the prophets.   (Amos 3:6-7)

Hey Neighbor! 

We’ve had a few difficult and/or tricky riddles and trivia questions, as of late; so today I am giving you an easy one🥰

Now, I love it when God says “Behold! I am about to do a New Thing!!”

Now this could either be good news, or bad news…depending on who is on the receiving end of God’s ‘New Thing.’ 😂

But Amos reminds us, as God’s mouthpiece, and as one who comes forth to communicate with man, after having been in the very presence of God, listening to His thoughts, His Words, and the plans He has for us….

Amos says that God, in His merciful nature, will not Do His Thing, without communicating His plan and His program to His prophet, first!!

Now there was another prophet in the Bible, who received a firsthand heads-up from God, while God was actually en-route to utterly destroy the wicked. 

And because this prophet was well-aware of God’s abundantly merciful nature…and because he knew that God would not ‘unjustly’ destroy the righteous, along with the unrighteous, this prophet negotiated with God, to spare his ‘righteous’ relatives, before God proceeded on His way to Do His Thing against a very ‘pride-full’  group of people!!
