Amos 9:13
.."Behold, the days are coming," says the LORD, "When the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him who sows seed; the mountains shall drip with sweet wine, and all the hills shall flow with it.
Over the past years, there have been a massive harvest in the Kingdom of God as prophesied.
The Gospel is reaching every person unto the far ends of the world.
Massive restoration and deliverance is taking place.
One commentary on Amos 9:13 states,
Christ died to gather together the children of God that were scattered abroad, here said to be those who were called by his name.
The Lord saith this, who doeth this, who can do it, who has determined to do it, the power of whose grace is engaged for doing it.
Verses13-15 may refer to the early times of Christianity, but will receive a more glorious fulfilment in the events which all the prophets more or less foretold, andmay be understood of the happy state when the fulness both of the Jews and the Gentiles come into the church.
Let us continue earnest in prayer for the fulfilment of these prophecies, in the peace, purity, and the beauty of the church.
God marvellously preserves his elect amidst the most fearful confusions and miseries.
When all seems desperate, he wonderfully revives his church, and blesses her with all spiritual blessings in Christ Jesus. And great shall be the glory of that period, in which not one good thing promised shall remain unfulfilled.
