There is much interest in these afternoon services. At night the text was from Amos 4th chapter and 12th verse, “Prepare to Meet Thy God.” The text refers to Amos warning Israel to return to God. The words are just as applicable to us at the present’ time. The text assumes there is a God and that we are to prepare to meet Him. Act as if there is a God and you shall come to know that there is a God. To know for yourself personally.. It is a personal meeting. It requires a personal preparation. ’ For we shall all appear before the judgment seat of Christ. Prepare to meet thy God in this life. Prepare today. Today is the day of salvation. Queen Elizabeth cried out just before death, “The half of toy possessions for a moment more of lffe." Prepare to meet thy God. Create within me a new heart that I may meet God in peace. This sermon bore fruit The people are seeking for more of Christ at every service and sotoe that come for the first time are being saved, such is the spirit of prayer bringing conviction upon the people.
