All the nations that bear God's name

Amos 9:1-15
Israel to be destroyed. Not one will get away, none will escape.
He who builds his lofty palace in the heavens and sets its foundation on the earth, who calls for the waters of the sea and pours them out over the face of the land - the Lord is his name.
Yet I will not totally destroy the house of Jacob, declares the Lord.
In that day I will restore David's fallen tent. I will repair it broken places, restore its ruins, and build it as it used to be, so that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations that bear my name.
For the nation as a whole, judgment will be inescapable. God will deal with them like any foreign nation. But for the faithful few the future holds unimagined blessing.
Why?
God's word will be executed, every sins will be seen by God's eyes. None any evil may escape before the Lord.
God is the mighty God, his name is the Lord.
God has mercy and love to his people, God keep his promise to his people who loves the Lord and honor his name.
How?
Let nations bear God's name. Let me honor God's name. Be strong and follow the Lord, obey his words.
