Study

       

8 Behold I will bring them from the north country, and will gather them from the ends of the earth: and among them shall be the blind, and the lame, the woman with child, and she that is bringing forth, together, a great company of them returning hither.

Declare

  
The United States Declaration of Independence, copied by William Stone in 1823.

To "declare" means to say something formally, publicly and with emphasis; you might say what you think, but you only declare things you're sure of. So just as saying relates to sharing truth at various levels, "declaring" relates to sharing fundamental, unquestioned principles, often those that reveal the Lord and the salvation that lies in His embrace.

In Amos 4:12-13, 'to declare' signifies to flow in.
