Amos 7:7-15
Passage:
7 He showed me this: The Lord was standing there by a vertical wall with a plumb line in his hand. 8 The Lord asked me, “What do you see, Amos? ”
I replied, “A plumb line.”
Then the Lord said, “I am setting a plumb line among my people Israel; I will no longer spare them:
9 Isaac’s high places will be deserted,
and Israel’s sanctuaries will be in ruins;
I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam
with a sword.”
10 Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent word to King Jeroboam of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you right here in the house of Israel. The land cannot endure all his words, 11 for Amos has said this: ‘Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will certainly go into exile from its homeland.’ ”
12 Then Amaziah said to Amos, “Go away, you seer! Flee to the land of Judah. Earn your living and give your prophecies there, 13 but don’t ever prophesy at Bethel again, for it is the king’s sanctuary and a royal temple.”
14 So Amos answered Amaziah, “I was not a prophet or the son of a prophet; rather, I was a herdsman, and I took care of sycamore figs. 15 But the Lord took me from following the flock and said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to my people Israel.’ ” -- Amos 7:7-15 (CSB)

Prophesy Your Promise by Bryan and Katie Torwalt and Mack Brock
Lyrics:
I found You in the middle of my mess
You had been there all along
Open arms and open heart You called me in
You didn't hesitate at all
And the lies I once believed
They crumble
With the weight of Your truth
And the fear that gripped my heart
Is arrested
So that I can see You
When I only see in part
I will prophesy Your promise
I believe You God
'Cause You finish what You start
I will trust You in the process
I believe You (God)
You set a table in the middle of my war
You knew the outcome of it all
When what I faced looked like it would never end
You said watch the giants fall
Fear can go to hell
Shame can go there too
I know whose I am
(God) I belong to You
I belong
Prayer:
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name; your kingdom come; your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.
