Ep.63 Minor Prophets: Amos chapter 7 to Obadiah Introduction


Listen Later

In this episode of our Minor Prophets survey (KJV), we move through Amos 7 and step into an introduction to Obadiah. In Amos 7, we witness the Lord’s visions of judgment—locusts, fire, and the plumbline—revealing that God measures His people by His righteous standard. “Thus he shewed me” (Amos 7:1) reminds us that divine revelation precedes divine reckoning. We also see Amaziah’s rejection of truth, a sobering picture of religious resistance to God’s Word. From there, we transition to Obadiah, the prophet of divine retribution, where the pride of Edom meets the certainty of God’s justice: “The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee” (Obadiah 1:3). This lesson underscores a timeless truth—God holds nations accountable, opposes pride, defends His covenant purposes, and promises that “the kingdom shall be the LORD’S” (Obadiah 1:21).
