Amos was commissioned by the Lord - “Go, prophesy to My people Israel” (Amos 7:15).
The purpose of such prophecy, in our generation, is to declare the
Gospel: “God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were
still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).
If this message of love is to be brought to the people, the preacher
must pray: “Teach me Your way, O Lord, and I will walk in Your truth
...” (Psalm 86:11).
"Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you" (Isaiah 60:1). * Let the light of Christ shine. * Let the words of Scripture lead to thoughts of the Saviour. * In Christ, we are called to salvation, sanctification and service. * Be wise – worship the Saviour. Is 60:1-6; Ps 72:1-7,10-14; Eph 3:1-12; Mt 2:1-12
