Daily Bible Reading – October 2021: God’s Word of Justice

DAY 21 OF 31

October 21

Introduction

Amos describes three visions (locusts, fire and a plumb line) that pertain to the destruction of Israel. His preaching is challenged by Amaziah, the head priest of Israel’s temple at Bethel, and Amos responds with a dire warning.

Today’s Scripture Reading 

Amos 7:1-17

Today’s Key Verse: Amos 7:15

[Amos said:] “The LORD took me from my work as a shepherd and ordered me to come and prophesy to his people Israel.”

Reflect

In the first two visions, the prophet prays on behalf of the people (verses 2, 5). Why does the LORD change his mind? What does the vision of the plumb line indicate (verses 7-9)? According to this vision, what will be the outcome for the people? What does Amaziah tell the king (verses 10-11)? Why does Amaziah challenge Amos? How does Amos respond? Have you ever encountered resistance to what you knew to be the truth? Is hearing the truth hard? Why or why not?

Pray

Holy God, keep my heart and mind open to Your truth. Fill me with Your Spirit, and help me discern the truth, heed Your voice and obey Your teachings. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Prayer Concern

Those who are led astray by false teachings

Tomorrow’s Reading

Amos 8:1-14: The Prophet Amos pronounces more doom for Israel.
