DAY 19: THURSDAY OCTOBER 19. 2023.
TODAY’S INSPIRATION: AMOS 3V1-8.
“1 Hear this word that the LORD hath spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying,
2 You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.
3 Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
4 Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing?
5 Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no gin is for him? shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all?
6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
8 The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?” (KJV)

PRAYER:
Heavenly Father,
We humbly come before you, seeking your divine presence. In the words of Amos 3:1-8, we are reminded of your faithfulness and sovereignty. You have chosen us, your children, as recipients of your divine love and guidance.
Lord, help us to listen attentively to your voice and follow your righteous path. May we never take your mercy and grace for granted.Give us the wisdom to discern right from wrong and the courage to stand up for justice and truth.
Strengthen our faith and guide us in times of uncertainty.Just as a lion roars, reminding all to take notice, let your presence be evident and undeniable in our lives.
Fill us with your Spirit, empowering us to be a light in this world.Forgive us for our shortcomings, and grant us the strength to repent and turn away from all that hinders our relationship with you.
May the words of Amos remind us of your unwavering commitment towards us and inspire us to live lives that honor and glorify your name.
In Jesus’ precious name, we pray. Amen.
