The last major section of Amos’s prophecy begins in Amos chapter 7. Chapters 7-9 center on 5 different visions that God gave to Amos – all of which communicate God’s judgment on Israel. As we look to Amos 7, we will see several characteristics of living a godly life in a godless society. Please join with you church family in praying for our church and our hearts in preparation for Sunday morning.
Prayer Guide: February 28, 2021 – Amos 7:1-17
1. Praise the sovereign God whose judgments are always true and righteous.
2. Give thanks to Jesus who bore the wrath of God as He took our sin upon Himself on the cross in our place.
3. Plead with God for grace to walk closely with the Spirit and to live obediently before Him.
4. Pray for people that you know to be apart from faith in Jesus Christ. Ask God to be merciful and to open their eyes to the truth.
5. Praise God for His faithfulness to us amid trials and difficulties.
6. Pray for our Sunday Morning Bible Study leaders and classes. Pray that God will quickly grow the unity and the fellowship in these classes. Pray for those who have felt disconnected and for those who have stepped away from fellowship to return and find encouragement.
7. Pray for our Children’s and Student Ministries. Ask God to bless our church with more young families with children. Pray that children and students would come to know Jesus and be discipled in their faith.
8. Pray that God would do His work of salvation in and through our church family.
