In this passage, Amos is giving a serious warning to people who were living comfortable, successful lives and thought nothing could touch them. They felt safe, looked important, and enjoyed the best of everything. But while they were relaxing and celebrating, their nation was falling apart—and they did not care. The heart of Amos’s message is this: God is not…
Jesus teaches us that prayer is not about using fancy words, repeating the same things over and over, or trying to impress people.
