Amos 7 Ordinary Servant of God Verses 14,15, “14 Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was an herdman, and a gatherer of sycomore fruit: 15 And the Lord took me as I followed the flock, and the Lord said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.” I can relate to this guy. I know God called me to do this YouTube channel, but I don’t feel qualified. I’m familiar with the Bible, been studying it since 1975, but I didn’t go to Bible College. I’ve worked as a janitor, meter reader and an electrician before I retired. God called Amos, a regular guy who was a simple farmer. God uses highly educated men like the Apostle Paul, but He doesn’t have to, He can qualify those He calls. Moses, Joseph, and King David were shepherds. Peter was a fisherman. 1 Corinthians 1:26-29, “26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: 29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.”
