Preparing for Worship | March 6, 2022

This Sunday's Sermon Text: Amos 9:11–15

“In that day I will restore the fallen house of David.

I will repair its damaged walls.

From the ruins I will rebuild it

and restore its former glory.

And Israel will possess what is left of Edom

and all the nations I have called to be mine.”

The Lord has spoken,

and he will do these things.

“The time will come,” says the Lord,

“when the grain and grapes will grow faster than they can be harvested.

Then the terraced vineyards on the hills of Israel

will drip with sweet wine!

I will bring my exiled people of Israel

back from distant lands,

and they will rebuild their ruined cities

and live in them again.

They will plant vineyards and gardens;

they will eat their crops and drink their wine.

I will firmly plant them there

in their own land.

They will never again be uprooted

from the land I have given them,”

says the Lord your God. (ESV)
