PM 12 April 2026 Every age produces its own form of complacency. For Israel in Amos’s day, it was the self-satisfaction of success. The economy was booming. Borders were secure. The palaces of Samaria gleamed with ivory and gold. People reclined on couches, sang idle songs, and congratulated themselves that God must surely be pleased with such prosperity.

The northern kingdom was expanding its borders, trade was flourishing,…
