Worship That Reaches the Street

Amos 5–7

“But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.”

Amos 5:24 KJV

TODAY’S DEVOTION

God rejected songs offered by people who maintained injustice. Worship and righteousness cannot be separated without hollowing both. The altar should shape the way we speak, pay, lead, forgive, and protect the vulnerable. Ask the Holy Ghost to carry today’s worship into visible integrity. Let justice flow through ordinary choices, not remain a word reserved for public causes.
