But Amos replied, “I’m not a professional prophet, and I was never trained to be one. I’m just a shepherd, and I take care of sycamore-fig trees. But the Lord called me away from my flock and told me, ‘Go and prophesy to my people in Israel.’”
The LORD does not not need (and does not use) professional prophets. He uses people whose hearts are right with Him to speak for Him. In ways He chooses. To His glory.
