The books of Joel, Amos, and Obadiah reveal the holiness and glory of God with striking clarity. They confront sin and expose the tragedy of a hard heart. These prophets show the justice of the Lord in judgment, holding out strong hope through his promise to cleanse, renew, and restore his people. Calvin’s prayers give voice to these themes with reverence and spiritual clarity, helping us respond to God’s word with confession, faith, and renewed trust.
If you are new to prayer, these historic prayers can provide a steady pattern of God-centered devotion. If you have walked with Christ for many years, they can deepen humility, renew confidence in the Lord’s grace, and strengthen love for his word.
Read the books of Joel, Amos, and Obadiah alongside the prayers in this volume, and let these faithful words help you seek the Lord with trust, reverence, and praise.
