Amos 9:11 & 12

What does Amos 9:11-12 refer to when it says the 'booth of David'?

ESV Amos 9:11 "In that day I will raise up the booth of David that is fallen and repair its breaches, and raise up its ruins and rebuild it as in the days of old, 12 that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations who are called by my name," declares the LORD who does this.

The term booth is often translated 'tent'. The tabernacle of Moses was a tent that David brought to Jerusalem in his day. This may be a reference to the city of David, Jerusalem, and the worship of God that went on there day and night-that which was represented by the singers King David installed to honor God. (1 Chronicles 9)

A modern day movement is springing up in the spirit of the ancient ministry David established. This modern day movement is called "International House of Prayer". Based in the Kansas City, MO metro area, this prayer movement features 24 hour a day worship with spontaneous song and intercessory prayer woven into worship sets of two hours at a time. Every two hours a different team leads everyone who gathers together to pray in worship, intercession and devotion to Christ Jesus. See www.ihop.org for more information on this unique ministry.
