Answer Details
In the book of Amos, the prophet contrasts the sovereignty of God with the Nile river in Egypt. He describes the Nile as "rising and sinking", meaning that its water level would rise and fall, sometimes causing flooding and sometimes leaving the land dry. This was in contrast to the power and sovereignty of God, which was constant and unchanging. The message was to show that while the Nile was a source of life and power for the people of Egypt, God was the ultimate source of power and control over all things.
