Contradiction with Amos 3:7

Amos 3:7 states that the LORD does nothing without revealing His plan to His servants, the prophets. This seems to contrast with Jeremiah 51:59 where a command is given to Seraiah, a non-prophet, without the typical prophetic revelation context.

Amos 3:7: Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
