The --journal parameter should allow you to point the command to a
directory where your single .amq file is located.

Keep in mind that the journal is meant to be treated as a whole as
information about the same message could potentially be spread across
multiple files. Taking a single file from the journal and running the data
tools on it may provide you with a false picture of the data.
