Hosea 14 ~ Take with you Words and return to the Lord

Hosea 14

1 Return, O Israel, to the LORD your God,
for you have stumbled because of your iniquity.


2 Take with you words
and return to the LORD;
say to him,
"Take away all iniquity;
accept what is good,
and we will pay with bulls
the vows of our lips.


3 Assyria shall not save us;
we will not ride on horses;
and we will say no more, 'Our God,'
to the work of our hands.
In you the orphan finds mercy."

4 I will heal their apostasy;
I will love them freely,
for my anger has turned from them.

 
5 I will be like the dew to Israel;
he shall blossom like the lily;
he shall take root like the trees of Lebanon;

 
6 his shoots shall spread out;
his beauty shall be like the olive,
and his fragrance like Lebanon.

7 They shall return and dwell beneath my shadow;
they shall flourish like the grain;
they shall blossom like the vine;
their fame shall be like the wine of Lebanon.

8 O Ephraim, what have I to do with idols?
It is I who answer and look after you.
I am like an evergreen cypress;
from me comes your fruit.

9 Whoever is wise, let him understand these things;
whoever is discerning, let him know them;
for the ways of the LORD are right,
and the upright walk in them,
but transgressors stumble in them.

Recently I took with me the Words of the Lord.

This is a Lamp to my feet and lights my Way.

I read in Luke 2 ~ "My eyes have seen salvation"
and in Psalm 91 ~ "my eyes have seen the wicked fall"
and in Acts 2 ~ "The Lord is always before me"

And truly, the fruit has been, to reconsider my thoughts and I have found supreme comfort.
The Comfort of the Holy Spirit, these three Chapters gave me assurance.

Father God,

We give thanks for Your Word. Where many signs and wonders are regularly done among the people by the hands of the believers.

The Togetherness of the generations of families alive in Christ Jesus.

The people hold each other in high esteem. And more than ever believers were added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women.

In the sight of Jesus the Lord, Abba, in His Holy Spirit, those even carried out as the sick into the streets and laid them on cots and mats, that as even the Name of Jesus, His Power and His Love might fall on them.

The people also gathered from the Nations around Jerusalem, they were the sick and those afflicted and they were all healed.

We pray for more Heaven on earth. We look at Today with Jesus. All things are Possible in Jesus. We thank you for the Lion and the Lamb. We Thank You that You are our Father. For all the days we will Sing Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty. Today.

We lift up our cares, our loved ones. The Joy of God. His Unfailing Love and Promises. His Blessing upon us as we pray. For our communities, Churches, States, Nation, and for all who call Upon Jesus. For the rescue of Christians from being burned alive. We thank You for Your Help and answered prayer. Glory to God who gives Life. Words of Life. Thank You, Thank You Holy, Holy, Holy Jesus. Amen.
