Daily Bible Reading - August 2020 God's Life-Giving Word of Forgiveness and Mercy

DAY 13 OF 31

  

August 13

Introduction

Earlier verses in chapter 9 describe how the people have turned away from God and have been unfaithful to him, and Hosea warns that the time for punishment has come. In today’s reading, Hosea describes the consequences of the people’s sinfulness, and the LORD pronounces judgment on the people. 

Scripture Reading 

Hosea 9:17—10:15

Today’s Key Verse: Hosea 10:12b

“It is time for you to turn to me, your LORD, and I will come and pour out blessings upon you.”

Reflect

Reread 10:11-15. The metaphor of a well-trained young cow is used to emphasize the people’s responsibility to be devoted to the LORD.  If they had remained faithful, what would they have received? In what did the people place their trust? What will be the consequences of their unfaithfulness?

Pray

Holy God, open my heart and mind to hear your voice and listen to you. Teach me to be obedient to your Word and keep me close in the safety of your love. Amen.

Prayer Concern

Those whose hearts are hardened

Tomorrow’s Reading 

Hosea 11:1-11: God’s love for the people is expressed.
