下載應用程序Daily Bible Reading – April 2021, God’s Word of Mercy and Forgiveness預覽
April 7
Introduction
Israel’s unfaithfulness to the LORD is compared to that of an unfaithful wife. In Hosea’s time, many of the people were honoring the Canaanite god Baal because they believed Baal fertilized the earth with rain. The chapter concludes with the LORD’s declaration of love for Israel and a promise to make the people prosperous.
Today’s Scripture Reading
Hosea 2:2-23
Today’s Key Verse: Hosea 2:23b (GNT)
I will say, “You are my people,” and they will answer, “You are our God.”
Reflect
Why is Israel to be punished? How is this punishment described? The LORD’s harsh words of punishment are balanced by the LORD’s promise to help Israel in the future (verses 14-23). What does this hopeful future look like?
Pray
Lord God, you are faithful and true. You alone are my God, and I acknowledge you as Lord of my life. Draw me close to you and teach me your ways. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Couples seeking to be reconciled
Tomorrow’s Reading
Hosea 3:1—4:10: Hosea is told to love his unfaithful wife.
