Remarkably, the people in Hosea 8:12 were rejecting the Word of God for many of the same reasons people do so today. As Pastor Brett Meador dismantles the various excuses, we’ll see how powerful and trustworthy the Word of God is, and why we should be giving it great importance in our lives, as it draws us closer to Him daily. More important truths from Today’s Word.

Hosea Chapter 8 declares God’s coming judgment on Israel for their idolatry and rebellion. Though they claimed to know God, their hearts had turned to idols and self-made kings. As the prophet Hosea declares that sin results in judgment when we substitute man’s ways for God’s, Pastor Brett Meador reminds us our call is to wholehearted devotion to the Lord alone . . . in Today’s Word.

The courtroom-esque scene continues in Hosea Chapters 7 and 8, and as the evidence mounts, so does a clear picture of how the Jews rejected their Maker, and mixed with things opposed to God. Yet as we take notice of the punishment God applied in Today’s Word, Pastor Brett Meador challenges us take heed to avoid falling into these same traps, and to keep our eyes upon the Lord.

Before completion of the exodus of Israel from Egypt, it was Moses that told the Israelites “be sure your sin will find you out’ meaning you cannot run from sin’s consequences. But in Today’s Word, Pastor Brett Meador finds the prophet Hosea proclaiming God that was willing to heal Israel from their sin and its effects, but not as long as they acted as if God didn’t see their sin.

Hosea 5 presents God’s solemn indictment against the people of Israel for their unfaithfulness. And in Today’s Word Pastor Brett Meador offers a glimpse how the prophecies of Hosea apply not apply to Israel at the time, but to our day, and what is still to come as well. Yet the Father’s desire is to bring all men to repentance through the saving work of His Son, Jesus.

Hosea 5 delivers a solemn message of judgment as God exposed the pride and pursuit of the idols of Israel. Yet through the prophet Hosea, Pastor Brett Meador reveals how even in rebuke, God’s purpose is redemptive - to awaken hearts to repentance and restore His people through His mercy and steadfast love – and a message with great application to all believers . . . from Today’s Word.

The New King James translation of Hosea Chapter 4 includes the heading, God’s Charge Against Israel. And the "charge" details the sins of Israel that led to a spiritual and moral collapse. Though God’s rebuke revealed the consequences of turning away from Him, Pastor Brett Meador says, there was also a desire to draw His people back into true relationship with Him, in Today’s Word.

God cast an indictment in Hosea Chapter 4 against a nation that has forsaken the truth, is merciless, and has no knowledge of Him. And while this terrible judgment is technically for Israel in that day, the sins and consequences are still perfectly applicable to our day. But so is the assurance of God’s heart for us as Pastor Brett Meador shares from Today’s Word
