Hosea is a prophet who walked his talk! He loved the wayward woman and had children through her. One of them is names Lo-Ruhama meaning I will not show compassion. Having gone through major confrontation, having pronounced the judgement, now he is pouring out God's love. the Lord's judgement is reversed, now they will receive compassion from Yahweh. The call to Israel is to return to the L...

The word "die" occurs about 300 times in the Bible (NIV). v1 ends saying Ephraim 'died'! How did he die? Because of Baal worship. When anyone moves away from worshipping the true and only God death comes, first spiritual and physical death later. Jacob or Israel says, I am going to die, but do not bury me here instead take my body to the land of Canaan. Hope of Canaan takes away...

I woke up with a vision of Psalm 100 and listings of stock exchange over subscribed for booze manufacturers. What that means is people are not influenced by what is happening in the world. They will seek pleasure and self fulfilment in these last days. But the church is called to obey the seven commands in Psalm 100 which will help them to be part of worship happening in Revelation 5, 7 and 15 Ple...

If you read Hosea 10 in KJV, you will not find the Lord's name mentioned much. Instead you will find the personal pronouns "He" and "I" but you need to distinguish when it refers to the Lord and when it refers to others in the text. So, what do we infer from it? This chapter deals mainly with Israel's sin. Israel says "we don't have a king because we did not re...

Ephraim is used 6 times and Israel is used 3 times in this chapter. Same way the name of God, the Lord is used 5 times and God is used 4 times. A simple addition gives us the number 9 for each of Ephraim and the Lord. That is the first theme "the relationship between the Lord and Israel"! Three times the words " the house of the Lord " is used in vs 4,6,15. When they reject the...

Hosea the prophet summarizes his / Lord's charge against Israel in these words. How did they sow wind and reap a whirlwind?

Prophet Hosea continues his brilliant barrage of words and pictures to lift up the sins of Israel. Sin is forming a barrier for God to heal them. They are like burning oven with adultery, idolatry, etc. His use of powerful similes and metaphors makes it very colourful. v8 Ephraim is a flat cake not turned over, v11 Ephraim is like a dove, easily deceived and senseless, I will throw a net and catch...

Hosea goes on Israel's faithlessness until chapter 11 with all force using his great imagination, vocabulary and paints great picture of Israel's sin. In this chapter the nation wants to return to God but their heart is not serious with matters of God, has a shallow knowledge, no desire to pursue God, hunt him down, chase him with heart hunger! Please stay tuned in. We pray this teaching b...

The Lord is bringing a charge against the Israelites: no faithfulness, no love and no knowledge of God! How many of us would be able to talk about who our God is if someone from another faith would ask us? How many minutes would we last talking about Him. This is a general lack in the modern church. That is also the main charge against Priests of his time. May I say it could be a reason for many s...

Hosea is mentioned as a minor prophet because of the length of his prophecy. His ministry stretched for over 60 years like that of Isaiah, Amos and Micah. His life is a message. He was asked by the Lord to marry a prostitute. Some think it happened only in his mind meaning in his visions but not in life. But many commentators feel that he in deed married Gomor (meaning perfect ) who probably was f...

When Nebuchadnezzar invaded Judah, the Lord gave Jehoiakim and Judah into his hands. Why? The Lord who gave victory to Gideon and his men with 300 to fight a vast army, let 7000 fit and ready for war be taken away to Babylon. That is because of the rebellion, sin and idolatry of Judah as per Jeremiah the prophet. Please stay tuned in. We pray this teaching blesses you! Please contact us via the li...

Nebuchadnezzar invaded Judah three times: 605 BC, 597 BC and 587 BC. He had taken captives from his invasion in 605 and Daniel and his friends were part of it. He wanted to recruit people from among the captives to serve in his kingdom. Their geographical location changed. Their names were changed. Probably their dressing is changed. Re-education began. Culture was being remodelled. Their food and...

There are two Hebrew words to express the meaning of "Blessing": Asher or Ashreka and Barak. In verse 1 and 2 we see the Hebrew words used are Asher and Ashreka. These are used for men and by men. When someone is blessed he becomes an object of envy. When God blesses man, the word used is Barak as in v4. also, the word Barak is used as an expression of praise to the Lord! Man has to work...

The entrance to the garden of Eden was on the East. Entrance to the Tabernacle and the Temple in OT was facing the East. The opposite is true about non-biblical temples. After the fall of Adam, it was never God's idea to keep him out for ever from the tree of life. The whole Bible talks about the great length to which Yehova-Yeshua has gone to woo the mankind to mend the relationship between G...

The church has abandoned the Holy Spirit. He will guide and protect. If we have time for God, God has time for...

Please stay tuned in to get the secret of victory! We pray this teaching blesses you! Pl...

King David has gone through emotional hurts several times in his life. One of those is talked about in 1Sam25. He and his men had kept watch over the large herds and flocks of Nabal. When it was time for shearing, David sent his men to ask for a return of favour while Nabal was rejoicing over his multiplied blessing. Nabal insulted David's men. And, David wanted to get even with Nabal and went...
