Day 14 Hosea 1; Hosea 3; Hosea

Hosea 1  Hosea 3  Hosea
(Click the link to get to the passage) 

The church is described as the bride of Christ, yet like Israel in the days of Hosea, we as the church could be described "like an adulterous wife this land is guilty of unfaithfulness to the LORD".


In a time when the church worldwide faces many challenges, take time today to pray for the church. Where we stray from the truth of God, ask for his correction. Where there are those who suffer and live in fear of their lives because of following Christ, pray for protection. Where Christians flee their homes in fear of what might happen to them, pray for change in the political situation they live in. Remember today that we are part of a worldwide family - the children of God.

Almighty God,
you show to those who are in error the light of your truth,
that they may return to the way of righteousness:
grant to all those who are admitted
      into the fellowship of Christ's religion,
that they may reject those things
      that are contrary to their profession,
and follow all such things as are agreeable to the same;
through our Lord Jesus Christ.
