Heavenly Father, what an amazing illustration of Israel's fall from grace and her eventual repentance and restoration is seen through the life of Hosea, Gomer, and their three children. Thank You that Your nation, whose idolatry caused them to be called: "Lo-Ammi, not My people," will one day repent, be rescued from the slave-market of sin, and be restored into a right relationship with You when they believe on Jesus, their Messiah. Thank You that I have also been rescued from enslavement to sin and have been born from above by faith in Jesus Christ, my God and Saviour. May I eschew all forms of evil and seek to do only that which is righteous in Your sight, for Your praise and glory. This I ask in Jesus' name, AMEN.
