Hosea 2:16

-


 The Lord promised that one day He will fix the heart of His people . They will no longer call him master or other words of fear. They had become associated with Baal worship and thus were no longer fit to be used in the worship of Yahweh. They will finally,  truly love Him and call Him, my man or my husband, and serve Him out of  love.  The word Ishi also carries a meaning of ‘my salvation’.  What a wonderful thing to be in Love with our Lord!  What a wonderful thing for Israel to finally be totally devoted to her God! What a wonderful time when we too will be fully devoted to Him!  We can , along with them at that time, truly say for the first time honestly and with no reservations  that we love Him and will keep ourselves ONLY unto HIM.


Only then will we truly, fully keep the first commandment.

“and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.”

‭‭Mark‬ ‭12‬:‭30‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas this year.  So thankful that several years ago, the Lord gave me the best gift I could have asked for, the salvation of my soul.  Such an underserved gift, but one given to me by God because of His great love.  Not because of what I was, but in spite of what I was.  The only thing that I had to do to receive it was to admit I was a sinner (not hard to prove) , and that Jesus (God in the flesh) came to live a sinless life and to die on the Cross for my sin and the sin of all the world.  So grateful  to be one of the “whosoever” will.  Thank you Father God, for the gift of your son, and for your Mercy and Grace! If you want to know Jesus as your savior, all you have to do is ask!  Most things in life are dependent on who you are, or who you know.  How much money or education you have?  Where you are from, or what color you are?  What you have done, or what you can do?  Whether you are docile, or aggressive?  How tall you are, or what sex you are?  S

It won't be very long - Morgan Williams (1928)   It won't be very long till this short life shall end, It won't be very long till Jesus shall descend; And then the dead in Christ from beds of clay shall rise To meet the Lord and King up yonder in the skies. Refrain: It won't be very long, It won't be very long Till Jesus shall appear, That day is drawing near; Will you be ready then To meet the ransomed throng? Get ready for that day, It won't be very long. It won't be very long till here we cease to roam, It won't be very long till all the saints get home; And then with smiling face we'll walk the streets of gold, And sing the Savior's praise where saints are never old. [Refrain] It won't be very long till burdens we lay down, It won't be very long till we'll receive a crown; And then we'll should and sing with angels round the throne, And when we meet up there, we'll know as we are known. [Refrain] It won't be very long
