Day 178 | Hosea 9:1–14:9
As Hosea closes, God’s heart is laid bare—grieved, yet full of mercy. He remembers how vibrant Israel once was, like fresh grapes in the desert, but now they’ve become as vile as the idols they chase. Still, the Lord pleads: “Return to Me, and I will heal your faithlessness.” Though judgment is near, this chapter is a final call to repentance, filled with images of restoration, flourishing, and divine love. In these closing verses, we see not just a warning, but a beautiful promise—one that still echoes today.
Hosts: Derek Ewalt, Noah Sidhom
