DAILY BREAD OF LIFE

(KJV.)  HOSEA 6:1-3

(i)  COME, and let us return unto the LORD:  for he hath torn, and he will heal us;  he hath smitten, and he will bind us up.
(2)  After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up,  and we shall live in his sight.
(3)  Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.


CALL TO REPENTANCE

Brethren, the voice of Prophet Hosea is calling us to come unto the LORD of hosts, our maker through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior; no matter how astray we have gone away from him or how broken up our lives seems to be today;  we will become healthy and well again; for he will restore our souls from set backs and troubles of this world;  when we walk away from him, we receive enemy attacks and punishments for living in disobedience of his words;  however, the LORD is merciful and gracious, he will not turn his face against us if we return unto him, or will allow us to suffer in the hands of the enemy forever but will redeem our souls back into salvation, grace and life everlasting.


WORDS OF INSPIRATION:

Case in point,  when our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, suffered and died and went into the grave, his enemies thought his death was the end of his ministry;  surprisingly, his death and resurrection was the beginning of the new era of his ministry;  for he revived back to life again in the tomb and also, revived all the saints that slept in bondage of the enemy back to life again, and they went into the city to show themselves unto many, (Matt. 27:52-53);  this phenomenon was the beginning of Christianity; for they could not kill the testimonies of those who saw the dead men walking alive again;  however, in this text Prophet Hosea says  (i)  after two days will he revive us;  regardless of our brokenness and troubles in life today, Jesus will revive us again, he already been to the grave on our behalves to regenerate our lives back to normal, we just have to believe in him as Lord and Savior; and we will have awakening spirits and live happily again forever;  (ii)  in the third day he will raise us up,  yes, he did already!  by his death and resurrection, today, we are moving forward into our destinations in life by the resurrection power of the Holy Spirit;  let us know that setbacks are temporaries, if we truly believe in what he had already done in our lives by his sufferings, death and resurrection, then we should not pay attention to evil works of our enemies but believe in him to take absolute control of all situations; when Jesus rose up from the dead, we rose up with him and by his blood we overcome all setbacks forever;  (iii)  and we shall live in his sight;  when Jesus redeems our souls from bondage of sins into his marvelous lights, if we believe in him as our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, we will receive regeneration in the faith into his righteousness and live in godliness thereafter with newer spirits, newer attitudes  etc.  the resurrection power of the Holy Spirit will guide and teach us all things, so we continue to walk in faith through the righteousness of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ forevermore.

Fruits of thought,  when the Lord redeems our souls from all troubles and we receive rebirth, grace and salvation; our lives will changes forever and the world will know that we are redeemed of the LORD of hosts through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, if we continue to pray and believe in him and what he did for us on the Cross of Calvary, read the scriptures daily, worship him in the beauty of his holiness we are on our ways to eternity, for  (a)  his going forth is prepared as the morning, heavenly blessings will come upon us as morning dew to flourish our souls as greener grasses of the fields that withers no more;  (b)  and he shall come unto us as the rain,  he will manifest in our lives in different kinds of ways, he will shower us with multiple blessings from heavenly places, (c) as the latter and former rain unto the earth, he will come unto us with series of activities signifying blessings of the end times and what was supposed to be ours before but was taken away will also manifest in our lives, because, we are redeemed of the LORD of hosts through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.


CONCLUSION:

Brethren, we all know that following the Lord is not easy, in the past, we were thought rules and regulations, on how we should live certain lives, talk certain ways, pray certain prayers, associate with certain people but not with others etc... however, when Jesus Christ came to planet earth, he did not disassociate himself from humanity, he came to receive all who are heavy in laden into his rest, he was with evil people, prostitutes, drunkards, fishermen, tax collectors, blind men, lepers, crazy people, unbelievers and even betrayers; though he was without sin, he did not claim to be more righteous than others, though he had wisdom and knew all things and knew who he was, he still ate with betrayers and unbelievers; throughout his ministry on earth, he humbled himself even to dead on the cross to redeem all souls from bondage of sins to freedom and grace for those who believe in him as Lord and Savior;  today, let us not worry about our appearances or rules and regulations on how to approach his throne of grace but with humbleness and pureness of hearts, let us proceed into his arms of blessings, grace, peace and life everlasting.  Amen and Amen!
