My People are destroyed for lack of knowledge

Hosea was called by God as a prophet to the northern kingdom of Israel at a time when they had turned to Baal and turned away from the Lord. 

Instead of pure worship they were dabbling in magic and using shrine prostitutes! They were worshiping idols carved by their own hands! 

Rather than heed Hosea’s words they mocked him. 

We learn that the Lord turns His back on the priests for misleading the people......

While the charges against Israel aren’t the same as we face today since the Holy Spirit, who leads us into truth, isn’t welcome in many churches I sense the Lord would say the same thing. 

His people as weak, tired , discouraged as they’ve listened to sermons that tickle their ears rather than convict their hearts! They’ve sought after the next popular marketing program rather than be led by the spirit. 

The ABCs of Attendance, buildings and cash have replaced the only thing necessary which is the Holy Spirit!

I have not recently heard a teaching on baptism of the holy spirit or speaking in tongues unless I’ve given it!!! Yet. that is what Jesus told his disciples to wait for before they went out into the world.

Folks it’s time to give control back to the Holy Spirit and see a wave of revival sweep across our nation. But it starts in our hearts, turning from our wicked ways and seeking Him! Then He will hear us and heal our land. 

“my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. ‘Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.”
