644. Hosea - Chapter 8 (#1) - The Calf of Samaria Shall be Broken in Pieces - September 19, 2024

Welcome to Wisdom Today with Bill Kelley. Today we will be going over Proverb 19. I will then key in on verse 12 - The king's wrath is like the roaring of a lion, But his favor is like dew on the grass. Friends, we do not have a king in the United States, but they did during the time of the prophet Hosea. The first part of this verse definitely screams that you do not want the wrath of a king directed towards you. Likewise, his favor is like dew on the grass - that sounds lovely! On today's lesson we will continue our study of the minor prophet Hosea. I will begin this podcast by reviewing the three points from yesterday's podcast. Then we will go over the first six verses of Chapter 8. By the end of today's lesson there are three things I ask that you consider: 1. He shall come like an eagle against the house of the Lord. 2. They set up kings, but not by me. 3. The calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces. Scripture verses referenced on today's lesson: Exodus 32: 1-4; Romans 8:6 Call to Action: Are you being led by the Holy Spirit? If you are led by the Spirit, many times you will literally be unaware of the words that come out of your mouth.
