Hosea 10:3
"For now they say, We have no king,
because we feared not the Lord;"
Israel had become an empty vine, they brought forth fruit unto themselves, and their heart became divided. Israel rejected all authority, and refused to trust anyone outside of themselves. Since they did not respect God's leading, why would they accept the authority of a king. They became a self-centered people and had no fear of God. As a result their oath and covenants were worthless, but they kept them as long as it was to their advantage.
Does this not sound familiar? Each day we see this rejection of authority all around us. Our Lord is still dealing with the same rejection of His authority. I'm not speaking of just Israel! It is in every corner of the world. The way I see things is this! Almost in every place that God has been raised up and praised in public, "It has been banned and we may as well say made illegal to Worship, Pray, or even try to share the Gospel Of Jesus Christ. And what burns me is, they always say it has been voted to keep prayer out of almost everything involving the government. But (Is. 9:6) tells us, that the government will be on His shoulders." Now there is places in the United States where you can not expose (have in sight) The Holy Bible.
My friends, God's Authority will not be ignored or just plain out rejected. No one can escape from the authority and power of God. We know Satan has his boundaries, "only" by God's authority and soon he will be destroyed forever. What ever happens around us comes from what we the people choose; whither it is good or bad. Let us remember this: Within our conscience is God's voice to the heart, of man's knowledge of the law of God, and His mercy of it. It's man's voice to his heart reminding himself of God's grace and mercy. " Let us not forget our God, Our Creator, and Our Savior."
Amen!!
