Sound the Alarm - Hosea 8

When I was a kid and I made a bad choice I was always told that I have to live with the consequences of my decision. Now as an adult I realize how true that is. Israel was living with the consequences of their decisions with their choices of rulers, their foreign policy and their religious practices. I love how Hosea is quick to point this out. It's easy to look at the country you live in and see the same mess of bad decisions. I challenge you to make it personal. Who is the ruler in your life? Is it Jesus? What is your foreign policy (worldliness)? Do your spiritual disciplines look like what Jesus did?
