Do not be jubilant like the other nations

Hosea 9:1-9
Punishment for Israel: Do not rejoice, O Israel; do not be jubilant like the other nations. For you have been unfaithful to your God;
They will not remain in the Lord's land; Ephraim will return to Egypt and eat unclean food in Assyria.
Even if they escape from destruction, Egypt will gather them, and Memphis will bury them.
Let Israel know this. Because your sins are so many and your hostility so great, the prophet is considered a fool, the inspired man a manic.
God will remember their wickedness and punish them for their sins.
It was probably at the height of the festival to mark the grape-harvest that Hosea spoke out. The people may call him a fool, but he knows he is God's watchman, and he will not hold his tongue.
Israel will become a slave-nation to Assyria, as they once were to Egypt.
Memphis: The pyramid tombs of Egypt's kings had stood there since the 26th century BC
Why?
People like to control everything in their life, so they suspect the way of the Lord. People saw foreigner has better life, and wondering why God did not give them the best, so they leave God and search the others.
God always gives us the best one, but most people does not know. Blessing and curse are the choice to everyone, we make decision and suffer the consequence.
How?
What is my mind and my heart when I am worshiping the Lord, does I really honor the Lord? Yes, God is my Lord, He is living God to me.
