Hosea 12:7-14
The merchant uses dishonest scales and loves to defraud. Ephraim boasts, “I am very rich; I have become wealthy. With all my wealth they will not find in me any iniquity or sin.”
I have been the Lord your God ever since you came out of Egypt; I will make you live in tents again, as in the days of your appointed festivals.
But Ephraim has aroused his bitter anger; his Lord will leave on him the guilt of his bloodshed and will repay him for his contempt.
The people deride(嘲笑) the prophets of their own day. They need the reminder that it was through a prophet that God brought the nation into being.
Why?
God let Israel live in tents again, they will not live in the town, but like their forefather live in desert, to be a wandering tribe a again. For they has aroused God's anger.
What effort I have done to the Lord for my righteousness life.
We need to pursue the success of Spiritual, instead of the dishonest scale and defraud. Get much money doesn't mean success, but the success of spiritual life.
How?
Check my life again, and humble before the Lord, repent to the Lord what I have done.
