Hosea 11:1,4-6 - “When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out of Egypt I called my son…I led them with cords of human kindness, with ties of love. To them I was like one who lifts a little child to the cheek, and I bent down to feed them. “Will they not return to Egypt and will not Assyria rule over them because they refuse to repent? A sword will flash in their cities; it will devour their false prophets and put an end to their plans.
Jeremiah 31:3 - The LORD appeared to us in the past, saying: “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.
Lamentations 2:9 - Her gates have sunk into the ground; their bars he has broken and destroyed. Her king and her princes are exiled among the nations, the law is no more, and her prophets no longer find visions from the LORD.
Application:
· Have I rejected God's love?
· Am I one of God's elect because of His love?
· Does God cause loss of protection, leadership, written revelation and direction? Is the Lord still communicating with His people?
