何西阿書三章1-5節                      神的小僕人
 
經文:
1 耶和華對我說:你再去愛一個淫婦,就是他情人所愛的,好像以色列人,雖然偏向別神,喜愛葡萄餅,耶和華還是愛他們。
2 我便用銀子十五舍客勒,大麥一賀梅珥半,買他歸我。
3 我對他說:你當多日為我獨居,不可行淫,不可歸別人為妻,我向你也必這樣。
4 以色列人也必多日獨居,無君王,無首領,無祭祀,無柱像,無以弗得,無家中的神像。
5 後來以色列人必歸回,〔或作回心轉意〕尋求他們的神耶和華,和他們的王大衛,在末後的日子,必以敬畏的心歸向耶和華,領受他的恩惠。
 
先知按着神的心意重新接納那背棄他的妻子,正如上帝接納我們這群罪人,我們的罪就是對上帝不忠,像先知的妻子背着丈夫行了淫亂的事。
 
今天是一個淫亂的世代,我們不單被物質控制,也被我們的自我淹沒了,各人行自己眼中看為正的事。神啊!求祢寬恕赦免我們,我們都需要祢。
 
Hosea 3:1-5
 
The prophet was asked to restore the relationship of his adulterous wife who betrayed him and turned against him.  It is the same way we turn against God and fail to be faithful and loyal to His instructions.
 
This is an adulterous age.  Just like the time of the Judges, people did what they thought was right and had forsaken the sovereignty of God. We are today corrupted by the vanity of richness and overwhelmed by our self-centeredness.  It is time we turn back to our sovereign Lord and ask for His mercy.  Lord forgive us for we all need you.
