Reaping the Whirlwind


Hosea 8:7  For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: it hath no stalk: the bud shall yield no meal: if so be it yield, the strangers shall swallow it up. 

Hos 8:11  Because Ephraim hath made many altars to sin, altars shall be unto him to sin. 
Hos 8:12  I have written to him the great things of my law, but they were counted as a strange thing. 
Hos 8:13  They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of mine offerings, and eat it; but the LORD accepteth them not; now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt. 
Hos 8:14  For Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and buildeth temples; and Judah hath multiplied fenced cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof. 

Israel had left their God for idols.  They had ignored their God and his commands. They had sown to the wind of disobedience.  Many in our nation have ignored the LORD and his commands. They consider abortion a right and a virtue. They have elected godless leaders who are enemies of God and his laws. America has sown the wind of godlessness and shall it not reap the whirlwind?  It is time for the Church to pray and repent for our nation.

1Pe 4:17  For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? 
1Pe 4:18  And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? 
1Pe 4:19  Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.

2Ch_7:14  If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
