Summary
Lord, we ask that as we study the Psalms together today, that you would guide us by your spirit, open our hearts to what you would have us here and lead us, transform us, and mold us to live according to your word, according to your ways, and in the freedom of your love and mercy today and always. We're going to look first at verses 1 and 2 and then we're going to jump down to 7. Here the word of the Lord owe people of Israel for the Lord has an indictment against the inhabitants of the land. And every time I read it, you know, so if you read through the Bible, which this summer, you have a chance to read through the Bible in three months, when you read through the Bible and come across it, there is no question that it is jarring. So in chapter 1, verse 2, we read, when the Lord first spoke through Hosea, the Lord said to Hosea, go take for yourself a wife of Hortam and have children of Hortam. Let us turn to verse 1, where He says, return O Israel to the Lord your God for you have stumbled because of your iniquity.
