Living for God’s Glory, Day 1

When God says no. Read Hosea chapter 1.

The life of Hosea has always been a reminder that God is about His glory, not our comfort. Reading his story is always a fresh reminder that our focus must be solely on God and His purpose and glory, not on our comfort.

Reading this first chapter, we see how God used Hosea’s life, marriage, and kids as a way to try and get the attention of those who have forsaken God. God uses these as examples to help the people return their focus to him.

What does God use in our lives to help keep us on track? How does God get our attention when we are off track? If we are focusing on anything else besides the glory of God, then we need the reminder that we must be living for God’s Glory each day.
