Rejoice in God’s victory over death!
Scripture reading for September 26th: Hosea 10-14
Key Scriptures: Hosea 13:14 “I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death. Where, O death, are your plagues? Where, O grave, is your destruction?”
Hosea had a Word of God for the remnant that would trust in Him. God, who alone had the power over death, would ransom them from the grave and redeem them from death! God asked two questions of “death” and the “grave”. The answer was that “death” and the “grave” would have no plague or power to destroy God’s people or to negate God’s power over them! This verse was quoted by Paul in the New Testament and given to encourage Christ’s church about the certain victory they have in Christ!
Rejoicing in our victory through Christ: “”Where, O death is your victory? Where, O death is your sting?” The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ!” (1st Corinthians 15:55-56)
