Press On
The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. (See John 10:10a AMP) In Hosea 4:6 (NLT), the LORD said, His people are being destroyed because they don’t know Him. “So let us know and become personally acquainted with Him; let us press on to know and understand fully the [greatness of the] LORD [to honor, heed, and deeply cherish Him]. His appearing is prepared and is as certain as the dawn, and He will come to us [in salvation] like the [heavy] rain, like the spring rain watering the earth.” (Hosea 6:3 AMP)
“I said, ‘Plant the good seeds of righteousness, and you will harvest a crop of love. Plow up the hard ground of your hearts, for now is the time to seek the LORD, that he may come and shower righteousness upon you.’” —Hosea 10:12 (NLT)
