"Quips From Hosea" #4

"Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart". (Hosea 4:11)


Our hearts, as Christians, belong to the Lord. Our attention, and allegiance belong to Him, and we must be careful to guard these precious things, and never allow ourselves to be given over to lusts and wine. Once we have developed a "taste" for wine, and began to "play the whore" against our God, our hearts turn to other things. Anything that removes us from our natural state is evil; it is controlling and wicked, and will eventually destroy us. A helpful anagram is taught to our children, but it is also important to adults:


We need to be alert, and watch for the subtle ruses of Satan; Some things we need to watch or guard:

Words;

Actions;

Thoughts;

Companions;

Hearts.


Guard your heart against the fiery darts of the devil.
