Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the coasts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that travails with child together: a great company will return here. They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.

HOSEA / MINISTRY 760 – 715 BC

HOUSE OF ISRAEL

THE CURSE

  • When the Lord first spoke through Hosea, the Lord said to Hosea, “Go, take to yourself a wife of harlotry and have  children of harlotry; for the land commits flagrant harlotry,  forsaking the Lord.”  So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.  And the Lord said to him, “Name him Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will punish the house of Jehu for the bloodshed of Jezreel, and I will put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel.  On that day I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.”

Hosea 1: 2-5 NASB

THE PROMISE OF RESTORATION

MICAH / MINISTRY 742 – 687 BC


THE HOUSE OF JUDAH


THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL

THE CURSE

  • Now hear this, you heads of the house of Jacob and rulers of the house of Israel, Who despise justice and twist everything that is straight, Who build Zion with bloodshed, and Jerusalem with malice. Her leaders pronounce judgment for a bribe, Her priests teach for pay, and her prophets divine for money. Yet they lean on the Lord, saying, “Is the Lord not in our midst? Catastrophe will not come upon us.” Therefore on account of you, Zion will be plowed like a field, Jerusalem will become a heap of ruins, and the mountain of the temple will become high places of a forest.

Micah 3:9-12 NASB

THE PROMISE OF RESTORATION

  • “On that day,” declares the Lord, “I will assemble those who limp and gather the scattered, those whom I have afflicted. I will make those who limp a remnant, And those who have strayed a mighty nation, And the Lord will reign over them on Mount Zion From now on and forever.

Zechariah 14:16-18 NASB

THE PROMISE OF RESTORATION

  • “Ephraim will be like a mighty man, And their heart will be glad as if from wine; Indeed, their children will see it and be glad, Their heart will rejoice in the Lord. “I will whistle for them to gather them together, For I have redeemed them; And they will be as numerous as they were before. “When I scatter them among the peoples, They will remember Me in far countries, And they with their children will live and come back. “I will bring them back from the land of Egypt And gather them from Assyria;And I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon Until no room can be found for them. “And they will pass through the sea of distress And He will strike the waves in the sea, So that all the depths of the Nile will dry up; And the pride of Assyria will be brought down And the scepter of Egypt will depart. “And I will strengthen them in the Lord, And in His name they will walk,” declares the Lord.

Zechariah 10:7-12 NASB
