There is no savior besides Me.
Hosea 13:4-14, Yet I have been the LORD your God since the land of Egypt; and you were not to know any god except Me, for there is no savior besides Me. I cared for you in the wilderness, in the land of drought. as they had their pasture, they became satisfied, and being satisfied, their heart became proud; therefore, they forgot Me. So I will be like a lion to them; like a leopard I will lie in wait by the wayside. I will encounter them like a bear robbed of her cubs, and I will tear open their chests; there I will also devour them like a lioness, as a wild beast would tear them. It is your destruction, O Israel, that you are against Me, against your help. Where now is your king that he may save you in all your cities, and your judges of whom you requested, “Give me a king and princes”? I gave you a king in My anger, and took him away in My wrath. The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up; his sin is stored up. The pains of childbirth come upon him; he is not a wise son, for it is not the time that he should delay at the opening of the womb. Shall I ransom them from the power of Sheol? Shall I redeem them from death? O Death, where are your thorns? O Sheol, where is your sting? Compassion will be hidden from My sight.
God brought prosperity to the nation and in return the people forgot Him and succumbed to pride. In our own nation we have been incredibly blessed by His hand, and so many have this same pride. Will He be pleased to bring revival in our own time or will our nation go down to its own pride?
Rescue us from foolish pride; we pray for revival in our own time to redeem us from destruction!
