Growth

“For he clave to the Lord, and departed not from following him, but kept his commandments which the Lord commanded Moses.
And the Lord was with him and he prospered whithersoever he went forth: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not.” 2 Kings 18:6,7

How do we bear fruit? How do we transform into what we were meant to be? Hoshea was a king in Israel and he ‘clave’ unto the Lord, I love that term. It’s like a child clinging to it’s mother, not letting go.

We were all created for amazing, beautiful things in life. Only by clinging to Jesus and following God’s Word, will we grow and prosper. Notice also that Hoshea did not submit to the edicts of the dominant government of the time? We are to serve the Lord with all our heart, all our mind, all our soul, and all our strength.
