God loves us with true love, now that's his character.

God is such a redeeming God! Here, He is redeeming the sins of the people through the actions and obedience of Hosea. Otherwise it is actually a lesson of obedience. Gomer may not have got that lesson at first; just as we the children of God may need more than one lesson, but through the diligence of Hosea's obedience to God, love came through and won! As far as marriage goes, we must always first keep the commandment of love. Easier said than done. We definitely need Jesus and we need to remember "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me".
Timothy Wayne George's Hosea Chapter 1 comment on 6/27/2012, 7:25am...
Hosea is given a command to marry a harlot, named Gomer. I wonder how many of us would have obeyed God, and done that. Yet Hosea did obey God, and he learned what it was to love an unfaithful wife. Just as Israel had been the wife of God, and had been unfaithful to him God still had mercy on her. Marriage is holy and God wants us to honor our covenant relationship, even if one of the spouse's is unfaithful. So Hosea loved Gomer, and even though he put her out of the home after her unfaithfulness he later redeemed her and she became a faithful wife. This speaks of the Lord's great love for us as we have not been redeemed with silver or gold, but the precious blood of Jesus as a lamb without spot or blemish. God will avenge the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, there when the battle in Jezreel takes place God will fight for the people when they come against Israel in the latter days. Christ shall be the one head over them, and they shall be his people. He shall be their God, and thank God that he always keeps his promises. So even though this is yet to be fulfilled it will surely come to pass. So don't give up on your marriage no matter how difficult it may be God is still the restorer of lost things, and don't give up because God does not give up on us.

v4 the Kingdom of Israel CEASED to exist and He is no longer their God It is not to be confused with the current country of Israel of today.
v9 tells the Nation of Israel that they have fallen out of favor with GOD and they are no longer His chosen people (v4 for a little while) a period of time we have no idea when it will end, although we know when it began.)

This chapter shows how God is in total control over everything. His mercy has been shown for these people. This is all part of His plan for the larger scheme of things. God directs people even if one doesn't realize this. God is in front of everything,everywhere.

Hosea 13:16 "They shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed into pieces: and their women with child shall be ripped up".
What is the moral?
Mike7's Hosea Chapter 1 comment on 11/05/2010, 7:38pm...
Jezreel means "God will sow", Ammi means "People, or congregation" Ruhamah means "Those who are loved". What a mighty God we serve!!!
