The prophet Hosea found in the soul the blessedness of the believer in Christ as communicated in the words on Hos. 14:2 above. He implores that the Lord should take away all evildoing and get them benevolently. This is unequivocally what the Lord has improved the situation us in Christ. Hosea went further to state " so will we render the calves of our lips." What are the calves of our lips?
Calves are youthful bulls which were utilized for sacrifices. Hosea 's proclamation the "calve of our lips" implies he comprehended there was a sort of sacrifice that originates from his lips. He perceived that there was a calve, or a sacrificial bull in his mouth. He discloses to us what this sacrificial bull is in a similar verse above with the words "take with you words." The expressions of our mouth are spiritual sacrifices. The Apostle Paul lets us know in the book of Hebrews "By him in this way let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God constantly, that is, the product of our lips expressing gratefulness to his name" (Heb. 13:15 KJV). He calls our expressions of praise and thanksgiving the product of our lips, like what the prophet Hosea called the "calve of our lips."
There is a sacrifice, well-charming to God in your mouth. It is a sacrifice of praise, thanksgiving, and love. Offer unto the Lord the sacrifice of praise constantly!
The sacrificial calves of the OT were shadows of the genuine sacrifices to come( Heb. 10:1). Would you be able to see one reason why the Lord says you are the genuine admirer in Christ?
Set this Word to work in your life from today onward. Your life ought to be a living sacrifice, an interminable sacrificial table of praise and love from your mouth but also from your heart! ( Eph. 5:19).
