“And my people are bent to backsliding from me: though they called them to the most High, none at all would exalt him.” - Hosea 11v7
There is little sadder than to watch a person who is bent on his backsliding. Here it was an entire nation who decided to ignore God’s love and pleading and continue on in their sin. While all along there is an outward appearance of calling on the Lord, none would exalt Him in their lives by repenting of and forsaking their sin.
Sadly we are not exempt from the same situation today. There are those of God’s people who know they are sinning, who know that God offers restoration of fellowship, but they are bent on their backsliding. What a tragic situation to be in!
