Wednesday: Ammi “My People”
In Romans 9:25 Paul quotes Hosea 2:23 , and in Romans 9:26 he quotes Hosea 1:10 . The background is that God instructed Hosea to take “a wife of whoredoms” ( Hos. 1:2 ) as an illustration of God’s relationship with Israel, because the nation had gone after strange gods.

Singing with Inspiration: Lesson 10 – Children of the Promise
Welcome to Singing with Inspiration for another week. Sunday’s lesson study shows us that “God needed a missionary people to evangelise a world steeped in paganism, darkness, and idolatry. Hymn 365, “O Zion, Haste” shows us this also. Hymn 607, “God of Grace and God of Glory” , Hymn 108, “Amazing Grace” and Hymn 109, “Marvellous Grace” are shown with the mercy God extends to all in Monday’s study, as do Hymn 110, “God’s Free Mercy Streameth” and Hymn 521, “Depth of Mercy” , culminating in Hymn 340, “Jesus Saves” as “He desires all men to be saved.” Salvation is shown in Tuesday’s study: Hymn 339, “God Is My Strong Salvation” , and Hymn 646, “To the Name That Brings Salvation” .

Romans 9:18 says, “Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will harden” How do we reconcile such a statement with God’s ever-loving care for His children?
