Hosea 8 [2] How convenient of them to only call on God when they're in trouble, once again showcasing their fickleness. We aren't any different. We don't want Him, only what He can do for and give us, and that's why we utter a bunch of empty words thinking they will twist God's arm. But God is not moved, because actions speak louder than words. May we do well to remember the words Jesus spoke in Matthew 7:21-23. Verse 21 "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father Who is in heaven.
