In today’s episode, host Hunter invites us to journey through the pages of Scripture together on this fifth day of July. We’ll read from Hosea chapters 2–5 and Hebrews chapter 2, encountering stirring images of God’s relentless love and the cost of redemption. As we hear about God's heartbroken response to Israel’s waywardness and Hosea’s call to buy back his unfaithful wife, we’re reminded of the ultimate price that God has paid for our freedom through Christ. Hunter unpacks these powerful passages, encouraging us to embrace the love, hope, and new life God offers, and wraps up with a time of prayer and reflection. Whether you’re a regular or new to the podcast, this episode will point your heart toward the One who truly loves you and holds the words of life. TODAY'S DEVOTION: We’ve been bought back. We’ve been fought for, and he has won. Hosea paints a picture for us of what our rebellion and turning away from God looks like. He uses strong language—comparing that rebellion to the anguish of a spouse betrayed. But the story doesn’t end with judgment or separation. Hosea is called to do something remarkable: to love again, to return to his unfaithful spouse, to go and buy her back. Hosea 3:2 says, “So I bought her back…” Hosea had to pay a price to reclaim what was lost, to see reconciliation where rejection made sense. But someone far greater than Hosea has bought us back. Jesus has paid the ultimate price for us—his own blood. God, in Christ, lowered himself, put on flesh, and entered our story. He suffered and died, breaking the power of the devil, the power of fear, death, and the grave. By dying, he paid the price for our freedom—the freedom to live, to hope, to love, to be made new. Because of that love, and because of that sacrifice, we are no longer slaves to our rebellion or shame. We are no longer just people who receive an example to follow—we receive his Spirit to live within us. The very love that won us back now lives in us and enables us, not only to imitate, but to participate in God’s love and life. We are enabled to love, to live, to die to ourselves, and to rise to newness of life with Christ. That’s my prayer for myself today—that I will know this freedom and love well, that I will remember the price that was paid, and live in the joy of the One who is with me now. That is my prayer for my own soul, for my family, my wife, my daughters and my son. And that is my prayer for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Gracious and everlasting God, you have brought us through the shadow of night into the promise of a new day. You go before us with your mercy, sustain us by your grace and keep us from wandering paths of fear or pride. Let every word we speak and every step we take be formed by the goodness of Christ. O Lord, gather your people far and near. May every tribe and tongue come to know your peace. Let justice roll like a river and healing flow where there has been division. Pour out your spirit upon all flesh and bring us closer to the day when your kingdom comes in fullness through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen. OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.
