Listen to our text today, Hosea 5:7:
They have dealt faithlessly with the Lord;
for they have borne alien children.
Now the new moon shall devour them with their fields. — Hosea 5:7
How do you raise a generation that doesn't know God? You start by drifting yourself.
"They have dealt faithlessly with the Lord…"
Israel wasn't engaging in loud rebellion. It was a quite unfaithfulness. A slow shift away from God in a time of prosperity,ty while still keeping the appearance of religion. And over time, that drift produced something.
"They have borne [undiscipled] children."
They raised a generation that wore crosses on their neck and tattooed verses on their body—but had no knowledge of God.
What one generation tolerated, normalized, and modeled shaped the generation that came after them. And the result was predictable. A generation disconnected from God.
This is how it still happens. We don't have to reject God to lose Him. We just have to stop living as if He matters. And eventually, the next generation mirrors it.
But note the warning:
"Now the new moon shall devour them…"
In other words, their meaningless religious activities—their rhythms, their gatherings, their routines—would not save them. Their worship of creation rather than the Creator would fail them.
So what are you passing on? Not just in what you say, but in how you live. Because you are always discipling. And the next generation will not become what you hope. They will become what you model. If you want to raise a generation that knows God, then it's time to be someone who actually walks with Him.
And it's never too late.
DO THIS:
Identify one way you can model real, consistent faith today—at home, at work, or in your relationships.
ASK THIS:
- What kind of faith am I modeling daily?
- Would someone following my life grow closer to God?
- Am I raising people who know God—or just know about Him?
PRAY THIS:
God, help me live a faith that is real and visible. Shape my life so that what I pass on leads others to truly know you. Amen.
