Prayer based on Hosea 12

Lord of Hosts, how could Your people have ever have thought that it was wise to treat powerful nations as trusted fathers? How could it have ever seemed wise to forsake You, the only true God and Father of Your people? Yet we have loved sin. The nations care little about our iniquity, but You are holy. You have spoken through the prophets. You have made it clear to Your loved ones that we must live according to Your Word. Rescue us not only from our enemies, but also from our rebellious sin nature and from our disgraceful deeds.
