My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; because you [the priestly nation] have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you that you shall be no priest to Me; seeing you have forgotten the law of your God, I will also forget your children. Amplified Bible. Hosea 4:6
Let me quote it from the KJV
Hos 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
From the verse, it’s written my people are destroyed because of lack of knowledge
The verse never said my people are destroyed because they don’t pray or because they don’t fast!!!
Its Reads: BECAUSE OF LACK OF KNOWLEDGE Wow… Now the issue is, how can one obtain knowledge if he or she doesn’t read?
Many are praying some kind of prayers which heaven doesn’t endorse because they lack knowledge..
Anyone who carry heavenly knowledge pray heavenly prayers!
The verse added that, seeing thou has forgotten the law of thy God Yes!!! Because they refuse to READ
Until a man discovers reading wide is the door to greater accomplishment and discoveries, he will continue to remain in darkness...
There’s this saying that, if you want to hide something from a black man, put it in a book
Yes and it’s true… The white are ahead of we the black just because they read!… Blacks gossips with their leisure time…
Ignorance is very expensive… Avoid it today! Read and Read till you become a reading Material for others…
So we need to read to have knowledge. But why didnt solomon read to have knowledge but prayed for it please?
Good question… Solomon read and discovered the power of prayer… Because, he who don’t know or hasn’t discovered that prayer works won’t even pray.. only those who have discovered the power of prayer pray… And again, God asked Solomon what he wanted, but because Solomon was having knowledge about the power of wisdom… He answer God he needs wisdom to rule his people.. This sounds to reasoning that, Solomon was a great reader… Secondly, in the book of proverbs, you will hear him say a wise man will search and seek for an increase knowledge…..that’s Solomon for you… It takes knowledge to pray heavenly prayers..
