God promises that as Israel repents they would benefit from the dew resulting in the blossom.
“I will be like the dew to Israel; he will blossom like a lily.” (Hosea 14 v 5)
God is our source every day. Each morning when we wake He is there. He speaks to us, encourages us to move into the day in His presence and with His power. He is not only our sustenance, He is everything to us. You can do life in the most difficult of circumstances because of the dew every morning. He is here.
What does this dew produce? We prosper. We bloom like the flower of beauty. The lily was known as the flower that not only was fragrant but was the symbol of love. In the Song of Songs 2:1 “I am the rose of Sharon and the lily of the valleys” and if this is a representation of Christ then to blossom as a lily is to become like Him. But the lily is not only found amongst the valleys but also among thorns (SS 2:2). It doesn’t matter how difficult life is right now, even if you can describe it as valley or thorns, you can blossom as a lily, being like Christ, because of the dew.
What a wonderful promise this is!
