Hosea 13:4-5. Yet I am the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for there is no Saviour beside me. I did know thee in the wilderness, in the land of great drought.
The Israelites drew near to God when they wanted bread and water in the wilderness. God says, "I did know thee in the wilderness, in the land of great drought;" and the Lord might say to his people nowadays, "I did know you when you were very sick, when you were very poor, when you were in great trouble. You sought me then; how is it that you are trying to do without me now?"
