Hosea 14:1

Hosea 14:1. O Israel, return unto the LORD thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity.

When we fall by sin, we must regain our comfort by going back to the place where we lost it: "Return unto the Lord thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity." Then, to help us return, God, through his servant, actually makes a prayer for us.
