MICAH 6
DO JUSTICE, LOVE KINDNESS, AND WALK HUMBLY
God reminds the Israelites of the many times He has saved them. Although God’s response to Israel appears harsh, God has repeatedly responded with mercy and salvation despite their sinfulness.
Instead of false religiosity and meaningless sacrifices, God requires His people to do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly. The entire message of Micah is summarized in verse 6:8 as he reminds the Israelites of what God has desired for them all along.
Because many of the wealthy rulers of Israel have put their trust in riches instead of God, they will never be fully satisfied. Only God can bring the fullness of joy they are striving for!
Micah 6:8 - He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?
