What does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?
Micah 6:8
If you want to know the kind of life that God is calling you to lead, you won't find a better summary than Micah 6:8.
The best way to understand this verse is to get the big picture of the whole chapter. What God says to His people here is clearly a response to what they had been saying about him: “O my people, what have I done to you? How have I wearied you? Answer me!” (6:3).
These believers felt that God had been giving them unreasonable burdens to bear. All of us have times like this. Something goes wrong in your life or in your family, and you say, "What is God doing? Why is God inflicting this intolerable burden on me?”
Sometimes we feel that the Lord has let us down. That's how it was in Micah’s day. The people of God weren’t happy with Him, and there was a lot of complaining, “God has let us down. Instead of blessing, He has given us great burdens. He is making life difficult for us."
If you enjoy drama, you will love Micah 6. This is a courtroom drama. In any courtroom the natural place for God would be the position of the judge. But, in this scene, God is the prosecutor. God’s people had been making all kinds of charges and accusations against Him, and here God counters by bringing His own case against His people: "the Lord has an indictment against his people, and he will contend with Israel” (6:2).
Do you feel that the Lord has let you down? What would you want to say to Him?
