Judgment and Restoration, Day 1

No place to hide. Read Micah 1:1-7.

We’re going to start going through the book of Micah. Micah is a prophet whose visions from the Lord were recorded in the Old Testament. Micah was given prophecies and visions of what was to come, and he shared those with the people of Israel. Those visions included judgment and restoration. God used Micah to foretell what was coming for the people who had done wrong, but also to remind them that there would ultimately be restoration. People can find hope and promise in him now.

Reading these first 7 verses, we see the start of judgment. It becomes very clear that when sin and wrong is confronted by God, everything about that sin falls apart. God comes to earth in judgment and Micah describes even the mountains melting and the valleys splitting apart like wax in fire. The things that we tend to think of as being foundational and strong are absolutely nothing compared to the holiness of our incredible God.

We have to respect the awesomeness of who he is and recognize that everything he does is perfect. Therefore everything around him that is not perfect will be done away with. Do we see the incredible awesomeness of God and do we respect him for who he is in the universe? Sin has no place to hide from the Holy God.
