Micah 6:6-8 NLT
[6] What can we bring to the LORD? Should we bring him burnt offerings? Should we bow before God Most High with offerings of yearling calves?
[7] Should we offer him thousands of rams and ten thousand rivers of olive oil? Should we sacrifice our firstborn children to pay for our sins?
[8] No, O people, the LORD has told you what is good, and this is what he requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
Reflection . . .
Verse 8 is perhaps one of the most well known verses of the minor prophets. For God’s people it was and still is His desire for us . . .
He has told us what is Good!
This is what He requires of us:
- Do what is right!
- Love mercy!
- Walk humbly with God!
If we do these three things, we will always be on the right track and in right relationship with God and with others!
