“He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” This is a beautiful verse from Micah. In this study of Micah, David Pawson points out that the Bible is unique in that it is a book of history and geography, not just words and thoughts. God unfolded his revelation at particular times and places, and it is helpful to understand why. As a simple country man, Micah was very aware of social injustice, and the corruption of the city was influencing the country areas. Micah was greatly disturbed by what he saw going on among the people of God - idolatry, immorality and injustice. He also has good news for the distant future. David notes that God is both just and merciful. Justice gives us what we deserve whereas mercy gives us what we don’t deserve. He says that justice and mercy are not contradictory, but travel down the same road, but mercy goes further than justice. The cross demonstrates this supremely. David says Micah is a message for our time as well as his.
