Micah 6: 9-16; Israel's Guilt and Punishment

Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.

I find it very fitting that just a couple of days before Palm Sunday we here read a passage about judgment. On Palm Sunday Jesus rides into Jerusalem to save the world from sin. Without that we would suffer the punishment and judgment we read about in Micah. This is a great time for us to thank God, really thank Him, for sending Jesus into the world to save us, especially as we read about what would have happened to us if God did not send Jesus. As we approach Palm Sunday and Holy Week I encourage to take time to think about the punishment we would have received were it not for Jesus. Think about that and be thankful for what we did receive: Jesus Christ, our Savior. God bless you.
