Statement for the Ages

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.”
- Micah 6:8 NIV

And what does the Lord require of you?

Act Justly... That is, to be honest; conforming to a standard of correctness; faithful to the original design.

Love Mercy... Forgiving; compassionate; withholding of the punishment that our sins deserve (Faithfulness - firm in adherence; utterly loyal).

Walk Humbly With God... To not think too highly of ones self; to bring low or prostrate; a show of submission; can imply meekness or gentleness.

Just as Micah shared this Word from the Lord to the people of Israel, this same message rings true today. Yet, we as a people, have seemingly forgotten what is required of us:

To act justly.
To love mercy.
To walk humbly with your God.

A statement for the ages...

Maybe if we made a bumper sticker, created a t-shirt, or imprinted a wrist band/rubber band we could better remember.

Keep the Faith... Carpe Diem

Mankind, He has told you what is good
and what it is the Lord requires of you:
to act justly,
to love faithfulness,
and to walk humbly with your God.”
- Micah 6:8 HCSB
