#HarborCBR Micah starts Monday with City Bible Reading! Join me for 7 chapters of honest¦ https://t.co/cyeKXEbV4k
MIC1-Sin in the north infected the south and brings judgment. The hint of hope for us is if the judge goes stripped and naked-v8. #HarborCBR
MIC2-Condemnation to those who covet then steal what belongs to others, to those who steal the lives and future of others. #HarborCBR
MIC2,2-The people of God hate to hear His voice and disbelieve God's prophets. They are the opposite of the Ninevites in Jonah. #HarborCBR
MIC2,3-v12-13 sounds like hope, but actually this is God leading Israel's enemies to destroy them and exile them as captives. #HarborCBR
MIC3-Condemnation comes because of depraved rulers. King, priest, and prophet take bribes and feast on the lives of the people. #HarborCBR
MIC3,2-v8 God's Spirit is absent in the rulers, present in Micah. God's word comes w/power and the renewing justice of His Spirit. #HarborCBR
MIC4-Hope (finally!) comes "in the latter days." Not code for the end times in our future, it means after Israel is judged. #HarborCBR
MIC4,2-This nation-renewal will gather international community w/the disenfranchised, end war, remove fear, exalt God and His word! #HarborCBR
MIC4,3-Jesus brought these renewing blessings and calls His people to work hard to make them a reality today! #HarborCBR
MIC4,4-The end of v2 makes me think about John 1:14. #JesusOnEveryPage #HarborCBR
MIC5-Nation-renewal will happen thru a leader. Jesus fulfills this ultimately (Mt 2:6), but v5 sounds like first it's Babylon. #HarborCBR
MIC5,2-v1 is exactly what happened to Jesus in Matthew 27:30. #JesusOnEveryPage #HarborCBR
MIC6-God rescues us in grace, then calls us to live humbly grateful by pursuing justice. #HarborCBR
MIC6,2-v14-15 Frustration and lack of satisfaction with life are sometimes judgment from God. #HarborCBR
MIC7-Thru suffering(even judgment) lies hope on the other side for those who love God. It's sure because of God's forgiving love. #HarborCBR
