Micah 6: God’s Lawsuit Against His PeopleÂ
The mountains are called as witnesses.Â
God steps into the courtroom:Â
“My people, what have I done to you?Â
How have I wearied you? Answer me!”
He recounts the exodus, the miracles, the love—Â
then lists the charges: corrupt scales, violence, lies, idolatry.
The people panic: “Shall I come with thousands of rams?Â
Will the Lord be pleased if I give my firstborn for my sin?”
Micah’s answer rings through history:Â
“He has told you, O man, what is good;Â
and what does the Lord require of youÂ
but to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God?” (6:8)
Yet we can’t. And God knew it.Â
So seven centuries later, the One who perfectly did justice, loved mercy, and walked humbly came—born in Bethlehem (Micah 5:2)—to be our defense in the courtroom.
This Sunday: Stand trial with Israel… and watch Jesus take the verdict.
