"So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy" - Romans 9:16
2 Corinthians 1:3-11
One of the most frequently asked questions that Christians ponder is why God allows them to suffer trials and tribulations. While there are many reasons for God to allow trials and tribulations in our lives, Paul gives us two specific reasons in this first chapter of 2 Corinthians. Trials enable us to help others who are going through similar trials and God also uses them to help our faith to grow.
Micah 6:1-8, 13-16; 7:7-9, 18-20
Micah uses the imagery of a courtroom in chapter 6 to present the dispute that the LORD has with Israel because of their sins. The LORD asks how He has wronged Israel and they respond with offers of insincere religious activity. In chapter 7, however, Micah expresses his trust that the LORD will show mercy, forgiveness, and restoration to His people after the time of judgment has passed.
Micah 4:1-7; 5:2-4, 7-9
In our focal verses in chapters 4 and 5, Micah writes of the LORD’s promises to Israel that will be fulfilled in Christ’s millennial kingdom. The nations of the world will finally be at peace with one another as they come to worship the LORD in Jerusalem. The LORD will permanently regather Israel to dwell safely in their land, in contrast to the worldwide rise in anti-Semitism that we see today.
