Humility is easier said than done. Sometimes our pride creeps in subconsciously and we don’t even know it. How can we rethink the concept of humility in a way that would be attainable and practical? This message explores the idea of “walking humbly” by breaking down the text of Micah 6:8.

You can’t love something you are not familiar with. So when we are told that we are to “love mercy”, we need to make sure we are well-acquainted with it in our own lives.

As we continue in our What’s Good series from Micah 6:8, we’ll continue to build our foundation by complimenting our growing understanding of justice with a fresh look at mercy. What better way to celebrate Father’s Day than by celebrating the Father of mercies.

The prophet Micah reminds us succinctly what the natural response should be to a God who has been gracious and kind: a life that is purposed on justice, mercy, and walking with God.

Micah 6:8 is an inspirational verse about justice and mercy. It inspired a mellow, folksy worship song in the 80’s. But the actual tone is more of a kick in the butt: don’t pretend to be ignorant of injustice around us. Justice matters to God and therefore it should matter to us.
