Micha 6:8

  He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? Micha 6:8

There are times in my life, where I have wondered what God is doing in my life. And what am I supposed to be doing in this season in which I find myself.

Friends, the Holy Word of God, is where we find our answers. Because indeed, he has given us the answers for our lives there. And I think the very basic in our walk with Him comes from Micha 6:8.

We may not always know where we are going. Or what we are to do. But we do need to practice our faith. To let His Word be our guide.

If we don't, then what good is just reading the Bible? It's our self-help book. Unlike those of the world that wants to teach us the wrong ways to go, we can have the confidence that the Bible is the first place we should go. And maybe the only one as well.

Indeed, we are to do justly, love mercy and to walk humbly with our Father in heaven. 

But how do we do these things?

Walking justly is having a sense of right and wrong. God Himself is a just God.

That is why he sends those to hell if they do not accept his free gift of salvation, 

So, we must start there. The acceptance of His gift.

Next, we are to love mercy. We must show our love to others. Not just for those that are easy to love. But what about those that are not easy to love?

Do we work in a food pantry for the needy and then behind their backs resent them because they are getting free food when for years, we have worked hard for what we have gotten or achieved?

Granted, there are many that do take advantage of the system. But we are not to question why? Unless we can offer then help or the hope in God. He simply tells us to feed them.. Read what Romans 12:20 says:

To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink...

Lastly in this passage, we are to walk humbly with our God. But what does that mean?

It means to be in a close relationship with Him. To understand His greatness and our own frailties To be humble and not prideful.

To do these things, it sometimes takes practice. But they are what God requires of each of us. And when the day comes that we actually get to stand before Him, He will reward us for what we have done on earth. Mathew 5:12

Thank you for stopping by. I hope this scripture encourages you to practice your faith. We are not to just read the Bible or listen to a sermon. We are to put into practice those things God is teaching us.

I pray this has been helpful for you today.

Until next time:

May God richly bless you

according to His riches in glory!
