"With what shall I come to the Lord and bow myself before the King on high?  Shall I come to Him with burnt offerings, with yearling calves?  Does the Lord take delight in thousands of rams, in ten thousand rivers of oil?  Shall I present my firstborn for all of my rebellious acts, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?  He has told you, oh man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?"

These verses are packed full of prophecy about the manner and means of Christ.  Sacrifice or obedience.  Offerings unto God.  The firstborn of the flesh and the fruit of the spirit...

Micah has a message that, again, is hard for the Hebrews to hear:  God has already communicated His will for your life to you.

He has told you...

It's true.  God has communicated this same message to His people before.  To Saul and Samuel with king Agog.  In the ten commandments. 

In fact, when God says in the gospels, "Love the Lord your God... and love your neighbor..." He is recommunicating the same theory. 

God wants us to love; to be fans of justice, mercy, kindness, humility.

He who is like Jehovah loves.
