With what shall I come before the LORD, and bow myself before the High God? Shall I come before Him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old? Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, ten thousand rivers of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? He has shown you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God? Micah 6-8I recently ran accross this passage and it reminded of a question posed by many people today: "How do I know the will of God in my service before Him?". Christian's today are so rooted in their lifestyles consisting of materialism, relationships, issues, and so on that their knowledge of God's will in their life is down to a minimum. This passage has a clear answer to all who ask the above question: "what does the LORD require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?". Nothing more - nothing less. Note: nothing less. The word of God has an answer to all of our questions.
"Therefore do my thoughts cause me to answer, and for this I make haste." - Zophar the Naamathite (Job 20:2)
