Daily Bible Reading – October 2021: God’s Word of Justiceનમૂનો

October 26

Introduction

Micah denounces those leaders who ignore God’s concern for justice, and he speaks out against those prophets who deceive the people.

Today’s Scripture Reading 

Micah 3:1-12

Today’s Key Verse: Micah 3:8a

But as for me, the LORD fills me with his spirit and power, and gives me a sense of justice.

Reflect

Prophets were to remind people of how God wanted them to live, and they could receive goods or money in return for doing their religious duties. Micah denounces those prophets who take payments but are not willing to speak out against injustice or encourage the leaders to do what is right (verses 5-7). What warning does Micah deliver to those prophets who mislead the people? What false claim do these prophets make (verse 11)? How has God empowered Micah (verse 8)? What sets him apart as a true prophet? Who are the voices for justice today?

Pray

Lord God, You hear the cries of those who are victims of injustice. Fill me with Your Spirit and power, and give me the courage to speak out against injustice. In the Name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.

Prayer Concern

Those who have been falsely accused and awaiting trial
