Principles and Applications

I. A Time of Judgment (Micah 1:1-7)

  • Principle: God’s Judgment for Sin is Sure and Complete.
  • Application: As you examine your life, where do you need to confess your sins to avoid the discipline of the Lord?
  • Scripture Reference

13 The conclusion, when all has been heard, is: fear God and keep His commandments, because this applies to every person.
14 For God will bring every act to judgment, everything which is hidden, whether it is good or evil.
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 (NASB)

II. A Time of Mourning (Micah 1:8-16)

  • Principle: God’s People Should Mourn for those People that are far from Him.
  • Application: What’s your attitude towards those who are currently on track for eternal judgment because they don’t know Christ?
  • Scripture Reference

20 Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
21 He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
2 Corinthians 5:20-21 (NASB)
