Verses 6-7 reveal to us the universal problem. Verse 8 is God's answer to the problem. Verses 9-16 is the consequence of an unresolved problem.
Sorry we where having some technical difficulties so the first 8-10 minutes are missing ,My apologies.
The LORD systematically and consistently sanctifies each believer and commands that we be -conformed to the image of Christ.-It is a message that the enemy isn't just -out there,-but that he is -in here- In a word - Glorification.
Here is these verses, we shall see the Deliverance of Judah by the hand of her expectation One, her Messiah. And the main point here in ch.5 of Micah is that -He will deliver us - -5-6- Jesus Christ, the Promised Seed, the Messiah -will arise and shepherd His flock- -5-6- and in Him is found Abundant Provision.
The message of Micah 5 is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Here we encounter one of the Greatest texts in all the Scripture. A King is coming.
Micah is here liking the process of natural birth to Israel's spiritual re-birth. A discourse on the Doctrine of Regeneration.
Sermon on the Mount - Jesus is preaching the opposite of what the religious leaders of the time were teaching. He is elevating the Word of God.- When a church undermines the Word of God, they become something that is not a church at all.

There is a word being spoken that defines to the nation of Judah, that the days of glory which she longs for, those days are only to be found in the days of her Messiah. Only then will -the mountain of the house of the LORD be established as the chief of the mountains- Micah 4-1
Micah 3-9-12 is a good introduction- a historical background or preface to not only what we find in immediately following in chapter 4, but also for the remainder of Micah. There is here at this transition a very real ultimatum given and very real promise extended.
To be a real peacemaker we must understand that God's peace brings righteousness to bear on the situation, it does not compromise. And remember that Jesus Christ will establish an eternal peace, but that will be a victory won through war.
The Church of Jesus Christ is an eternal building of God, therefore she needs to be built with eternal materials.
Micah stands as a bulwark against the swelling tide of sin and not only proclaims truth to his fellow countrymen, but declares to them the authority by which he speaks. Micah is exposing the sin of his people, contrasting it with the righteousness of God- the Holy Standard and Nature of God's Person- and declaring to the nation her just judgement .
The eternal, divine Word declares to us the mind of God. He who is in the bosom of the Father has dwelt among us.
Micah, begins his second of three sections, returns to his theme of impending judgement, and declares to his audience- and to us today, of the inseparability of politics and religion. Micah is clearly portraying to us, that there is a necessary connection and correlation between Orthopraxy and Orthodoxy. There must be an application to your doctrine- and actions flow out of beliefs.
The battle for our soul is won or lost by what we are listening to, what we are giving ourselves to. Our fruitfulness is hugely impacted by our diet. And our outcome is entirely dependent on wether Christ knows us.
One of the blessings to be found... is the truth that there are times , even in the very midst of judgement and sorrow, that a message of grace and mercy breaks through the dark clouds of judgement and the gloom. While the storm isn't over, or even while it rages, there is a promise of peace, a promise of protection, a promise of providence. There is hope.
The final message of The Biblical Family series. In this message we learn about worship in the family.
Micah describes an unconventional war being conducted in the pulpits, homes, and streets of the nation. Micah speaks of the destruction which sin and war bring. In this section, Micah turns his gaze and his message towards the false prophets.

This is a national funeral. This is what coming judgement upon a nation-people looks like- the righteous will weep, while the wicked party. Sin-lawlessness storms the capital.
