Micah 7:7 ” But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.”

Chapter 7 of the Old Testament prophet Micah is a lament where Micah bemoans the fact that no one righteous can be found…resulting in social & national confusion…that is both the result and punishment of sin and rebellion against God. Jesus, in teaching His disciples about trusting in God alone in Matthew 10:35-37, quotes Micah 7:6…a particularly striking description of the breakdown and division of the family order as sin abounds. Bottom line is this – Jesus demands allegiance that takes priority over the natural ties of life, and therefore, we must place our hope & trust in God alone.
