Micah

Luke 3:1-6
In the fifteenth year of the reign of Emperor Tiberius, when Pontius Pilate
was governor of Judea, and Herod was ruler of Galilee, and his brother
Philip ruler of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias ruler of
Abilene, ²  during the high-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of
God came to John son of Zechariah in the wilderness. ³  He went into all the
region around the Jordan, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the
forgiveness of sins,  ⁴  as it is written in the book of the words of the prophet
Isaiah, ‘The voice of one crying out in the wilderness:
“Prepare the way of the Lord,
    make his paths straight.
⁵  Every valley shall be filled,
    and every mountain and hill shall be made low,
and the crooked shall be made straight,
    and the rough ways made smooth;
⁶  and all flesh shall see the salvation of God.”’

In the final sermon in our series, "Beyond the Walls", we listen to the words of the prophet, Micah. He reminds us of what the Lord Himself requires of us: "to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly..." As we prepare for next weekend's Worship Without Walls, let's remember to live out these words in our service to others. We'll see you Sunday!
