What is Good

 

 

No, O people, the LORD has told you what is good,
    and this is what he requires of you:
to do what is right, to love mercy,
    and to walk humbly with your God.

 

—Micah 6:8 (NLT)

 

 

 

 

Heavenly Father,

Help me to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with You, today.

 

Thank You, for showing me Your character and Your will through Your Word—so that, out of my own personal experience with the goodness I see demonstrated in You, I am able to understand what is good.

 

Help me live out my life with an overflowing gratefulness for the gifts of Your unrelenting and unfailing love, Your ultimate sacrifice for my redemption, and the fullness of my salvation.

 

Let that heart of gratefulness govern my thoughts, words, and actions—so I might always respond by doing what is right and just in Your sight.

 

Help me to live my life in service to You and to others—in demonstration of the love and mercy that has been poured out on me.

 

And help me to walk with You—living for You and drawing my very essence from You—with a humble spirit that is void of pride.

 

Help me to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with You, today.

 

In the name of Jesus, Amen.

What is Right, What God Requires

 

 

 

No, O people, the LORD has told you what is good,
    and this is what he requires of you:
to do what is right, to love mercy,
    and to walk humbly with your God. 

—Micah 6:8 (NLT)

 

Gracious and Loving LORD,

 

Thank You for sending us Your Word—for through Your Word I learn what is good and what You require of me.

 

Help me to do what is right.  Reveal to me the Truth of Your Word and help me to fully believe it—knowing it flows from Your unfailing love for us all.  Help me obediently apply that Truth to all my thoughts, words, and actions, as I choose Your ways over my own.

 

Help me to love mercy.  Out of my overwhelming gratefulness to You for my own personal experience of Your continual mercy towards me—and an understanding that it is that same merciful love You offer to every one of us—let me be a loving reflection of Your mercy to everyone around me.

 

Help me to walk humbly with You.  Don't allow me to disobediently lag behind You, or arrogantly run ahead of You, but let me walk submissively with You, intent on doing Your will.

 

Thank You for sending us Your Word—for through Your Word I learn what is good and what You require of me.

 

In the name of Jesus, Amen.
