5 Minutes a day / 5 Days a week
with God
Micah 6:3-4
3 "O My people, what have I done to you?
And how have I wearied you?
Testify against Me.
4 For I brought you up from the land of Egypt,
I redeemed you from the house of bondage;
And I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
Complain, complain, complain, don't you just hate it when all people do is complain all the time?
Even here, today, we are complaining about people who complain.
But it's irritating to hear all the time, I wonder if it is the same way with God?
Maybe so, look at this first verse again:
O My people, what have I done to you?
And how have I wearied you?
Testify against Me.
Its almost like God is asking why we complain all the time, and He even gives us a reason why we shouldn't be complaining in the next verse.
For I brought you up from the land of Egypt,
I redeemed you from the house of bondage;
And I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
God has saved us from the clutches of hell, and what do we do in return? Complain!
"Oh God, I need more of this or that."
"God, why can't I _______?"
"God, why did you allow this to happen?"
"God, where were you when I needed you?"
"God, he/she treats me so bad, why did You allow me to marry him/her?"
I think it's time for us all to stop complaining and start praising God for what He has done for us.
This weekend, pull out some of those praise CD's you haven't listened to in a long time, or go buy some, and spend the weekend praising God with no complaining at all.
Micah 6:8 He has shown you, O man, what is good;
And what does the LORD require of you
But to do justly,
To love mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God?
So walk humbly with your God with no complaining, just thankfulness!
