In Micah 1, God’s just and holy character stands front and center. Both Israel and Judah had abandoned the Lord, chasing after sin and idolatry instead of remaining faithful to the one true God. Because of this rebellion, Micah delivers a sobering warning: God’s judgment will fall on the land as the rightful consequence of their sin. Micah 1 reminds us of God's character: He is perfectly holy, and no sin escapes His righteous wrath.
