1. Micah’s Message Of Redemption Sunday, August 14, 2016Pastor Rod Enos

2. I.Judgment That Redeems

4. A.God is Present and Not Absent

5. Micah 1:3 (NIV) Look! The LORD is coming from his dwelling place; he comes down and treads on the heights of the earth.

6. I.Judgment That Redeems A.God is Present and Not Absent B.Redemptive Correction

7. Hebrews 12:7-11 (NIV) Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as his children. For what children are not disciplined by their father? 8 If you are not disciplined—and everyone undergoes discipline—then you are not legitimate, not true sons and daughters at all. 9 Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits and live!

8. Hebrews 12:7-11 (NIV) 10 They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in his holiness. 11 No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.

9. Proverbs 16:25 (NIV) There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death.

10. I.Judgment That Redeems A.God is Present and Not Absent B.Redemptive Correction C.God Waits For Us To Cry Out

11. Psalms 33:12 (NIV) Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people he chose for his inheritance.

12. II.God’s Redeeming Heart

13. Micah 6:8 (NIV) He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.

14. II.God’s Redeeming Heart A.What Does It Mean To Act Justly? B.What Does It Mean To Love Mercy? C.What Does It Mean to Walk Humbly With God?

15. Micah 7:9 (NIV) Because I have sinned against him, I will bear the LORD's wrath, until he pleads my case and upholds my cause. He will bring me out into the light; I will see his righteousness.

16. Micah 7:18 (NIV) Who is a God like you, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of his inheritance? You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy.

17. Something To Remember God’s judgments are a holy act of preservation, seeking to bring us into the abundant life He promises and to spare us from the ultimate judgment of eternal separation from Him.

18. Thank you for coming today! May you leave with a renewed sense of God’s love and presence in your life and renewed surrender to Him!
