The Prophecy of Micah: A Promise for the Wounded

We see in Scripture the Lord’s tendency to use those who walk with a limp, both figuratively and literally, in order to accomplish his good purposes. That means, if we hope to be useful and effective in his service, we must first be wounded and humbled in his presence. This was a lesson that the people of Jerusalem in Micah’s day sorely needed to learn as their present circumstances looked bleak and their future even darker.
