2025-09-28 Final Verdict and Sentencing

2025-09-28 Final Verdict and Sentencing
by Pastor Chris Berg

Scripture Reference: Micah 6:9-16

9  Listen! The Lord is calling to the city—
    and to fear your name is wisdom—
    “Heed the rod and the One who appointed it.
10 Am I still to forget your ill-gotten treasures, you wicked house,
    and the short ephah, which is accursed?
11 Shall I acquit someone with dishonest scales,
    with a bag of false weights?
12 Your rich people are violent;
    your inhabitants are liars
    and their tongues speak deceitfully.
13 Therefore, I have begun to destroy you,
    to ruin you because of your sins.
14 You will eat but not be satisfied;
    your stomach will still be empty.
You will store up but save nothing,
    because what you save I will give to the sword.
15 You will plant but not harvest;
    you will press olives but not use the oil,
    you will crush grapes but not drink the wine.
16 You have observed the statutes of Omri
    and all the practices of Ahab’s house;
    you have followed their traditions.
Therefore I will give you over to ruin
    and your people to derision;
    you will bear the scorn of the nations.”

2025-09-21 The Lord's Requirement

2025-09-21 The Lord's Requirement
by Pastor Chris Berg

Scripture Reference: Micah 6:1-8

Hear what the Lord says:
1  Arise, plead your case before the mountains,
    and let the hills hear your voice.
2  Hear, you mountains, the indictment of the Lord,
    and you enduring foundations of the earth,
    for the Lord has an indictment against his people,
    and he will contend with Israel.
3  “O my people, what have I done to you?
    How have I wearied you? Answer me!
4  For I brought you up from the land of Egypt
    and redeemed you from the house of slavery,
    and I sent before you Moses,
    Aaron, and Miriam.
5  O my people, remember what Balak king of Moab devised,
    and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him,
    and what happened from Shittim to Gilgal,
    that you may know the righteous acts of the Lord.”
6  “With what shall I come before the Lord,
    and bow myself before God on high?
    Shall I come before him with burnt offerings,
    with calves a year old?
7  Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams,
    with ten thousands of rivers of oil?
    Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression,
    the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?”
8  He has told you, O man, what is good;
    and what does the Lord require of you
    but to do justice, and to love kindness,
    and to walk humbly with your God?

2025-09-14 In That Day

2025-09-14 In That Day
by Pastor Chris Berg

Scripture Reference: Micah 5:7-15

7 Then the remnant of Jacob
Will be among many peoples
Like dew from the Lord,
Like showers on vegetation
Which do not wait for man
Or delay for the sons of men.
8 The remnant of Jacob
Will be among the nations,
Among many peoples
Like a lion among the beasts of the forest,
Like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
Which, if he passes through,
Tramples down and tears,
And there is none to rescue.
9 Your hand will be lifted up against your adversaries,
And all your enemies will be cut off.

10 “It will be in that day,” declares the Lord,
“That I will cut off your horses from among you
And destroy your chariots.
11 “I will also cut off the cities of your land
And tear down all your fortifications.
12 “I will cut off sorceries from your hand,
And you will have fortune-tellers no more.
13 “I will cut off your carved images
And your sacred pillars from among you,
So that you will no longer bow down
To the work of your hands.
14 “I will root out your Asherim from among you
And destroy your cities.
15 “And I will execute vengeance in anger and wrath
On the nations which have not obeyed.”

2025-09-07 Who Is The King of Glory?
by Pastor Chris Berg

Scripture Reference: Micah 5:1-6

5 Now muster your troops, O daughter of troops;
    siege is laid against us;
with a rod they strike the judge of Israel
    on the cheek.
2 But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah,
    who are too little to be among the clans of Judah,
from you shall come forth for me
    one who is to be ruler in Israel,
whose coming forth is from of old,
    from ancient days.
3 Therefore he shall give them up until the time
    when she who is in labor has given birth;
then the rest of his brothers shall return
    to the people of Israel.
4 And he shall stand and shepherd his flock in the strength of the Lord,
    in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God.
And they shall dwell secure, for now he shall be great
    to the ends of the earth.
5 And he shall be their peace.

When the Assyrian comes into our land
    and treads in our palaces,
then we will raise against him seven shepherds
    and eight princes of men;
6 they shall shepherd the land of Assyria with the sword,
    and the land of Nimrod at its entrances;
and he shall deliver us from the Assyrian
    when he comes into our land
    and treads within our border.

2025-08-31 Who is the King of Glory?
by Pastor Chris Berg

Scripture: Micah 5:1-6

1 Marshal your troops now, city of troops, for a siege is laid against us.
They will strike Israel’s ruler on the cheek with a rod.

2 “But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are small among the clans of Judah,
out of you will come for me one who will be ruler over Israel,
whose origins are from of old, from ancient times.”

3 Therefore Israel will be abandoned until the time when she who is in labor bears a son,
and the rest of his brothers return to join the Israelites.

4 He will stand and shepherd his flock in the strength of the Lord,
    in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God.
And they will live securely, for then his greatness will reach to the ends of the earth.

5 And he will be our peace when the Assyrians invade our land
    and march through our fortresses. We will raise against them seven shepherds,
    even eight commanders, 

6 who will rule the land of Assyria with the sword,
    the land of Nimrod with drawn sword. He will deliver us from the Assyrians
    when they invade our land and march across our borders.
