Therefore because of you [unfaithful leaders] Zion shall be ploughed as a field; Jerusalem shall become a heap of ruins, and the mountain of the house a wooded height.

Then they will cry to the LORD, but he will not answer them; he will hide his face from them at that time, because they have made their deeds evil. Micah 3:4 Here we come to another principle that runs throughout the Bible. “The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working” (Jas. 5:16). Effective praying depends on right living. “L…

Today, we tackle a fundamental question: Why is unbelief the dominant response to the gospel of Jesus Christ? We'll explore why many people are on the broad road to destruction and so few on the narrow path that leads to life, as Jesus described. We'll uncover what lies behind unbelief and discover what can lead to faith, focusing on three hurdles:…

“Hear, you heads of Jacob and rulers of the house of Israel! Is it not for you to know justice?—you who hate the good and love the evil, who tear the skin from off my people and their flesh from off their bones. who eat the flesh of my people. and lay their skin from off them. and break their bones in pieces and chop them up like meat in a pot, lik…

Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to give an account. Hebrews 13:17 You are accountable for all that you have been given, and the more you have been given, the more accountable you are. That’s why the Bible urges us to pray for our leaders. Children, pray for your parents, becau…

“Well done, good servant! Because you have been faithful in a very little, you shall have authority over ten cities.” Luke 19:17 Jesus told a story about three servants who were trusted with investing money.

Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required… Luke 12:48 It is worth taking a moment to think about what God has entrusted to you. Here are some areas to reflect on. Relationships.

Hear, you heads of Jacob and rulers of the house of Israel! Micah 3:1 The Bible has a great deal to say about leadership. Some positions of leadership are elected. That is, people make a choice through a process of voting, by which they trust the task of leadership to people who are willing to take that responsibility. This is what happens in a dem…

“Do not preach”—thus they preach— “one should not preach of such things; disgrace will not overtake us.” Micah 2:6 When Micah spoke the Word of God, there were strong voices in the community that did not want to hear it. The first marker of the false prophet is that he or she brings comfort to people who are still in their sins: “Micah, you talk ab…

Therefore, thus says the LORD… Micah 2:3 “I am devising disaster.” He is explaining the action that He is about to take against those who take advantage of the vulnerable: “against this family I am devising disaster” (2:3).

Woe to those who devise wickedness and work evil on their beds! Micah 2:1 These people are intentionally pursuing the wrong path.

For I would have you know, brothers, that the gospel that was preached by me is not man’s gospel. For I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ. Galatians 1:11-12 “Revelation” is the word that we use to describe how the invisible, incomprehensible God has made Himself known. You c…

I declared them to you from of old, before they came to pass I announced them to you, lest you should say, “My idol did them, my carved image and my metal image commanded them.” Isaiah 48:5 A large part of the world’s religion is precisely this: speculation about the nature of God. Men (and women) have thought, talked, meditated, and written about …

Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good! Psalm 34:8 How can we come to know the sovereign God of the Bible? We can’t see Him, hear Him, taste Him, touch Him, or smell Him. God is invisible. More than that, He is incomprehensible. This really is about the most fundamental question a human being can ever ask: How can I know God? How could we, a small…

Make yourselves bald and cut off your hair, for the children of your delight; make yourselves as bald as the eagle, for they shall go from you into exile. Micah 1:16 Shaving the head was an act of mourning before the Lord. When one sees a disaster happening in the land that he loves, that person will mourn for himself and for his loved ones. Disast…

The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever. Deuteronomy 29:29 In America, where I have been a pastor for many years now, some people are confident that they know why God sends disasters. Some would say it is because of abortion. Some would say it is because of America’s po…

Today, Pastor Colin delves into one of life's profound truths: "sorrow is often God's back door to joy". Through a heartfelt message, he challenges the belief that joy is unattainable after experiencing great sorrow. Drawing from the book of Isaiah, he addresses those who feel trapped in their grief and shows them the path to restoring joy through …

“Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?” In all this Job did not sin with his lips. Job 2:10 Job was the righteous man who suffered incredible loss in a terrorist attack and a natural disaster on the same day. We know Satan’s hand was behind what Job suffered, but the Bible does not allow us to think for a moment that Satan …

If you’ve faced challenges, be they personal crises, relationship heartaches, or societal disruptions, this message shows how joy rooted in Christ transcends your circumstances. Listen in as Colin explain…

Disaster has come down from the LORD. Micah 1:12 We must affirm that God is in control not only of good things but also bad. This isn't easy. In fact, it is so difficult that some Christians have felt that it would be better to keep God at a distance from disasters altogether. Back in the eighteenth century there was a movement called deism. Deists…

Will you spend the rest of your life blaming others and end up under the wrath of God, or will you embrace what God offers you in Jesus Christ? Today we'll be delving into Deuteronomy 1 to explore this crucial decision. We all know people who blame others for their problems, and sometimes we do it ourselves. But as Colin mentions, we can move forwa…

For this I will lament and wail... Micah 1:8 Notice Micah’s response to his own message! Here is a man with the Word of God, who also shares the heart of God. Micah says that the wound in the Northern Kingdom is “incurable” (1:9), and that Samaria’s resistance to God has essentially reached the point of no return. Micah cannot change the course of …

In this episode, Pastor Colin delves into Deuteronomy Chapter One, highlighting six impulses that naturally occur within us all. These include rebellion against God, treating God's grace with contempt, blaming others, resisting truth, refusing to believe, and ultimately, being under God's wrath.

For behold, the LORD is coming out of his place, and will come down and tread upon the high places of the earth. Micah 1:3 Micah begins with a terrifying scene: God rises up from His dwelling place and comes down to the earth. And He is coming to make His case against the peoples of the earth (1:2). We are given a description of the terror of what …

The word of the LORD that came to Micah of Moresheth in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah… Micah 1:1 Who is Micah? What education does he have? What does he understand about the complexity of city life, or business, or international politics? What does he know about the psychological roots of dysfunction in the family? What doe…

The word of the LORD that came to Micah of Moresheth in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah… Micah 1:1 In Old Testament times, Micah was a common name, rather like Smith today. We are told that Micah was from Moresheth, a tiny little farming village about 20 miles from Jerusalem. It was about as obscure a town as you could imagin…

Today we're continuing our series with a message entitled "A New Beginning".

God's people faced immense hardship and displacement, but Ezra chapter 1 reveals a …

He trusted in the LORD, the God of Israel, so that there was none like him among all the kings of Judah after him, nor among those who were before him. 2 King 18:5 Some people have been blessed with a wonderful upbringing. Your father loved you, spent time with you, and was a role model for you. But others have had a very different experience. Perh…

In today's episode, we explore the ebb and flow of spiritual life through the lens of the book of Ezra. Pastor Colin draws a parallel between the tides of the ocean and the spiritual highs and lows that Christians often experience. Just as the tide goes in and out, there are seasons of spiritual vibrancy and times of decline. However, the message o…
