Testify against Me!',

Back to The Pastor's Evening Visit


"Testify against Me!" Micah 6:3

By our conduct—we often reflect badly upon the Lord; treating Him with neglect and disrespect, preferring creatures or worldly things before Him! He speaks of this conduct—as if it went to His heart! He says to us, "O My people, what have I done to you?And how have I wearied you? Testify against Me!"

Have you neglected the prayer closet? 
Have you slighted the means of grace? 
Have you laid your Bible aside and left it unopened? 
Have you withdrawn your thoughts and your affections from God—and given them to the world? 

Why is this? 

What reason have you for doing so? 

The Lord asks you WHY? Testify against Me!

He says, "Have you any charges against Me? Bring them forward! Have I treated you unkindly? Have I been false to My Word? Have I acted in any way unfitting My character? Tell Me—why do you treat Me with neglect? Why do you prefer My enemy, the world, to Me? Tell out your reasons, let Me know all; anything but this shyness, this distance, this indifference!"

O believer! Are you not guilty? Have you not wounded your God? Have you not grieved His Holy Spirit? Return to your injured Lord. Go, fall at His feet, confess your sins, beg His pardon, be reconciled, and em-bosomed in His love!
