God reveals Himself in Micah as holy, just, and sovereign, calling His people to repentance from idolatry.
In the book of Micah, God is portrayed as distinctly different from man, holy, and sovereign over all creation. The prophet's messages emphasize God's desire for His people to turn away from idolatry and to recognize their sinfulness. God's warnings are steeped in compassion, highlighting His grace while simultaneously calling out the injustices and failures of His people. Micah's rhetorical question, 'Who is like God?' underscores the unique holiness and incomparable nature of the Lord, urging Israel to turn back to Him, acknowledging their sins and embracing His mercy as their only hope.
