Chapter 5 speaks of [[Bethlehem]] , the birthplace of [[Jesus]]. It was this prophecy in [[Micah]] that led the wise men to [[Jesus]]. Of course, the [[Jews]] rejected their Prince of Peace, so there has been no [[peace]] in the world and will not be until Christ returns to the earth to establish His kingdom.
In chapters 6 and 7 the message is, "Trust in the [[Lord]] today." The scene given is that of a courtroom, and [[God]] has a complaint against the people. He reminds them of how He brought them out of [[Egypt]]; how He led them in the wilderness; and how He protected them from their enemies. Yet they still rejected Him. The people answer that they have sinned and they seek a way of forgiveness for their sins. [[God]] tells them to repent and obey Him, because [[judgment]] is on the way.

In chapter 7:1-10 [[Micah]] speaks again. He laments the fact that the nation is so wicked he cannot find an honest man. Bribery, injustice, dishonesty, and greed rule the land. Verses 7-10 show us the [[faith]] that [[Micah]] had in [[God]]. Then, in verses 11-17, [[God]] makes a promise to His people that He will restore them; that in the future the wicked cities will be restored and cleansed; and that the nation will be established in glory. However, the [[Jews]] must first go through a time of tribulation. They have been suffering now for centuries, but there will be a special time of trial after Christ takes the Church to [[heaven]]. This period is known as the Time of [[Jacob]]'s trouble.

Verses 18-20 give us a wonderful confession of [[faith]], the whole purpose of [[Micah]] 's message. He wants to bring the people to [[faith]] in the [[Lord]]. He wants them to know that [[God]] is the only one who can forgive their sins. He alone shows mercy and [[love]] to sinners.
