Come let us go to the mountain of the
Lord to the house of the God of Jacob that He may teach us His ways
and that we may walk in His paths. Micah 4: 2
Here is an invitation by the prophet to go up, to walk to the
heights of God's presence. Mountain of the Lord is the place where
you are blessed with the view of the world as God sees it. Mountain
of the Lord is the place from where all that is below will look
beautiful regardless of their small imperfections. When we are with
God, all imperfections of the world would seem like little specs of
dust that can be easily blown away or removed with a touch of the
mighty God.
So the prophet says, let us go to the mountain of God.
For God dwells in places, hearts, people and situations that are
high enough not to be caught by the imperfections of this world. God
dwells in the mountains of our hearts where there is
purity, honesty and non-judgmental attitude so that God
can actually teach His path to such a person. And
God tells us such hearts are high enough for God to dwell in them
and thus God will be dwelling among us every day.
Let us go to the mountain of the Lord and let us make our
hearts high places for God to dwell so that God can teach us His
paths.
