Isaiah 22:1-23:18; 2 Kings 18:7b-8; Micah 1:8-3:12

Micah announces God's judgment on the leaders and the citizens of both Israel and Judah. Then he turns his attention to the prophets employed in both nations: If a liar and deceiver comes and says, "I will prophesy for you plenty of wine and beer," he would be just the prophet for this people! (Micah 2:11) Indulgence, intoxication, trickery, and prevarication--the people and the "prophets" suited to them are phonies.

I want to go in the opposite direction. I want to be authentic and honest.
