Micah 2:1-13: Coveting Leads to Theft Leads to Destruction

Sharper Iron from KFUO Radio

The LORD sees those whose covetous thoughts hatch into plots of theft, and He devises their destruction, from which they will not be able to escape. Many of Micah's hearers refuse to believe that the LORD who is among them could do such a thing to Israel, but Micah's proclamation of woe against Israel is true. The false preachers, as beloved as they may be, only hide the true disaster that will come. Yet the LORD promises mercy, for He will gather His remnant and reign over them as their true King. This text calls us to examine our hearts for greed, so that we would repent, trust in the LORD, and seek to be generous with our neighbor.  Rev. Levi Willms, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Sauk Rapids, MN, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Micah 2:1-13.  To learn more about Trinity Lutheran, visit trinitysr.org. “Majoring in the Minors” is a mini-series on Sharper Iron that goes through the books of Hosea, Joel, Jonah, Micah, and Nahum. Although the books of these prophets are shorter, the Word of God they preached was important in the years leading up to the coming of the Christ, and that Word remains important for the Church today. Just as we still need to listen to their call to repentance over our idolatry, so we still need to heed their call to trust in the Savior, Jesus.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

The Tenth Commandment | Exodus 20:17

“You must not covet your neighbor’s house. You must not covet your neighbor’s wife, male or female servant, ox or donkey, or anything else that belongs to your neighbor.” (Exodus 20:17 NLT) The tenth and final commandment stands apart. While the other commandments, to a large extent, deal with what we do outwardly, this one deals with what we do inwardly. While the other commandments deal primarily with actions, this one deals with a state of mind and heart. A Roman Catholic priest who heard the confessions of thousands of people said he listened to folks admit to sins of almost every kind, including adultery and even murder. But he could not recall even one person who confessed to the sin of coveting. Maybe that’s because no one knew what it was. Coveting is looking at something, admiring it, and essentially taking it. For instance, let’s say your friend has a car. You say, “I like that car.” That’s not coveting. You say, “I want a car like it.” Still not coveting. You say, “I’m going to buy a car just like it.” Still not coveting. You say, “I want your car.” That is a problem. You say, “I’m taking your car.” That’s coveting—and grand theft auto, in this case. It is taking something that belongs to another. Something that was never meant to be yours. You’ll notice that the commandment says, “You must not covet your neighbor’s wife.” It’s not wrong to want a wife or a husband, but it is wrong to want someone else’s wife or husband. Second Samuel 11 tells the story of King David and Bathsheba. David saw Bathsheba bathing, asked about her, and discovered that she was the wife of Uriah the Hittite, one of David’s loyal soldiers. David demanded that Bathsheba be brought to him. He coveted her—and thus began his downfall. He committed adultery with her. He arranged for her husband to be killed in battle. He tried to cover it up by lying. David set in motion a series of broken commandments when he coveted. He, like everyone else, discovered that keeping the Ten Commandments is practically impossible. And that’s the point of them. How many of the Ten Commandments have you broken? Have you misused God’s name? Have you failed to honor your father and mother? Have you stolen anything? Have you lied? Have you committed adultery? Have you coveted? If so, you experienced the need to repent and ask God for forgiveness. The Ten Commandments aren’t intended to frustrate us or make us miserable. They’re intended to show us our need for repentance and forgiveness. The Ten Commandments weren’t given to try to make us holy. They were given to show us that we can’t be holy through our own ability. We are all guilty before God. The good news is that when Christ died on the cross, He atoned for every broken commandment. He took our penalty and our punishment on Himself. He died in our place so that we can be forgiven. Reflection question: How would you explain the Ten Commandments to someone who doesn’t know much about them?

A submissive wife learns to be content with what she and her husband have built together. Resist the urge to constantly desire more, especially over things that change with every season. Coveting this year's trend in soft furnishings or longing for what others have only steals your peace.

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageBishop Robert Barron's compact 138-page book "An Introduction to Prayer" delivers profound spiritual wisdom that far exceeds its modest length. Exploring the concept of contrition—literally "crushing" from Latin—we're guided through an unflinching examination of conscience using the Ten Commandments as our framework.The journey begins with confronting our fundamental spiritual orientation: Who or what do we truly worship? Everyone has an ultimate concern, but when that concern is anything other than God—whether sex, money, power, status, or our ego—we experience spiritual fragmentation. The examination becomes increasingly challenging as we move through commandments addressing speech about God, concrete worship practices, family relationships, and how we handle violence in our lives.As we progress deeper, the questions become more uncomfortable. How does sexuality serve as gift rather than self-indulgence in our lives? Do we steal, even in small ways? What is the quality of our speech—how often do we tear others down? Do we covet what others have, feeding the competitive conflicts that Rene Girard identified as the source of so much human suffering? Just as Jesus cleared the temple in Jerusalem, we're invited to identify what needs clearing from the temple of our souls.Holy Week provides the perfect opportunity for this spiritual inventory and house cleaning. For Catholics, the increased availability of the Sacrament of Reconciliation during this sacred time offers a concrete way to express contrition and experience God's mercy. Whether through formal confession or personal prayer, this spiritual exercise prepares us to fully celebrate the resurrection with renewed hearts. Remember, Christ waits for us, rich in mercy, ready to transform our brokenness into Easter joy.Key Points from the Episode:• The prayer of contrition involves honestly confronting our sins and their impact• The first commandments challenge us to examine what we truly worship• Honoring family relationships serves as a foundation for all other relationships• Questions about violence extend beyond physical harm to our speech and impact on others• Sexual ethics should center on gift and authentic love, not self-indulgence• Our speech patterns often reveal our tendency to tear others down• Coveting leads to competitive conflicts that damage human relationships• Jesus clearing the temple serves as a metaphor for spiritual house cleaning• Regular examination of conscience reorients our souls toward GodThis Holy Week, take time for honest self-examination and, for Catholics, visit the sacrament of reconciliation. Our Lord is waiting for you and is rich in mercy.Other resources: Want to leave a review?

Luke 12:49-53 - Watching, Waiting, Working, and Warring

Pastor Mike Impact Ministries

Welcome to today's pastor's chat on Luke 12, where Jesus speaks to the heart ofwhat it means to follow Him in a broken world. As believers, we are called towait, watch, and work for His kingdom, but this calling comes with a challenge:it won't be easy. We are aliens in enemy territory, living as stewards of God'sgrace while engaged in a spiritual war. Jesus doesn't shy away from thisreality—He confronts it head-on, addressing the struggles that threaten toderail us and the battles we must face. First,Jesus warns against hypocrisy, covetousness, worry, and fear. These creep intoour lives when we pretend to be something we're not, when we chase the thingsof this world over the things of God, or when we let anxiety take root.Coveting, at its core, is idolatry—placing anything above our Creator. Theresult? Restless, insecure lives, always chasing the next thing but neverfinding satisfaction. Yet, there's hope. True fulfillment comes through anintimate relationship with Jesus Christ. He loved us, died for us, and roseagain, filling the void within us and making us new creations. Only He cantransform our hearts and give us lasting peace. InLuke 12, Jesus shifts to a story of stewardship. A master returns to find hisservants either faithfully waiting, watching, and working—or distracted andunfaithful. He concludes with a principle: “To whom much is given, from himmuch will be required” (Luke 12:48). The more God entrusts to us—be it time,talents, or opportunities—the more He expects us to use them for His glory.We're accountable for what we've been given, and that accountability shapes howwe live. Butstewardship isn't just about diligence; it's also about warfare. Jesus says, “Icame to send fire on the earth… I have a baptism to be baptized with… Do yousuppose that I came to give peace on earth? I tell you, not at all, but ratherdivision” (Luke 12:49-51). Fire represents judgment, and His baptism points toHis suffering on the cross—a death He endured in our place, pictured by Hisbaptism in the Jordan. He didn't need to repent, but He identified with us,taking our sin and rising victorious on the third day. That's the triumph wecelebrate at Easter. Yet,His coming also brings division. Families may split—father against son, motheragainst daughter—because faith in Jesus demands a choice: “If you're notwith Me, you're against Me.” The Gospel of Luke begins with “peace onearth” (Luke 2:14), and yes, Jesus offers a peace that calms our hearts andovercomes worry as we seek His kingdom first. But in this world, He warns, “Youwill have tribulation” (John 16:33). He was persecuted, and as Hisservants, we won't escape it either. We're at war—against the flesh, the devil,and the enemies we face as believers. Taking a stand for Christ may cost us,but there's a promise: if we suffer with Him, we will also reign with Him. So,where does this leave us? We're called to be faithful stewards, watching andworking for Jesus, even as we navigate a world that opposes Him. The peace Hegives isn't the absence of conflict but the presence of His strength within us.As aliens in this territory, we live differently, trusting that our battles aretemporary and our victory is sure. ClosingChallengeReflecton what God has entrusted to you—your resources, relationships, oropportunities to share His love. This week, choose one specific way to stewardthese faithfully, even if it means facing resistance. Stand firm, knowing Jesusis with you in the fight. PrayerLordJesus, thank You for the peace You bring to our hearts, even in a world oftribulation. Help us turn from hypocrisy, covetousness, and fear, and find oursatisfaction in You alone. Strengthen us to be faithful stewards, watching andworking for Your glory, no matter the cost. Give us courage for the battles weface and hope in Your promise of victory. In Your precious name, Amen. Godbless!

What’s one unrealistic dating expectation you’ve had? Today, Jay welcomes back one of the most insightful voices in modern dating and relationships, Stephan Speaks. If you’ve been searching for clarity in love, struggling with self-worth in dating, or wondering why you keep attracting the wrong partners, this conversation is a must-listen. Jay and Stephan kick off by breaking down one of the biggest struggles in today’s dating world—the negative perception of men and women. They explore how sensationalized online narratives and personal biases shape our beliefs about relationships, often distorting reality. Stephan explains how social media and exaggerated dating horror stories create unnecessary fear and distrust, making it harder for people to embrace love. If you’ve ever felt like you’re stuck in a cycle of failed relationships, Stephan reveals that understanding yourself first is the key to finding the right partner. He emphasizes three critical factors: first, accepting the differences between men and women instead of resisting them; second, knowing yourself before entering a relationship, as many people struggle because they aren’t even clear on what they truly need; and third, prioritizing healing, because unresolved pain from past experiences will continue to affect every new connection. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Stop Letting Dating Myths Mislead You How to Attract the Right Partner by Knowing Yourself How to Heal Before Your Next Relationship How to Communicate With a Closed-Off Partner How to Break the Cycle of Failed Relationships If you’ve felt frustrated, discouraged, or like love just isn’t in the cards for you, remember this: the right relationship isn’t something you chase, it’s something you attract by becoming the best version of yourself.

What we have in front of us today is a painful story. We have an unloved woman yearning for the affections of her husband. We have a loved woman who has everything in her life except that which she most desires, a child. We have a passive husband, tossed around by every twist of emotion in the household. We have two other women seen only as objects and means to an end. The sad news is this is all done entirely to themselves. None of this was necessary. All of it was an attempt to control things that cannot be controlled. The glad news is that God is going to turn petty competition and profound longing into the nation of Israel that will one day bring the Messiah. Our two points today: Coveting kills joy through false promises, yet God blesses whether we see it or not.

Leftism Means Coveting Power

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 109 There are many ways we could conceive of Leftism, and one of the best is that it is a covetous relationship with power. It's easy to understand how toxic and bad that is, if not evil. Yet here we are at a crossroads in world history, and we're being led toward precisely that pit. There's a popular line out there now that goes something like this: "the Left wants power, and conservatives don't. That's why conservatives always lose." The implication is that conservatives should also desire (or covet) power. This line adopts the Left's relationship to power and fails to articulate the healthier relationship to power embraced by conservatives: that of faithful service to others, which conservatives often gladly shoulder. In this important episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay covers this line and a healthier way to move forward into the responsibility we have to shoulder. Join him for the discussion, then chew on it. New book!

Today is day 352 and we are studying The Tenth Commandment. 352. Why does God forbid coveting?

In this episode of the Salty Saints Podcast, Randy and I dive into the Tenth Commandment, focusing on the concept of coveting. We explore the biblical definition of coveting, as outlined in Exodus 20:17, which warns against desiring our neighbor's possessions, including their house, spouse, and belongings. We discuss the nuances of what it means to covet—whether it's a personal desire for someone else's specific item or a more general aspiration for something similar. I share insights from the Hebrew and Greek words related to coveting, highlighting how they connect to deeper themes of desire and lust. Throughout the conversation, we reflect on the implications of coveting, including how it can lead to destructive behaviors and a lack of contentment. We emphasize the importance of appreciating what we have while still striving for improvement in our lives. We also touch on biblical examples, such as the stories of Achan and Cain, to illustrate how coveting can manifest in harmful ways. Ultimately, we conclude that learning to be content with what we have is key to overcoming the desire for what belongs to others. Join us as we wrap up this series on the Ten Commandments, and stay tuned for our final episode where we'll tie everything together!
