Scripture – Micah 5:4-5a “And He shall stand and feed His flock in the strength of the Lord, in the majesty of the name of the Lord His God, and they shall abide for He shall be great to the ends of the earth. And this One shall be peace.”

Observation – This is a prophecy concerning the Lord Jesus Christ. He has made a stand and does feed His flock with the strength of God. His flock shall and does abide (John 15) with Him forever. He is known and is great to the ends of the earth. Multiplies millions throughout the earth know His name. Many have and do speak of bringing peace, but He is the only one who shall bring peace because He is Peace.

 Application – We can trust God’s word. It shall come to pass. As many words were fulfilled regarding Christ first coming and we can be just as sure at He shall fulfil every word of prophecy concerning His final coming. We can also be confident that He is our Shepherd and feed us with His strength and that we shall abide with Him forever. He saves to the uttermost (Hebrews 7:25) and He lives forever to make intercession for us.

 Prayer – Lord, thank You for being my always faithful, life giving, abiding Shepherd. Only You bring the peace that passes understanding. I shall abide in You and Your words shall abide in Me. I am saved to the uttermost and shall be with the Lord forever. I am indeed very blessed. You are my peace!
