The Lord Almighty has Spoken

Micah 1-4; Hebrews 6

“’Every man will sit under his own vine and under his own fig tree, and no one will make them afraid, for I the Lord Almighty has spoken. All the nations may walk in the name of their gods; we will walk in the name of the Lord our God forever and ever.’”

Micah 4:4, 5

In times of transition, change, and conflict, what matters is the Word God has spoken over our lives. Listening to the voices of fear and conflict trouble our spirit; listening to the Word of the Lord brings peace when we submit to the Lord of the Word. Micah’s call is to both listen to the Word of the Lord and walk in his paths. Walking in the name of the Lord means our identity and perspective on life are shaped by our relationship with God. We participate in God’s mission for the reconciliation of all things, in Christ, as we experience inner peace with God.

Are we living in peace under our own fig tree and vine, or still making a name for ourselves in this world?

What has the Lord spoken over our lives and are we responding to that Word in faith?

“Lord Jesus, your Word over me is life and truth, for your glory.”
