Imagine a peace that comes from ancient days. Remaining through every age, withstanding all of time. Can you grasp the strength of such peace? That’s Jesus. He is our peace. Birthed in a town too small to be considered, he came. Through a woman willing to surrender, he came. Stronger than any hostility we will ever encounter, he came. From ancient days our peace came to reign and rule forever.
This is Micah’s prophecy of Jesus’ birth.
But, you Bethlehem who are too little to be among the clans of Judah, from you shall come forth for me one who is to be ruler in Israel, whose coming forth is from old, from ancient days…And he shall stand and shepherd his flock in the strength of the Lord, in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God. And they shall dwell secure for he shall be great to the ends of the earth and he shall be their peace. Micah 5:2-5
