Micah 5&6

Lord Jesus, Micah writes that you will come out of Bethlehem. That you will come out from there to serve God, our father. That you are the ruler, and that your advent, and mission and victory, have been known from old and from everlasting.

You will stand and you will feed your flock. In your name and in the strength of God, our father, your flock will abide. You, Lord Jesus, will be great to the ends of the earth and in you will be real, divine peace.

By your grace and sacrifice, Lord Jesus, you brought me up out of sin and reconciled me back to the father. You redeemed me from bondage. You sent prophets and apostles and witnesses before me. You enlightened the eyes of my understanding so that I could know your righteousness.

You have shown me, Lord Jesus, what is good; what you require of me. By your grace and indwelling spirit, today, I will do justly; I will love mercy; I will walk humbly before you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
