Micah: 4:9-13: – “God Restores Us THROUGH Our Pain”
Wednesday, December 3rd, 2025
[9] Now why do you cry aloud? Is there no king in you? Has your counselor perished, that pain seized you like a woman in labor?
[10] Writhe and groan, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in labor, for now you shall go out from the city and dwell in the open country; you shall go to Babylon. There you shall be rescued; there the Lord will redeem you from the hand of your enemies.
[11] Now many nations are assembled against you, saying, “Let her be defiled, and let our eyes gaze upon Zion.”
[12] But they do not know the thoughts of the Lord; they do not understand His plan, that He has gathered them as sheaves to the threshing floor.
[13] Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion, for I will make your horn iron, and I will make your hoofs bronze; you shall beat in pieces many peoples; and shall devote their gain to the Lord, their wealth to the Lord of the whole earth.
