World English Bible
But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, being small among the clans of Judah, out of you one will come out to me who is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings out are from of old, from ancient times.
Micah 5:2
Micah 5:2
Reflection
Bethlehem was too small to be counted among the great towns, and that is exactly where God chose to begin. He loves to work through what the world overlooks.
Pray with this verse
Lord, thank you for this word. Write it on my heart today and help me to live it. Amen.
