The Call of the Shepherd King - Micah

It is this Shepherd-King that will inform the way we look at this book together—I think of the book of Micah as The Call of the Shepherd King. Throughout his prophecies, we will encounter a figure who is both king and shepherd, who will lead God's remnant flock. Micah will describe him as "the breaker" who demolishes obstacles so his people can get to his desired destination (2:13). He is a ruler who will come from the ancient of days who will "stand and shepherd his flock in the strength of the Lord" (4:8, 5:2, 4). And he will shepherd his people with his staff since they are the flock of his inheritance (7:14). Taken together, Micah envisioned a divine Shepherd; he will also be King; he will call his people to repentance, justice, and revival while extending rich mercy, grace, and forgiveness toward them. Micah envisioned Jesus—the true Shepherd King!
