"In the days to come the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established as the highest of the mountains, and shall be raised up above the hills. People shall stream to it, and the house of the God of Jacob, that he may teach us his ways and that we may walk in his paths." Micah 4:12 (NRSV)
This prophecy - that many shall recognize Zion as the house of the True God - is imminent.
When the fathers recognize God's sovereignty the world will be transformed.
Their hearts will be opened.
They will let go of their fear.
And there will be an end to war and oppression.
"they shall beat their swords into ploughshares and their spears into pruning hooks, nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore." Micah 4:3 (NRSV)
