Scripture:<\/strong>
Micah 4:1-5<\/strong>
4 But in the days to come,
the mountain of the Lord\u2019s house
will be the highest of the mountains;
it will be lifted above the hills;
peoples will stream to it.
2 Many nations will go and say:
\u201cCome, let\u2019s go up to the mountain of the Lord,
to the house of Jacob\u2019s God,
so that he may teach us his ways
and we may walk in God\u2019s paths!\u201d
Instruction will come from Zion
and the Lord\u2019s word from Jerusalem.
3 God will judge between the nations
and settle disputes of mighty nations,
which are far away.
They will beat their swords into iron plows
and their spears into pruning tools.
Nation will not take up sword against nation;
they will no longer learn how to make war.
4 All will sit underneath their own grapevines,
under their own fig trees.
There will be no one to terrify them;
for the mouth of the Lord of heavenly forces has spoken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5 Each of the peoples walks in the name of their own god;
but as for us, we will walk in the name of the Lord our God
forever and always.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12<\/strong>
9 Two are better than one because they have a good return for their hard work. 10 If either should fall, one can pick up the other. But how miserable are those who fall and don\u2019t have a companion to help them up! 11 Also, if two lie down together, they can stay warm. But how can anyone stay warm alone? 12 Also, one can be overpowered, but two together can put up resistance. A three-ply cord doesn\u2019t easily snap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
