Excerpt from "Micah: Who Is Like Yah?"
I just finished a booklet about Micah & posted the link on the right. Below is an excerpt.

The
name Micah means, “Who is like Yah?”
Micah’s prophecy shows how God’s grace abounds in Christ and utterly swallows
up sin, death, and Satan. Yah is short
for Yahweh, the name of God meaning, “I Am” (Exodus 3:14). Jesus is the living image and fulfillment of
this name of God, in all its significance—“I am [the Messiah],” “I am the bread
of life,” “I am the light of the world,” “I am the good shepherd,” “I am the
resurrection and the life,” “I am the way, and the truth, and the life,” “I am
the true vine,” “I am a king,” “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the
last, the beginning and the end.” In these and similar statements, Jesus shows
that He brings this name of God to completion in endless ways. In view of God’s great salvation through
Christ, we can only answer that there is no one like Yah—no one as majestic in
holiness, as awesome in glory, or working such wonders as the death and
resurrection of Jesus (Ex. 15:11).
