    Micah 7:7

    King James Version

    7Therefore I will look unto theLord; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.

    SALVA'TION, n.L. salvo, to save.

    1. The act of saving; preservation from destruction, danger or great calamity.

    2. Appropriately in theology, the redemption of man from the bondage of sin and liability to eternal death, and the conferring on him everlasting happiness. This is the great salvation.

    Godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation. 2Cor. 7.

    3. Deliverance from enemies; victory. Ex. 14.

    4. Remission of sins, or saving graces. Luke 19.

    5. The author of man's salvation. Ps. 27.

    6. A term of praise or benediction. Rev. 19.

    I hear and see this scripture alot in my life and thank God to have the free gift of salvation not to boast in the Lord not to take for granted for the privilege for nothing to come against me to have what I'm saying or want and excel. So I have faith and believe in every current day that nothing will come against me and if so about it will be removed and erased.

    This reminds me of the song You are God-Vincent Tharpe & Kenosis ft. Michelle Prather. Yeah I like to feel like God and I have God in me .God word has to happen in my life exceeding and abundantly.

    B. Reiter:

    By saying no disaster shall come near my daughter or me, is to disagree with God's word.

    Look at the world around you, do you think all the people in Florida that lost everything, some even losing family members, do you not understand some were God fearing, born again Christians.

    God's wrath and indignation has been poured out on the earth, no one is immune, all will go through it, it's the righteous judgements of God.

    Psalms 78:49 He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them.

    Job 10:17 Thou renewest thy witness against me, and increaseth thine indignation upon me; charges and war are against me.

    Micah 7:9 I will bear the indignation of the Lord, because I have sinned against him, until he plead my cause, and execute judgement for me: he will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold his righteousness.

    Don't be deceived by mans teachings, Christ's children are going to go THROUGH THE FIRE.

    God bless you.

    JoElle,

    When we choose to forgive another person, it can take time to get the hurt and even anger out of our system when we recall what was said of done to us by another person. It helps to make a decision that when you think of them and /or the offense to acknowledge that they sinned against you but remind yourself and that you have forgiven them and pray for them. Also, determining that you will treat them with love, respect, and kindness instead of anger and resentment or payback is a good approach to interacting people who have sinned against you. If the person you are forgiving has a habit of being hurtful, it can be best to limit your interactions with that person or simply replace the relationship with someone who is godly and kind.

    God wants us to follow His Son, Jesus.

    He desires we walk in forgiveness.

    We can still love family and friends that are not saved_yet. You, praying on your knees might break the chains that hold them captive. That is true love.

    It is probably best if we separate ourselves from drunken parties and etc. Not dress like we used to. You know what I mean?

    It's best to witness our change in a smaller get togethers. If they ask you why your face seems to glow? You can tell them Jesus is the reason.

    You can invite them to meet you at your church, so you can sit together. Pray to the Lord to touch their hearts with the power of the Holy Spirit.

    One person praying for others can be the reason they come to know Jesus. Don't be weary in well doing. Faith goes where angels fear to tread. We have Jesus as our protection. Let your faith get huge, reading the Bible.

    We can grow from David the shepherd boy, to David, Giant Killer. His faith was in God__not his ability to throw rocks. God took the rock and it caved-in Goliaths nasal cavities and entered his brain. Instant death. I know that sounds gross.

    But David had challenged God, and God sent David to confront Goliath. David only knew that God would go with him. Maybe David was about your age. :)

    I was wondering did Israel spend more time in their sin than they did in their captivity? Or was just based on their acknowledging their sin .

    I know that when I sin against God only do I sin .of course that's is what David said in the Bible . So one day when I was praying

    I said I forgive so and so but I don't want to hang with them anymore or talk to them

    But God still talks to us as if we nv sinned against Him . I know man is not God and His thoughts are not huour thoughts .

    My question is cause I feel it depends on the person , the sin . Should I feel compassion . I was told forgive and feeling should come later.

    Hello Herbert. The whole book of Micah contains God's Message, primarily to Judah, but also concerning Israel. Was there something in particular that you were thinking of? I can give you a brief breakdown of the Book, as you go through it yourself.

    1. Micah 1:1. The following prophecy that God gave to Micah.

    2. Micah 1:2-2:13. God's Message of destruction for Samaria & Judah.

    3. Micah 3:1-5:15. Message of coming judgements on the rulers, false prophets, & on Jerusalem (3:1-12). Of deliverance (in the coming Kingdom): 4:1-5:1. This deliverance by the coming King, both in His first & second comings (5:2-15).

    4. Micah 6:1-7:10. God's two Messages of Denunciation & Israel's two replies to God.

    5. Micah 7:11-20. Blessings for Israel.

    Keeping those general headings in mind, you may find that re-reading the Book will help you to see the various messages that God had for Judah & Israel by his prophet Micah.

    Psalms 9:10, Psalms 18:2,30, Psalms 56:3, Psalms 71:5, Isaiah 12:2, our trust & hope should ultimately be in GOD

    * Psalms 118:8, * Jeremiah 9:4, * Micah 7:5,6, Luke 12:52, Psalms 27:10, Ephesian 6:2,3, Proverbs 23:22, people even most dear can betray, abandon, abuse etc. There was much abuse, betrayal, within King David's family & those he served. 1Samuel 21, 2Samuel 15, Saul his King, his children, wife, etc. Starting with his calling, 1Samuel 16:5-11,

    what is truth forgive
  • Chris - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Hello Tony. Thank you for your further clarification; previously I wasn't clear as to how you were viewing these passages. If I may explain my understanding:

    a. Jeremiah 31:34 & Micah 7:18-20. I believe we see these passages differently. In both passages, I see a new Covenant God made & now brings in for Israel. This is not the New Covenant in Christ's Blood which avails for all men, but another Covenant that is different from the Mosaic ( Jeremiah 31:31,32) (& by inference, the Davidic) - a Covenant which will be unconditional (v32); it will include a change in their hearts, fellowship with God, knowledge of God, & forgiveness of sins (vv33-34). In Truth, all this avails for them through the Messiah of God, Whom they rejected & crucified; & so they go the same way as the Gentiles who reject God's Offer of Salvation. Yet, there will be a day in the Millennium, when they will finally acknowledge the One "Whom they pierced" & God will confirm this Covenant made to them & their sins will be forgiven. And also with Micah 7:11-20: God will fulfil His Promises to Israel, to Abraham, & to the fathers of old (v20). These verses also speak of that special time of forgiveness & blessing to the House of Israel.

    b. Revelation 20:10. This verse aligns with Revelation 19:19,20; that the beast & his false prophet were first cast into the Lake of Fire. And Revelation 20:10 shows that Satan also joins them there & their torment will be eternal. So, I don't understand, "Since the wicked are raised from their fiery grave, why do they need a second judgement?" Which 'raising' are you referring to? And which 'wicked'? But if you're referring to vv 11-15 (Great White Throne Judgement), the Books were opened & their names were not found therein - & those dead were raised to judgement, including the finality of death & hell, were all likewise consigned to that eternal flame.

    So I sense that our interpretation of these passages may differ, which I'm happy to pursue.
  • Tony Russo - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Hi Chris, Hi, the "torment" being used for 'testing', in your understanding, does this 'testing' continue eternally without any finality to their judgement?" On Jeremiah 31:34, I am referring to Micah 7:18-20 refers to the remnant of God, "Thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea." The wicked have no part nor have another opportunity for redemption. The "testing" is given by God for the redeemed sake. God's judgment is final. It is not a testing time for unbelievers, but for the saints to know why our loved ones are not with us.

    The "stone" referred to in Mathew 21 was used for joining two walls together, you are correct. Also, I see Matthew 21:24 emphasizing the result of rejecting the stone that crushes them. This is the way I view the Greek Lithos, Strong NT 928 and NT 939 in both Matthew and Revelation 20:10. Since the wicked are raised from their fiery grave, why do they need a second judgement? Have they not been previously suffering under the flames of eternity, some for thousands of years?

    This is not a testing time to see if the lost get another chance at salvation. When the Books are opened, there will be no doubt why the lost are lost. We will be able to read the facts for ourselves. I cannot understand Revelation 20:10 and the raising of the wicked for any other reason.

    I enjoy our study together. "Iron sharpens iron." Please continue to share your thoughts on the subject. Or any other topic of interests you may have. Blessings!

    Praise the Lord! Carol,

    I thank the Lord for delivering you from drug addiction and Jeremiah 32:27 Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?

    1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

    Micah 7:19 He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.

    I have been listening to youtube-Honest News network- Brother Joseph Skinner and I have learned a lot and there are a lot of up load there.

    Ray,

    The 10 Commandments were given by God to guide mankind as a whole and us individually. If we follow them, we will be blessed.

    The second Commandment reveals to us that God is a JEALOUS God ( Exodus 20:5).

    Jealous for our love!

    If there is a possession or belief you hold higher than your love for your heavenly Father, by all means take the proper steps to change that.

    I highly doubt that you are kneeling down and praying to some type of "graven image;" or to anyone other than the Father, and through His only begotten Son.

    The 6th Commandment states: Thou shalt not kill ( Exodus 20:13). It means that you cannot "lie in wait" ( Micah 7:2) and murder someone.

    The Bible was not originally written in English

    The Old Testament was written in Hebrew and the New Testament was written in Greek.

    A Bible Concordance gives you English definitions for all the Hebrew and Greek words of the Bible. Around $20.

    Keep the Faith!
