“The godly have been destroyed from the land, there is no one upright among humankind. They all lie in wait for blood, each hunts his brother with a net. Their hands do evil well. The prince makes his request, the judge grants it for a price, and the great man expresses his evil desires-thus they weave it together.”
Micah 7:2-3 CJB
What we see here is what was going on in Micah’s day roughly 2700 years ago, sadly it is no different today! Godly people are removed from public square (social media, schools and government institutions)! Evil people do evil things really well! Corruption in almost every facet of life! What are we to do?
“Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we praise the name of Adonai our God.”
Psalm 20:7 CJB
What do you put your trust and hope in? Is it God who will answer? Or the world that will let you down?
“Don’t trust in your neighbor; don’t put confidence in a close friend; shut the gates of your mouth even from [your wife], lying there with you in bed.”
Micah 7:5 CJB
What Micah is saying here is don’t make these people your go to! Make God the first stop for all questions and concerns!
“But as for me, I will look to Adonai, I will wait for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me.”
Micah 7:7 CJB
Like Micah let’s look to Adonai for all our needs and concerns not the world and its evil trappings!
Have a blessed day seeking God!
