Pamphlet 1655 Micah kc 14-1

The hour of darkness is soon upon us.

But there is good news and that Good News is Jesus Christ, the Light of the world.

Micah 7:8
Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light unto me.
When I "fall" means to fall into calamity, i.e. to be in that time of "darkness" when Satan is here, when the Assyrian comes upon the land to make it spiritually desolate.

As it is written "We are the children of light" and Christ is our light which shines during the hour of darkness.

1 Thes. 5:5 "Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness."

[9] I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against him, until he plead my cause, and execute judgment for me: He will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold His righteousness.
This is important!

"The time of trouble such as never was since there was a nation (Dan. 12:1)" is coming and we learned in the final verse of our last study that we need to be patient and stay in His Word, i.e. look unto the LORD, and He will bring us forth to the light and we shall behold His righteousness (not our righteousness for we are sinners), as that light shines through us!

In other words, He will perform a marvelous and wondrous work through His servants in these last days.

That is why they will be singing the song of Moses (Deut. chapter 32) at the victory celebration as documented in Rev. 15:3 "And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints."

Let us repeat verse 7:

Micah 7:7
Therefore I will look unto the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.
Are you one of God's elect?

If so, what is it God will hear you say?

"Save me?"

No!

Pay attention to study #1656 because if you are one of His elect you love mercy and you SERVE HIM and you ask and receive for that which furthers that service (work), knowing that your salvation is sure in Him!

You see, to God's elect the salvation of their families, their brothers and sisters, is actually more important to them and weighs on their minds more heavily than saving their own necks.

Have you ever read the Book of Jonah?

The hour of darkness is soon upon us.

But there is good news and that Good News is Jesus Christ, the Light of the world.

To study the Bible is the noblest of all pursuits; to understand it, the highest of all goals.
We pray that with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, you accomplish both.
