Micah Chapter 2, COVID-19 Enacted
In chapter 1 of Micah, we saw, two themes began to take shape.
1 — YHWH is not pleased with the morality of Israel and Judah, at all and Judgment from His hand is coming.
2 — YHWH once again establishes Himself in the flesh, this time as King, all be it, incomplete and imperfect in righteousness, but as we shall soon see, perfect as as far as a physical King is concerned. In other words, end time Israel, in their state of rebellion against YHWHG and His covenant law, got the kind of King they deserved…..Donald Trump, while wildly successful in a material, economic sense, is simply not the fullness of YHWH’s righteousness in the flesh. He is flawed in the way of a priest, but he was not sent to be a priest. He was sent to be a King and there is a vast difference between the two offices.
Beginning right out of the gate in chapter two, we can now see and have a good understanding as to how this judgment takes place.
Micah 2:1–2
1 Woe to those who scheme iniquity,
Who work out evil on their beds!
When morning comes, they do it,
For it is in the power of their hands.2 They covet fields and then seize them,
And houses, and take them away.
They rob a man and his house,
A man and his inheritance.
The statement, “When morning comes,” denotes a time of the year, not a time of any given day. The Dawn of any given year is always around February 20th, and the sunrise of the year is a period between March 6th or 7th until March 20th, a window of time that we saw the increase of cases of COVID-19 in this nation.
The Enemy (The Leftist), backed strongly by the Democratic Party, devised the plan to at the very least to take advantage of this crisis and more likely, when we find out, created the crisis, for the express purpose of carrying out the evil, which is exactly what is described in this passage.
They covet a man’s property, a man’s home, a basically a man’s life’s work and his allegiance. It’s all about POWER in their eyes. Power over mankind.
Micah 2:3
Therefore thus says the LORD,
“Behold, I am planning against THIS EVIL FAMILY a calamity
From which you cannot remove your necks;
And you will not walk haughtily,
For it will be an evil time.
The reference back to Jeremiah 8:1–3 jumps off the page at me when I read this verse.
“At that time,” declares YHWH, “they will bring out the bones of the kings of Judah and the bones of its princes, and the bones of the priests and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem from their graves.”They will spread them out to the sun, the moon and to all the host of heaven, which they have loved and which they have served, and which they have gone after and which they have sought, and which they have worshiped. They will not be gathered or buried; they will be as dung on the face of the ground.”And death will be chosen rather than life by all the remnant that remains of THIS EVIL FAMILY, that remains in all the places to which I have driven them,” declares YHWH of hosts.” Jeremiah 8:1–3
The statement, “THIS EVIL FAMILY,” in both text is a regeneration statement. It bring to the surface the fact that men live again and again, and in this last generation, some men live for the express purpose of judgment, showing their true colors…..worth of condemnation. They love death as opposed to life,m and they are hell bent on working evil for their own gain. This family are the democratic mindsets we see today in government and even on the streets, protesting any form of Godliness at all…….But YHWH is planning great destruction against this family, of which all Israel (America, especially) will eat the fruit thereof.
Micah 2:4
“On that day they will take up against you (The Left) a taunt
And utter a bitter lamentation and say,
‘We (America) are completely destroyed! (because of you)
He (YHWH) exchanges the portion (wealth) of my people;
How He removes it from me (Israel)!
To the apostate (The Left) He apportions our fields (Lifestyle and Homes).’
YHWH is allowing this to occur not only to punish Israel for turning from Him and His ways, but also so that history will show the evil of The Leftist mindset worshiped by The Democratic Party and what it produces, which is death.
Micah 2:5–6
Therefore you will have no one stretching a measuring line
For you by lot in the assembly of YHWH.‘Do not speak out,’ so they speak out.
But if they do not speak out concerning these things,
Reproaches will not be turned back.
Verse 6 reads another way in The Greek (LXX).
Weep not with tears in the assembly of YHWH, neither let any weep for these things; for he shall not remove the reproaches,
I am reminded of another passage from Jeremiah 11:9–14
“Then YHWH said to me, “A conspiracy has been found among the men of Judah (Republican Never-Trumpers) and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem (America). “They have turned back to the iniquities of their ancestors (a regeneration statement) who refused to hear My words, and they have gone after other gods to serve them; the house of Israel and the house of Judah (All America) have broken My covenant which I made with their fathers.” Therefore thus says YHWH, “Behold I am bringing disaster on them which they will not be able to escape; though they will cry to Me, yet I will not listen to them. “Then the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem will go and cry to the gods (Christianity) to whom they burn incense, but they surely will not save them in the time of their disaster. “For your gods (Denominations of Christianity) are as many as your cities, O Judah; and as many as the streets of Jerusalem are the altars you have set up to the shameful thing, altars to burn incense to Baal (The Sunday god). “THEREFORE DO NOT PRAY FOR THIS PEOPLE, NOR LIFT UP A CRY FOR THEM, OR REQUEST FOR THEM ; for I will not listen when they call to Me because of their disaster.” Jeremiah 11:9–14
Notice in this text, we see the reason YHWH is bringing this disaster upon our nation. It is because we have turned from His Covenant Law (Exodus 20 through 23 and Deuteronomy 4 through 31), of which our founding fathers penned and founded our nation upon.
Micah 2:7
“Is it being said, O house of Jacob:
‘Is the Spirit of YHWH impatient?
Are these His doings?’
Do not My words do good
To the one walking uprightly?
To the one walking within covenant law.
Micah 2:8–9
Recently My people have arisen as an enemy (Against Trump) —
You strip the robe off the garment (Skin, Crucifixion)
From unsuspecting passers-by (Those totally oblivious to truth),
From those returned from war (The destruction of The Constitution).“The women (Church and State) of My people you evict,
Each one from her pleasant house.
From her children you take My splendor forever.
Again, the Greek text from The Septuagint lends more information.
Even before-time my people withstood him (Trump) as an enemy against his peace; they have stripped off his skin (Crucified) to remove hope in the conflict of war (Constitutional destruction) . The leaders of my people (both church leaders and political leaders) shall be cast forth from their luxurious houses; they are rejected because of their evil practices; draw ye near to the everlasting mountains. (LXX)
Micah 2:10
Arise and go,
For this is no place of rest
Because of the uncleanness that brings on destruction,
A painful destruction.
This statement is direct to those with understanding. It denotes just how bad of time we are living in, for the stage is set for an even worse calamity. Not a similar admonition for The Sons of Benjamin to flee from The Prophet Jeremiah.
“Flee for safety, O sons of Benjamin, From the midst of Jerusalem (America)! Now blow a trumpet in Tekoa (which means trumpet) And raise a signal over Beth-haccerem; For evil looks down from the north, And a great destruction. Jeremiah 6:1
There is no mistaking the timing. As I have taught many times before, what The Left is doing to Trump is nothing short of a crucifixion. Just as they did with Christ, they have inspected Him for flaws for these days and nights (three years). 2017, 2018, & 2019. That makes 2020 The year of Passover, they year (day) The Enemy finally crucifies Our King. That makes, 2021, the year of The Sabbath (Abib 15), The Rest.
Read again, the text above. “Arise and go, For this is no place of rest (Sabbath)”
It is the sons of Benjamin who have understanding of prophecy. Joseph gave His cup of sight (deviation) to Benjamin, which basically commissioned Benjamin to have the sight Joseph once had to interpret the dreams of Pharaoh. If you are unfamiliar with that story, you might want to revisit that back in The Book of Genesis, chapter 44.
Extending the thought just a little further, Jeremiah goes on to lend more information concerning this worsening calamity coming upon our land. Notice the text and the timing, as well.
I have likened the daughter of Zion To a lovely and delicate woman.
The shepherds with their flocks shall come to her. They shall pitch their tents against her all around. Each one shall pasture in his own place.”“Prepare war against her; Arise, and let us go up AT NOON. Woe to us, for THE DAY goes away,
For the shadows of THE EVENING are lengthening. Arise, and let us go by NIGHT,
And let us destroy her palaces.”For thus has YHWH of hosts said:Cut down trees, And build a mound against Jerusalem (America). This is the city to be punished.
She is full of oppression in her midst. As a fountain wells up with water,
So she wells up with her wickedness. Violence and plundering are heard in her. Before Me continually are grief and wounds. Be instructed (in covenant law), O Jerusalem (America),
Lest My soul depart from you; Lest I make you desolate, A land not inhabited.” Jeremiah 6:2–8.
The time setting is unmistakable. Noon time is June 21, the summer solstice, when the sun is at its zenith. It is at this time of this year (2020), an Enemy of which we will see in just a moment, has its sight on our destruction, but for some reason it changes its mind to wait until and night time of the year, which is winter (October 23 through February 20). The reference to evening shadows may point to an event in the fall, of which might lend an opportunity for or against this enemy……Like maybe the 2020 election in November.
It also needs to be noted, the above text describes an economic siege. Anyone with a brain can see the COVID-19 event will totally destroy our economy, leaving us susceptible to an economic siege and there is an Enemy standing ready to carry out such a siege.
Notice from the next verses in Jeremiah 6, how this occurs and why….
Thus says YHWH of hosts: “They (This Enemy Nation) shall thoroughly glean as a vine (The Possessions, Land, Houses, etc) the remnant of Israel; As a grape-gatherer, put your hand back into the branches.” To whom shall I speak and give warning, that they may hear? Indeed their ear is uncircumcised (rejecting covenant law), And they cannot give heed. Behold, the word of YHWH is a reproach to them; They have no delight in it. Therefore I am full of the fury of YHWH. I am weary of holding it in. “I will pour it out on the children outside, And on the assembly of young men together; For even the husband shall be taken with the wife, The aged with him who is full of days. And their houses shall be turned over to others, Fields and wives together; For I will stretch out My hand Against the inhabitants of the land,” says YHWH.
“Because from the least of them even to the greatest of them, Everyone is given to covetousness (materialism); And from the prophet even to the priest,
Everyone deals falsely. They have also healed the hurt of My people slightly,
Saying, ‘Peace, peace!’ When there is no peace. Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? No! They were not at all ashamed; Nor did they know how to blush. Therefore they shall fall among those who fall; At the time I punish them, They shall be cast down,” says YHWH. Jeremiah 6:9–15
So, how does YHWH say an escape is possible and who might have such knowledge of this coming calamity?
Thus says YHWH: “Stand in the ways and see, And ask for the old paths, where the good way is,And walk in it; Then you will find rest for your souls. But they said, ‘We will not walk in it.’ Also, I set watchmen over you, saying, ‘Listen to the sound of the trumpet!’ But they said, ‘We will not listen.’ Therefore hear, you nations,And know, O congregation, what is among them. Hear, O earth! Behold, I will certainly bring calamity on this people — The fruit of their thoughts, Because they have not heeded My words Nor My (Covenant) law, but rejected it. Jeremiah 6:16–19
Notice, The ones who knows of this calamity are those who adhere to the old ways (paths), called the good way, which is living according to YHWH’s Covenant Law. They are watchmen to The House of Israel (America). They hear the sound of the trumpet…..See verse 1 of Jeremiah 6, quoted above.
Next, Jeremiah identifies this Enemy….
Thus says YHWH: “Behold, a people comes from the north country,
And a great nation will be raised from the farthest parts of the earth.They will lay hold on bow and spear; They are cruel and have no mercy; Their voice roars like the sea; And they ride on horses,As men of war set in array against you, O daughter of Zion.” Jeremiah 6:22–23
Jeremiah, one chapter back, describes this nation like this:
Therefore, thus says the LORD, the God of hosts,
“Because you have spoken this word,
Behold, I am making My words in your mouth fire
And this people wood, and it will consume them.
“Behold, I am bringing a nation against you from afar, O house of Israel,” declares YHWH. “It is an enduring nation, It is an ancient nation,
A nation whose language you do not know, Nor can you understand what they say. Jeremiah 5:15
Whether you think this nation is Russia or China…..Or Both, it fits with our geo-political landscape we see today. We are seeing prophecy play out before our very eyes…..If you have eyes to see and ears to hear.
Back to Micah…..
Micah 2:11–13
“If a man walking after wind and falsehood
Had told lies and said,
‘I will speak out to you concerning WINE AND LIQUOR,’
He would be spokesman to this people.“I will surely assemble all of you, Jacob,
I will surely gather the remnant of Israel.
I will put them together like sheep in the fold;
Like a flock in the midst of its pasture
They will be noisy with men.“The breaker goes up before them;
They break out, pass through the gate and go out by it.
So their king goes on before them,
And YHWH at their head.”
Wine and Liquor…..False Teachings. Lies told by our religious and political leaders that has brought us to this place of judgment. Verse 12 is then a regeneration statement, as YHWH has resurrected all of Israel who has ever lived, regenerating them in this last generation, the 120th jubilee of the offspring of Jacob/Israel. The breaker that goes up before them is the nation(s) spoken of by Jeremiah, which comes from the north and will break on our land like a rough wave onto the sea shore, at the direction of the hand of YHWH, Our King.
End of Micah 2. Micah 3 coming soon.
