The land is bombed to its foundations and the false god beaten to pieces and burned with fire

“Therefore I will make Samaria a heap of ruins in the field, places for planting a vineyard; I will pour down her stones into the valley, and I will uncover her foundations.” Micah 1:6

To make a city “a heap of ruins” to the point of being able to make it farmland, “places for planting a vineyard”, is total devastation. That is exactly what the bombs in today’s world are able to do, and have done, and are doing, whether nuclear bombs or just extremely powerful non-nuclear bombs. During the days of the Bible, Old Testament and New Testament, the word “bomb” didn’t exist in the vocabulary. Neither did explosions, guns, nuclear, rockets, gunpowder, airplanes, tanks, drones, etc. In that light, the Holy Spirit speaks in symbolisms in terms that the people in the year 2025 and beyond can understand, as seen in the symbolism-rich book of the Revelation.

In light of the previous paragraph, to “pour down stones into the valley” is obviously some very powerful bombs that are able to “uncover her foundations”. Nowadays, we know how quickly the “pouring down of stones” upon a city can completely level a city down to and even beneath its foundations. The symbolism-rich book of the Revelation is really easier to understand than many people seem to think. The events within the Seven Trumpets are filled with very easily to understand symbolism which the Holy Spirit has given us to understand in these “modern times”.

“All her carved images will be beaten to pieces, and all her pay as a harlot will be burned with the fire; all her idols I will lay desolate, for she gathered it from the pay of a harlot, and they will return to the pay of a harlot.” Micah 1:7

The post on Micah 1:1 gives some insight into what the “pay of a harlot is”. This relates to king Hezekiah, who revealed his wealth and treasures to foreigners, while making an effort to keep Godliness in his nation, as described in Micah 1:1. Unfortunately, by playing the harlot with finances, this led his nation into captivity of the Babylonians [represents the global government]. In today’s world, all the wealth and treasures of nations around the world are laid bare for all the world to see, basically seen in the international stock exchange. More than that, all the nations’ wealth and treasures are laid open to the United Nations, which are progressing in becoming the one world government, with a one world economy. In fact, each nation around the world is required to pay a certain percentage from their national wealth and treasures to the United Nations [a chart of those payments is seen in the post on Micah 1:1]. This brings the nations into the captivity of the global government as every nation is required to adopt the agenda and goals of the United Nations [a chart of the “sustainability goals” of the United Nations is seen in the post on Micah 1:1].

Harlotry also relates to giving oneself to a false god instead of being faithful to the God of Jesus Christ. The global government of the United Nations derives its power and authority from the false god that has power over physiology to give people what to think, feel, say, and do. This entity governs through the populations of people around the world, and through the votes, will, riots, and protests of the “grassroots” populations, nations are forced, persuaded, or coerced to conform to the will of the United Nations. The entity that governs through the physiology of people everywhere enlivens the image of the beast to live and speak through people as they are groomed to the mark of the beast by what they are given to say and do. Our Lord says, “All her carved images will be beaten to pieces, and all her pay as a harlot will be burned with the fire; all her idols I will lay desolate…”

“Therefore wail and howl, go stripped and naked; make a wailing like the jackals and a mourning like the ostriches, for her wounds are incurable. For it has come to Judah; It has come to the gate of My people—To Jerusalem.” Micah 1:8-9

Since the Jewish people rejected Jesus Christ 2000 years ago, their wounds have been incurable. Since God gathered the Jewish people to the State of Israel in 1948, there has been 18 Israeli wars. There was even a war in 1948. Click for a list of those wars and scroll close to the bottom of the page. God gathered the Jewish people to the State of Israel as the place where He unleashes His judgment on them, “Therefore thus says the Lord God: ‘Because you have all become dross, therefore behold, I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem. As men gather silver, bronze, iron, lead, and tin into the midst of a furnace, to blow fire on it, to melt it; so I will gather you in My anger and in My fury, and I will leave you there and melt you. Yes, I will gather you and blow on you with the fire of My wrath, and you shall be melted in its midst.” Ezekiel 22:19-21

2000 years ago, if the Jewish people would have accepted Jesus as their Christ and Son of God, the State of Israel would never have existed. That’s because as Christians, we do not have a nation on this earth to call our own, our nation is the New Jerusalem in the new heaven and earth. Also, the Jewish culture would not have existed because as quoted, “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” Galatians 3:28-29

“Tell it not in Gath, weep not at all; In Beth Aphrah [House of Dust] roll yourself in the dust. Pass by in naked shame, you inhabitant of Shaphir [Beautiful]; The inhabitant of Zaanan [Going Out] does not go out. Beth Ezel mourns; Its place to stand is taken away from you. For the inhabitant of Maroth [Bitterness] pined for good, but disaster came down from the Lord to the gate of Jerusalem. O inhabitant of Lachish, harness the chariot to the swift steeds (She was the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion), for the transgressions of Israel were found in you.” Micah 1:10-13

“Harness the chariots to the swift steeds” is symbolic for something that the people in the days of the Bible could never imagine. The Holy Spirit speaks in those symbolisms as a way for us in the year 2025 and beyond to understand. Chariots harnessed to horses meant battle capabilities, and today those metal chariots with horsepower have a whole new meaning. In this day, the “House of Dust” rolls in dust, the “Beautiful” are seen in naked shame, the inhabitants of “Going Out” do not go out. There is mourning because there is no place to stand, the inhabitants of “Bitterness” desires good but disaster comes instead from the judgment of God.

“Therefore you shall give presents to [Possession of Gath] Moresheth Gath; The houses of Achzib [Lie] shall be a lie to the kings of Israel. I will yet bring an heir to you, O inhabitant of Mareshah [Inheritance]; The glory of Israel shall come to Adullam [Refuge].] Make yourself bald and cut off your hair, because of your precious children; Enlarge your baldness like an eagle, for they will go from you into captivity.” Micah 1:14-16

“Enlarge your baldness like an Eagle” once again combines Israel with America regarding the judgment of God coming to them both. The Eagle is the national emblem of America. Israel is known to be just like America, referring to Israel being the only democracy in the Middle East region. Also, as we know, both tend to be in the “same the boat” when it comes to world condemnation. This condemnation mostly comes from the military aggression of Israel, perpetuated by the military and intelligence support of America. God is against America for helping Israel to depend on power and might instead of relying on His Spirit through Jesus Christ. This is seen especially in Ezekiel 17 and Ezekiel 19. Then there is Ezekiel 26 through 32.

To “give presents into the possession of Moresheth” means to give surrender and submit to the will of another nation. Like giving a percentage of national income to the global government of the United Nations. The phrase, “The houses of Achzib [Lie] shall be a lie to the kings of Israel” means that Israel will never really be a part of the world government. The phrase, “I will yet bring an heir to you, O inhabitant of Mareshah [Inheritance]” means that Israel will be given into the hands of those they once fought against, such as being under the control of the will of the United Nations. The phrase, “The glory of Israel shall come to Adullam [Refuge]“, means that the glory Israel once enjoyed now will seek refuge under the umbrella of a foreign nation [not America], such as the members of the United Nations.
