Micah 2:7


God is all powerful, all seeing and all knowing......nothing is impossible with Him! His Word is powerful for good to those who are in Christ Jesus and trust only in Him. God always has the final say in our life and in the life of His creation.

The words of God bring good to the righteous even as they bring judgment against the wicked.

The idea here is that one might not expect justice from pagan leaders in a faraway place. But the rulers of the people of God were expected to emphasize justice. Justice is one of the key concepts of the Law. Perverting justice was strongly prohibited by God . Yet this was precisely what the leaders of Judah were doing. They had used their authority to destroy justice rather than to establish it among the people.

Micah 2:7

7 You who are named the house of Jacob: 
“Is the Spirit of the Lord restricted? 
Are these His doings? 
Do not My words do good 
To him who walks uprightly?
