Sea of Forgetfulness

Micah 7:19 - "He will again have compassion on us; He will tread our iniquities under foot. Yes, You will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea."

God will always help us understand His great intent with symbolism we can understand. His metaphor is meant to give us hope and solace regarding His love for us. The prophet tells us through the Holy Spirit (and His analogy) that it is not enough to merely throw our sins into the lowest parts of the ocean. God demonstrates His great love toward us by first pulverizing our sin under His feet. The picture is one of complete dominion over sin and a thorough crushing until they are lifeless and impotent. Then, he takes this mangled mess of iniquity and buries it deep in the sea of forgetfulness.

It is quite tragic when we take our spiritual trawlers to the site of our submerged iniquities, seeking to salvage them from the depths of the sea. God has placed buoys about the place of our water burial with "No Trespassing" signs clearly marked. Just remember, God has buried our past and desires we leave it buried. We are free to sail through life without a care or bother regarding who we used to be. We are certainly new creatures in Him if we have accepted His great gift (II Corinthians 5:17).

  1. NEW YEAR’S WORD FOR THE HOMOSEXUAL COMMUNITY -AS WELL AS OTHER EVIL DOERS!

    Jan. 1, 2015

    I speak unto thee this day and I say expect in the times that are ahead to see many strange things. That is, to see many strange things in terms of my signs, my wonders, my miracles that I bring forth. I say do not expect that you will know exactly what it is that transpires for you will not. I say that I desire that all men would know and recognize that it is me the Living God who reigns supreme. It is me the Living God who shall show forth as it pleases me, upon a wicked, a perverse, a vile generation so shall my demonstrations arise. But I say likewise to those who will indeed thoroughly repent, I say that I will give demonstrations of my mercy. Yes indeed a people will know, understand, and realize what it is to walk uprightly in me. It is me the Living God alone who is able, it is me the Living God who shall prevail and it is me the Living God who shall bring forth.

    I say in the times that are ahead, I say let your expectation, let your hope be ever in me. For I say you are not meant to look upon the chastisement, the punishment, the wrath that I show forth upon the wicked and receive the same into your bosom. But I say you are meant to look upon those things that increase in the fear, the respect of me. For I say that it is me the Living God you are meant to be serving, you are meant to be walking in obedience unto, day by day. It is me the Living God you are meant to follow after for I am indeed the I AM God. I say that I the Living God will correct and instruct the ones who will serve me in the way of gratitude day by day. That is, the ones who will be thankful to perceive, receive, and be ever guided forth by me.
