This number is often found in the Bible and it represents both a completed creation and a path to achieving any goal. 7 and 777 are very important in the holly book, especially since God created the world in six days and rested on the seventh.
In addition, the first sentence in Genesis consists of seven words.
Where Is 777 Mentioned in the Bible?
The only time that the Bible specifically mentions 777 directly is in a verse about Noah’s father Lamech:
“Altogether, Lamech lived a total of 777 years, and then he died” (Genesis 5:31).
777 Bible Meaning
SEVEN. It defines the divine superlative in all its splendor and perfection.
It is a seal of the work of the Holy Spirit. As the divine Author of the Scriptures, the Holy Spirit left his watermark of the number seven imprinted on the Bible’s pages, just as the paper manufacturer places his emblem in the structure of the cellulose sheet.
In Creation, the seventh day belonged entirely to God.
He rested on it, preoccupied entirely with Himself.
White light (which is a symbol of divinity) facilitates our perception of the surrounding reality and is composed, as the rainbow shows us, of seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
According to the number’s use in Hebrew tradition, when the number 7 is repeated 3 times as the number 777, it represents the perfection of the Trinity: God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
The Sign of God
In Exodus 20:8-11 it is written:
“Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.”
This commandment is still valid today.
The question is: are you grateful for this gift from God and know how to enjoy it?
777 In Daily Life
If, miraculously, you see 77 or 777 everywhere, it means that the spiritual realm challenges you to discover your desires.
Somewhere deep within your soul, your higher self knows the language of angels and you will immediately understand what divine beings are trying to reveal to you.
You may see the number 777 on a license plate, in a phone number, or displayed on a billboard.
All these signs will appear within a short period of time and will be frequent enough for you to notice them and realize that it cannot be just a mere coincidence.
