11/10/2024 Nahum 2:2-13 The Sad End Of The Assyrians Intro: The Book of Nahum was written to between 663 and 612 B.C. Just at the time of and the end of the Assyria empire’s capture of the northern kingdom of Israel and the rise of Babylon who took the southern Kingdom of Judah captive in 597 BC. The Assyrian Empire was defeated in 609 BC by King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. Nahum did not write this book as a warning or “call to repentance” for the people of Nineveh. God had already sent them the prophet Jonah 150 years earlier with His promise of what would happen if they continued in their evil ways. The people at that time had repented but now lived just as bad if not worse than they did before. Nahum was telling the people of Judah to not despair because God had pronounced judgment and the Assyrians would soon be getting just what they deserved. God is patient and slow to anger. He gives every country time to repent of sin and follow Him as Lord. But He is not mocked. Any time a country turns away from Him and rejects righteousness, evil results, and He steps in with judgment. This was true for Assyria, and it will be true for any nation today. As Christians it is our duty to stand up for biblical principles and proclaim Christ, for it is only in repentance and the life-changing message of the gospel that any country can find hope. Therefore I say unto you……Donald Trump is going to be president….Is it just me or there something that seemed too easy about this…..The Republicans won everything! Prosecutor Jack Smith is backing down on Trump prosecution. Trump has already announced that he will put an end to Transgender surgeries on children and end to all this Trans gender affirming as a government policy. Trump has a ten-point plan to get rid of the deep state. Kamala and Tim Walz were the two WORST presidential candidates in history!!! If Trump had lost it would be the worst election defeat in American politics. Kamala was never elected by the Democrats she chosen for some reason….either arrogance or ignorance! They thought they could not lose because they are out of touch with American’s or this was a plan to lose….. This is all too perfect….. 2008 Obama 69 million votes 2012 Obama 66 million votes 2016 Hillary 66 million votes 2020 Biden 81 million votes 2024 Kamala 68 million votes See anything here? Where are the 13 million votes from 2020? Don’t you think that is strange? I hope it is because of brave men like Mike Lindell who showed the world how they probably cheated in 2020 and they just simply could not pull it off in 2024….or was it something else? I don’t know….. but one thing for sure we will know is a few months. You think these globalists and the Satanic agenda is giving up? Then you don’t read your Bible. Evil men shall wax worse and worse! I believe we could be in the time of peace and safety then sudden destruction cometh. The Apostle Paul said that Israel will make a peace treaty with the Man of sin, the Anti-Christ! Jesus said that in the last days people will be buying, selling, building, planting, marrying and giving in marriage and giving not thought to the things that are coming on this earth. Are we heading for that time? I don’t know. But God does…… This passage presents a description of the siege of Nineveh. Lets look at Nahum and his prophecy to the Assyrians might tell us something…..
