“For the day of the Lord upon all the nations is near; As you have done, it shall be done to you” Obadiah 1:15
We are at a pivotal time in the heart of God. The judgment of God is upon all nations.
This prophesy relates to Jacob and Esau. Jacob inherited the promises God made to Abraham. Esau, his twin brother, founded the nation of Edom.
Jacob respected God and Esau lived a rebellious life. The people of Edom participated in the destruction of Israel and looted many of their valuables.
Today this prophesy is about the outcome of the seed of Jacob and those who live like the people of Edom.
It is important to delineate between the seed of Jacob and those who identify as Christians. There are many so called believers who are no different than the people of Edom.
The favor of God in this prophesy is directed to the holy ones who have laid down their lives for Christ. Where there has been affliction, suffering, and repression there will be deliverance by the hand of God.
The judgment of God will fall on all those who are arrogant, prideful, and live in rebellion against our mighty God.
On Mount Zion there will be deliverance and holiness. The seed of Jacob will possess the riches of the people of Edom just like what happened to the Israelites when they departed from Egypt.
Our amazing God will create a blazing fire in His people unlike anything before while the people of Edom will be destroyed.
Either you are for God or against Him. There is no middle ground!
