No More Time to Delay
(Prayer Walk thro Nahum 1-3)
Backgrounder: To whom much
is given, much is also required.
Nineveh had been given the
privilege of knowing the one true
God. Under Jonah’s preaching
this great Gentile city had repented
and God had graciously stayed
His judgment. But now about
150 years later, Nahum proclaims
the downfall of once mighty
Nineveh. The Assyrians had
forgotten their revival and had
returned to their habits of violence,
idolatry and arrogance. As a result,
Babylon would so destroy the city
that no trace of it would remain,
a prophecy fulfilled in painful detail.
Dear Lord,from Nahum’s prophecy,
we learn anyone who remains
arrogant & rejects God’s authority
will face His anger. Yet those who
keep trusting God will be kept safe.
Knowing that U God are not only
Holy & Jealous, but also Good,
help us to relate to You Reverently
with Trust and Gratitude. Amen.
