ObadiahObadiahs prophecy unveils Gods sovereignty over all nations and events, and gives an example of his direct intervention in the political and military affairs of human history. The Sovereign LORD does as he pleases with the powers of heaven and the peoples of the earth. No one can hold back his hand or say to him What have you done? It is the God of history who summons and equips the nations to destroy the Edomites for their arrogance and violence against their brother Jacob. It is the Judge and Ruler of mankind who gives the Edomites no hope of salvation. It is the great King over all the earth who, in accordance with his everlasting covenant, delivers the house of Jacob from their enemies and reunites them with their northern brothers.
Both prophecies are a revelation of Gods character and his moral government of the worlda revelation that contains a message of hope, comfort and encouragement for everyChristian THE LORD REIGNS FOR EVER! It matters not how many nations oppose his rule or oppress his people; it makes no difference how many spiritual forces of evil ally themselves for his dethronement, for the Lords purposes will prevail. All that he has promised will be fulfilled. He is in control. His dominion is an eternal dominion.
