Isaiah 46-47

In these chapters the focus is on Babylon.  These would have been words of hope to those living in exile under Babylonian rule.  God used Babylon to punish Israel, but God sees its wickedness and will humiliate both it and its gods.  When I read passages like this it is a reminder that whatever powerful forces there are in our day that set themselves up against Jesus Christ will not triumph in the end.  In their day and in ours, God wins.  Read it here.
