Jeremiah 51, Babylon’s Final Judgment: The Fall of a Proud Empire

Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, and against them that dwell in the midst of them that rise up against me, a destroying wind; 2 and will send unto Babylon fanners, that shall fan her, and shall empty her land: for in the day of trouble they shall be against her round about. 3 Against him that bendeth let the archer bend his bow, and against him that lifteth himself up in his brigandine: and…

Jeremiah 50:11-29, Be Watchman on the Wall

This evening, if you have your Bibles turn with me to Jeremiah chapter 50, we’ll want to continue to where we left off last week. Last, on Sunday, we left off at verse number 10.

Babylon is a nation that had been used by God to chastise Judah for their lack of obedience to the Lord and their lack of willingness to walk with Him and their willingness to seek to follow other…

Daniel 5, Willing to Speak the Truth

In Daniel chapter 5, the prophet Daniel stood before King Belshazzar during a night of pride, idolatry, and judgment. When the mysterious handwriting appeared on the wall, none of the wise men of Babylon could explain its meaning. But Daniel, filled with courage and faith, was willing to speak the truth—even when it exposed the king’s sin and announced God’s coming judgment. This powerful chapter reminds us that true faith is not silent in the face of corruption. Like Daniel,…

Jeremiah 50:1-10, God’s Judgment on Babylon and Hope for Israel

Jeremiah 50:1–10 opens with a bold prophecy against Babylon, the empire that once seemed unstoppable. God declares that her idols will be exposed, her strongholds shaken, and her pride humbled. At the same time, these verses shine with hope—Israel and Judah will seek the Lord again, and God promises deliverance for His people. This passage reminds us that no nation, however powerful, can stand against God’s judgment. For believers today, Jeremiah 50:1–10 is both a warning against trusting in worldly…

Jeremiah 49:7-22, Judgment on Edom’s Pride

Concerning Edom, thus saith the Lord of hosts; Is wisdom no more in Teman? is counsel perished from the prudent? is their wisdom vanished? 8 Flee ye, turn back, dwell deep, O inhabitants of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him, the time that I will visit him. 9 If grapegatherers come to thee, would they not leave some gleaning grapes? if thieves by night, they will destroy till they have enough. 10 But I have…
Daniel 4, The Most High Governs All

Daniel 4, The Most High Governs All

We want to continue our study through Daniel, if you have your Bibles then turn with me to Daniel chapter 4. The events that have transpired over the last couple of weeks have left a lot of people in our nation, number one, shocked that it would happen, but secondly, there seems to be a tremendous move, especially among many young people, to have listened to the message that Charlie Kirk brought, and we need to pray that true revival…

Jeremiah 48, Pride – The sin that always goes before the fall.

Jeremiah had brought prophecies against the southern kingdom of Judah for their rebellion against God. And if you remember, the Lord had told Jeremiah when he called him, I’m going to place words upon your lips to share, but people won’t listen. And what a calling to tell the Lord to tell you that. And that’s exactly what the nation of Judah did. They didn’t listen. But God wanted them to know he’s not done with them yet. And he…

Daniel 3, Unbowed – When culture says conform, conviction says no.

Turn with me to Daniel chapter 3. We’ve been studying through the book of Daniel, and we’ve been looking at three amazing young men. Four amazing young men, rather.
