God uses Jeremiah’s pen to speak doom to nations that have sinned against Him, nations such as Babylon who have abused His people. “Babylon the great has fallen.”
God’s enemies will all assume the posture of worship, falling down before Him. They stand in their false strength for only a time. Then, when God’s cup is full against them, He arranges other nations and the elements to bring about their demise.
Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by him. The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him. [Nahum 1:6,7]
