OBADIAH-
Obadiah 1:7
All the men of thy confederacy have brought thee even to the border: the men
that were at peace with thee have deceived thee, and prevailed against thee;
that they eat thy bread have laid a wound under thee: there is none understanding
in him.https://youtu.be/LaG8b0etYK8 Obadiah

NEW- In this small book- 1 chapter- we read of the judgment
of God upon Edom.
They were a people that felt like they were unstoppable.
The alliances they made were their downfall.
As I read the book the other night- it made me think about
our present situation.
Let’s see if I can hit some high points.
We have an alliance with Iran- they are ‘helping’ us defeat
‘terrorism’ in Syria and Iraq.
Yet- they sponsor and carry out acts of terror themselves.
We made a nuclear peace accord with them- which released millions
[billions over time] of dollars.
How are they using that money?
They provide rockets for the rebels they back in Yemen- and
those same rebels fired at our ships the past 2 weeks.
We have an alliance with Turkey- we use their air base to attack
Syria.
Turkey just killed a bunch of the rebels we are backing in
Syria.
Yes- our ‘partner’ killed our other ‘partners’- who themselves
do acts of terror.
Yes- many of the so called rebels the U.S. backs in Syria-
are actually no better than ISIS.
Sad indeed.
I watched a news clip the other week- it showed the out of
work coal miners- and how they are rightfully mad because Hilary Clinton and
president Obama said- on video- they will put them out of work.
Ok- I understand their view- though I do not agree with it.
They believe they need to put the coal industry out of
business- for the sake of global warming.
They said it- many times.
Hillary has now denied she meant it- which is a lie.
Not only did they say this- but it happened.
Some lost their homes- went into debt- and yes- some
actually lost all hope and killed themselves.
So- on the news they tried to show how Obama [and Hillary]
have actually provided other jobs for them.
Ok-
As I watched- they showed an ex coal miner- who’s new job
was working at the unemployment office- providing food stamps and welfare
benefits for other unemployed co-workers.
Yes- this was actually promoted as the success of the Hillary
policy.
I could go on- but it just gets me mad.
In the condemnation of Edom- they saw themselves as doing
great- they even gloated that others were not as great as them [called
exceptionalism].
Yet- they could not see that they too were headed for a
downfall.
They could not see that their so called alliances were a
joke.
They could not see [admit] that they made bad choices- and
were headed for judgment.
I love our country- but when we have one of our soldier’s
die- for a political maneuver- which has just happened in the so called taking
back of Mosul.
Then it’s wrong.
The only justification for war- is self-defense [or the real
preventing of genocide and the slaughter of many innocents]
And in the last decade we have had many people die- on both
sides- because of political maneuvering.
I have been hearing the old Ozzy song a lot the last few
years.
War pigs.
I used to hear it as a kid- had the vinyl album.
But I noticed it’s getting a lot of air time on many of the
rock stations.
I think it has to do with the time we are living in.
If you never heard it- go listen to it.
It seems quite prophetic.
VERSES-
Obadiah 1:1 The vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord GOD
concerning Edom; We have heard a rumour from the LORD, and an ambassador is
sent among the heathen, Arise ye, and let us rise up against her in battle.
Obadiah 1:2 Behold, I have made thee small among the heathen: thou
art greatly despised.
Obadiah 1:3 The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that
dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his
heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?
Obadiah 1:4 Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though
thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the
LORD.
Obadiah 1:5 If thieves came to thee, if robbers by night, (how art
thou cut off!) would they not have stolen till they had enough? if the
grapegatherers came to thee, would they not leave some grapes?
Obadiah 1:6 How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his
hidden things sought up!
Obadiah 1:7 All the men of thy confederacy have brought thee even
to the border: the men that were at peace with thee have deceived thee, and
prevailed against thee; that they eat thy bread have laid a wound under thee:
there is none understanding in him.
Obadiah 1:8 Shall I not in that day, saith the LORD, even destroy
the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau?
Obadiah 1:9 And thy mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed, to the
end that every one of the mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter.
Obadiah 1:10 For thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame
shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever.
Obadiah 1:11 In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in
the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreigners
entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of
them.
Obadiah 1:12 But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy
brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither shouldest thou have
rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither
shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress.
Obadiah 1:13 Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my
people in the day of their calamity; yea, thou shouldest not have looked on
their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor have laid hands on their
substance in the day of their calamity;
Obadiah 1:14 Neither shouldest thou have stood in the crossway, to
cut off those of his that did escape; neither shouldest thou have delivered up
those of his that did remain in the day of distress.
Obadiah 1:15 For the day of the LORD is near upon all the heathen:
as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon
thine own head.
Obadiah 1:16 For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall
all the heathen drink continually, yea, they shall drink, and they shall
swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been.
Obadiah 1:17 But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there
shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
Obadiah 1:18 And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house
of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in
them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of
Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it.
Obadiah 1:19 And they of the south shall possess the mount of
Esau; and they of the plain the Philistines: and they shall possess the fields
of Ephraim, and the fields of Samaria: and Benjamin shall possess Gilead.
Obadiah 1:20 And the captivity of this host of the children of
Israel shall possess that of the Canaanites, even unto Zarephath; and the
captivity of Jerusalem, which is in Sepharad, shall possess the cities of the
south.
Obadiah 1:21 And saviours shall come up on mount Zion to judge the
mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the LORD's.
Note- Please do me a favor, those who read/like the posts-
re-post them on other sites as well as the site you read them on. I deal with
issues at times that it would be beneficial for some of you to download and
save the file from the Word Press link. This creates a permanent record. The
on-line videos are only good if sites are not hacked- which has happened in the
past. Thanks- John.#
