I AM AGAINST YOU / NAHUM 2:13

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Nahum 2:13

Behold, I am against thee, saith the Lord of hosts, and I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword shall devour thy young lions: and I will cut off thy prey from the earth, and the voice of thy messengers shall no more be heard.

I AM AGAINST YOU / NAHUM 2:13

It was God Himself who stood opposed to Nineveh. Their brutality, cruelty and inhumane acts had been so extreme that the almighty God of the universe declared war against them. The opportunity for them to repent and turn to God for mercy was past. They would now receive the torture and grief they deserved (Revelation 18:6-8).

THE LIONS’ DEN / NAHUM 2:11-12

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Nahum 2:11-12

Where is the dwelling of the lions, and the feedingplace of the young lions, where the lion, even the old lion, walked, and the lion’s whelp, and none made them afraid? 12 The lion did tear in pieces enough for his whelps, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his holes with prey, and his dens with ravin.

THE LIONS’ DEN / NAHUM 2:11-12

The Assyrians had unmercifully attacked, robbed and totally destroyed other nations, much like lions that kill and tear apart their prey. The Assyrians showed no compassion or mercy for the people. Now they would be attacked, conquered and killed without mercy (Nahum 2:10). Jesus teaches His followers about this principle when He said, “all who draw the sword will die by the sword” (Matthew 26:52; Revelation 13:10).

ITS WATER IS DRAINING AWAY / NAHUM 2:8

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Nahum 2:8

But Nineveh is of old like a pool of water: yet they shall flee away. Stand, stand, shall they cry; but none shall look back.

ITS WATER IS DRAINING AWAY / NAHUM 2:8

Some interpret this as a picture of the people fleeing from the city, like water rushing out of a large container.

THE RIVER GATES / NAHUM 2:6

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Nahum 2:6

The gates of the rivers shall be opened, and the palace shall be dissolved.

THE RIVER GATES / NAHUM 2:6

These gates apparently are the floodgates or dams that controlled the Khoser River, which ran through the city. They may have been closed to gather a large body of water and then suddenly released with tremendous force to damage the walls of the city.

HE SUMMONS / NAHUM 2:5

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Nahum 2:5

He shall recount his worthies: they shall stumble in their walk; they shall make haste to the wall thereof, and the defence shall be prepared.

HE SUMMONS / NAHUM 2:5

“He” is probably the Assyrian king, calling on his soldiers to resist the attackers.

SHIELDS OF HIS SOLDIERS / NAHUM 2:3

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Nahum 2:3

The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his preparation, and the fir trees shall be terribly shaken.

SHIELDS OF HIS SOLDIERS / NAHUM 2:3

The appearance of the attackers (Nahum 2:1) would cause much fear.

ON THE STAFF OF LEVI WRITE AARON’S NAME / NUMBERS 17:3

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Numbers 17:3

And thou shalt write Aaron’s name upon the rod of Levi: for one rod shall be for the head of the house of their fathers.

ON THE STAFF OF LEVI WRITE AARON’S NAME / NUMBERS 17:3

Numbers 17 defends God’s choice of the tribe of Levi as ministers and Aaron as high priest. The Lord performed a miracle to demonstrate His choice of leadership (Numbers 17:8). Under the new covenant, godly leaders who faithfully proclaim God’s Word must be recognized and obeyed (Hebrews 13:17: Romans 13:1-4; 1 Timothy 2:1-3).

YOU HAVE KILLED THE LORD’S PEOPLE / NUMBERS 16:41-50

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Numbers 16:41-50

YOU HAVE KILLED THE LORD’S PEOPLE / NUMBERS 16:41-50

When God’s judgment fell on Korah and his allies, the Israelites complained against Moses as if he had brought the judgement. The people had been so deceived that they thought the rebels were the most spiritual men among them. God’s people need discernment to make sure that they do not follow leaders who are not from God.

WITH THEIR HOUSEHOLDS / NUMBERS 16:32

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Numbers 16:31-32

And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them: 32 And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.

WITH THEIR HOUSEHOLDS / NUMBERS 16:32

The sons of Korah did not die along with their father. They must have refused to participate in his rebellion (Numbers 26:11).
