Saturday, November 18: Revelation 18- God's enemy vanquished, defeated and judged .

The theme continues… the end for the enemies of God and all who side with her is sure. While the world and all who made their living supporting Babylon the Great receive their God-ordained punishment, the people of God are called out of Babylon to safety. They rejoice… For God has judged her with the judgment she imposed on you (20c).

Like watching war criminals get their just punishment, the people of God see God’s enemy vanquished, defeated and judged.

These are not pretty days. Judgment never is. However, when judgment is just and true they are good days…

Come, Lord Jesus. Come. Vanquish Your enemy. Establish Your throne in fullness and splendor. Come, Lord Jesus. Come!
