March 5 - Assyria Humiliated – Isaiah 10:5-11

 March 5 - Assyria Humiliated –  Isaiah 10:5-11

 

     God is going to judge Assyria.    God has used them as a rod of anger and a club of his wrath against Israel.  They will be used to bring down godless nations and be dispatched to bring judgment.  They will seize lot and plunder.  This was not their intention at first, but it becomes a way of lifestyle for them.  They call themselves Kings and many major cities and empires fell to the Assyrians. 

     God used them to bring down the idols of other lands.  There idols were greater in the minds and heart of the people than Isarel had for theirs and yet God brought them down.  One day that is going to happen to Assyria.  It would be a alliance of Medes, Persians and Babylonians that bring them down.  This is the theme of this chapter.
