“By the swords of the mighty warriors, all of them the most terrible of the nations, I will cause your multitude to fall. “They shall plunder the pomp of Egypt, and all its multitude shall be destroyed.” Ezekiel 32:12
This is also said in Ezekiel 31:12 and also Ezekiel 30:12, which includes “illegal aliens” but referred to nowadays as “migrants”. Click here for a post on Ezekiel 30. Click here for a post on Ezekiel 31.
When God refers to the most terrible of the nations, He is referring to those who are far from His will. They are terrible to God, terrible to Jesus Christ, and terrible to the Holy Spirit. They are hardened in their spirit and conscience and are among those who blaspheme the Holy Spirit and will never find forgiveness from God, “…he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation”—Mark 3:29
The most terrible of nations are merciless, without pity, ruthless, and absolutely void of holding value for human life. “But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!” 2 Timothy 3:1-5
At the hand of the most terrible of the nations, America and all of her allies will fall. All of America’s pomp, her show of magnificence and splendor, will be plundered. Everything that has made America great in the past is destroyed. That includes her economic wealth, military prowess, and cultural foundations rooted in Christianity. America’s global prestige vanishes, economic leverage gone, and military power among her allies abroad eliminated. America and all of those who allied with her destroyed.
We can think of the most terrible of nations as being the atheistic terrorist state of Iran, along with the atheistic nations of Russia, China, North Korea etc. Their mighty warriors not only include their military might that they depend on, but also includes “illegal migrants” and the global culture that are terrible to God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. Together, they form the character of the world government and its global culture. Instead of serving God through Jesus Christ, their god is the atheistic entity that governs through thoughts, feelings, words, and behaviors. This entity replaces the human conscience and spirit to enable the image of the beast to live and speak through people in every city across the globe. They feel no remorse, sympathy, guilt, or compassion as they are groomed to the mark of the beast by what they are given to say and do.
As followers of Jesus Christ, we come apart from the most terrible of nations, as the Holy Spirit directs us to do, “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues. For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities. Render to her just as she rendered to you, and repay her double according to her works; in the cup which she has mixed, mix double for her.” Revelation 18:4 Jesus Christ gives us the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
“….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets,“
‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’”
“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
Revelation 2:24-25, 3:1
