“This is the lamentation with which they shall lament her; The daughters of the nations shall lament her; They shall lament for her, for Egypt, and for all her multitude,” Says the Lord God.’” Ezekiel 32:16
Egypt was not just supporting the Israelites with military aid but was supporting other countries in the same way. The countries Egypt was empowering with armament were under the watch of the Babylonian Empire, ruled by king Nebuchadnezzar. That brought the wrath of king Nebuchadnezzar on Egypt for troubling the waters around his empire. God used king Nebuchadnezzar to bring His wrath on Egypt. The countries that depended on the Egyptians mourned because of Egypt’s destruction.
Today, it’s easy to envision what would happen to other countries if America dropped out of the picture. Presently, there are many countries around the world that depends on America’s power and might for military aid, military intelligence, and funding of military campaigns. Those countries include not just Israel, but the NATO allies, South Korea, Ukraine, Taiwan, Japan, countries of the South China seas, etc. We can definitely envision their mourning when America’s global power and might is thrown down. America is also powerful in its global economic presence which brings wealth, luxury, and prosperity to other nations. America’s loss of global economic influence adds mourning on top of mourning for daughter nations.
A very similar fate is going to happen to the world government and its global culture as is happening to America, Israel, and her other allies, as depicted in Revelation 18. “Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great!’ She has become a dwelling for demons and a haunt for every impure spirit, a haunt for every unclean bird, a haunt for every unclean and detestable animal.”
“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. The kings of the earth who committed fornication and lived luxuriously with her will weep and lament for her, when they see the smoke of her burning, standing at a distance for fear of her torment, saying, ‘Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour your judgment has come.’” Revelation 18:6, 9-10
“….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
