Today: [Nahum 3] Nineveh’s Destruction: Chapter 3 of Nahum describes the ultimate and total destruction of Assyria, the empire that preceded Babylon. Assyria besieged Jerusalem more than once, and totally annihilated the northern kingdom of Samaria, yet their empire was brought to a complete end by the sovereign hand of God. Thus we learn that God uses even those in enmity against Him to accomplish His sovereign purposes.
