Read This Small Book of the Bible if the Enemy’s Oppression Overwhelms You

But Nahum reminds us of a couple things. First, the book reminds us that the bully is no match for our God. At some point God’s justice will prevail. Nahum teaches us that the systems of this world don’t stand a chance.

Connected with this is the character of our God. As the podcast I was listening to on Nahum pointed out, it is a lot like the children’s prayer, “God is great. God is good.” No matter what we see around us, we can know that ultimately the good God will be great. Whether in this life or the next, wrongs will be made right.

Which leads to one other thing. When we are frustrated with the way the world is working, we can bring it to God. That is actually the best place to start. Sometimes we read the Psalms, and they are almost uncomfortable to read as they express their frustration and anger with the world around them. But these types of passages are reminders that we are best to bring these things to God and then from that place we can receive instruction from Him on the specific part we are to play in the world around us.
