The Prophet Nahum:
Sometimes God will give us over to the desires of our hearts (Romans 1) because we tell him those desires are what’s best – better than his plan. The Israelite’s trusted their enemies. They were vassals to Assyria, Babylon, and other kingdoms, who led them astray, and ultimately, betrayed them. Our sin does the same to us. But even when sin takes us captive, sin doesn’t triumph forever. God provides a way back home and restores us. Evil will not triumph forever.
