Thursday, March 3

He burned down the house of the true God . . . and destroyed everything of value.—2 Chron. 36:19.

 

When the Babylonians were finished with the land, onlookers could only say: “It is a wasteland without man and beast, and it has been handed over to the Chaldeans.” (Jer. 32:43) Some 200 years after Joel’s prophecy, Jehovah used Jeremiah to foretell something else about this attack. He said that a thorough search would be made for those Israelites who engaged in wicked practices—a search that would lead to their capture. “‘Here I am sending for many fishermen,’ declares Jehovah, ‘and they will fish for them. After that I will send for many hunters, and they will hunt them down on every mountain and every hill and out of the clefts of the crags. . . . I will repay the full amount due for their error and their sin.’” Neither the oceans nor the forests would be able to conceal the unrepentant Israelites from the Babylonian invaders.—Jer. 16:16, 18. w20.04 5 ¶12-13

Time and again Jehovah has proven to be the only one to foretell the future with  accuracy. His very name means "He Causes to Become". As scary as these lasts days are, rest assured that He has everything under control!
