Habakkuk 1:5 Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvelously: for I will work a work in your days which ye will not believe, though it be told you.
WWI, WWII, and the Gulf Wars are the days of the heathen.
6 For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to possess the dwellingplaces that are not their's.
The US is a bitter nation, lots and lots of complainers despite being the wealthiest, freest, and best place to live on earth. They are also hasty. China thinks in terms of hundreds of years, Russia, Europe, these countries all have histories much longer than the full lifetime of the USA. Not only so but there is no other nation that has set up military bases in so many countries. I think we have more foreign bases than the next five countries combined.
7 They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves.
We are impressed with our Navy Seals and Blue Angels and Army Rangers. But the rest of the world looks on in awe and see how terrible and dreadful they are.
8 Their horses also are swifter than the leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves: and their horsemen shall spread themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they shall fly as the eagle that hasteth to eat.
Yes, the military equipment we have with smart bombs, drones, cruise missiles, night vision, bunker buster bombs, all these things are more fierce than evening wolves. You would think that Afghanistan or Ukraine or Iran is a long way from the US, no need to worry about them, but that is not the way they think of us. They hide in the shadows, looking over their shoulder for some drone flying in on them.
9 They shall come all for violence: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity as the sand. 10 And they shall scoff at the kings, and the princes shall be a scorn unto them: they shall deride every strong hold; for they shall heap dust, and take it.
We have this attitude in the US and the rest of the world is stunned by it. We mock the kings and Queens and Sheiks and think they are buffoons. The rest of the world fears the tyrants knowing full well that you cross the queen you end up dead in a car accident, or you cross the Sheik and you end up dead from suicide or home invasion.
11 Then shall his mind change, and he shall pass over, and offend, imputing this his power unto his god.
Yes, the US has become arrogant. God used us to humble the rest of the world, but look at us now. Look at Hollywood, look at our Main stream media, look at our government. The US does not worship Jesus. They worship their God, fornication, abortion, and materialism.
12 Art thou not from everlasting, O Lord my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die. O Lord, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established them for correction.
The USA has been established for correction. We have corrected the rest of the nations for their arrogance and now it is our turn. We will are being corrected right now.
