Isaiah 34:2: “The LORD is angry with all the nations; He is furious with all their armies. He will devote them to destruction and give them over to the slaughter.”


What God’s wrath tells us

– His holiness will not tolerate sin (Habakkuk 1:13).

– Rebellion brings inevitable judgment (Psalm 2:1-5).

– “Devoted to destruction” (herem) means complete removal of evil (Deuteronomy 7:2).


Actions that align us with His will

1. Repent without delay

• Admit personal and collective sin (1 John 1:9).

• Let godly sorrow produce real change (2 Corinthians 7:10).

2. Separate from ungodly alliances

• Refuse friendship with the world’s rebellious systems (James 4:4).

• “Come out from among them and be separate” (2 Corinthians 6:17-18).

3. Practice daily holiness

• Test every thought and deed by Scripture (Psalm 119:9).

• Obey in small matters; faithfulness grows there (Luke 16:10).

4. Seek refuge in Christ

• Trust His blood to shield from wrath (Romans 5:9).

• Continue walking under His lordship (Colossians 2:6).

5. Intercede for the nations

• Pray that leaders and peoples repent (1 Timothy 2:1-2).

• Share the gospel so others escape judgment (Matthew 28:19-20).

6. Live in confident hope

• Look toward the new creation where righteousness dwells (2 Peter 3:13).

• Persevere, knowing judgment precedes restoration (Revelation 19:11-16).
