HALIFAX, Nova Scotia, February 26, 2025 – God blessed Nebuchadnezzar with a great empire not because he was a holy man or a child of Israel or a convert to Judaism, but because he gave the remnant (God’s children) shelter and allowed them to thrive under his reign. It didn’t matter that Nebuchadnezzar wasn’t a believer; he did God’s will, and so he was blessed.

It was God’s will that Judah and Jerusalem and all the cities and towns of Israel be overrun by the Babylonian and Chaldean armies and in most cases destroyed. God gave that responsibility into Nebuchadnezzar’s hands, knowing that the king of Babylon would carry out the destruction to the letter and without flinching. It was God’s will that the people formerly known as the children of Israel (but who had turned their backs on God and had become instead the synagogue of Satan) be punished, with the heathen Babylonian and Chaldean armies as their executioners.

Even today – especially today – those who do God’s will and look to the good of his born-again remnant are profoundly blessed by God, regardless of whether they themselves are believers.
