In this episode, we survey the powerful message of the Old Testament book of Obadiah—the shortest prophetic book, yet one filled with sobering truth and glorious hope. Obadiah exposes the pride of Edom, the descendants of Esau, who rejoiced over Israel’s suffering and trusted in their own strength rather than the LORD. God declares that no nation, fortress, wealth, or alliance can shield the proud from His righteous judgment. As Scripture says, “The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee” (Obadiah 3, KJV). Yet the prophecy does not end with judgment. It looks forward to the day when God restores His people and establishes His kingdom. Obadiah 21 declares the triumphant conclusion of history: “And the kingdom shall be the LORD’S.” This study explores God’s justice, His faithfulness to His covenant people, and the ultimate triumph of His kingdom through Jesus Christ. Join us as we uncover the timeless warning against pride and the unshakable promise that the LORD will reign forever.
