God will establish His kingdom by punishing His enemies and rewarding His saints according to His word.
Obadiah’s message is not a light one. He stands unique among the prophets by primarily announcing God’s judgment on the enemies of His people. However, like a two-sided coin, this message of judgement for those who turn against Him is inseparable from the message of salvation and restoration for God’s people. And that’s a message that can lead us to greater confidence, endurance, and gratitude.
