God Says "I Will Break The Assyrian In My Land"

God says: “I will break the Assyrian in My land.”

“That I will break the Assyrian in My land, And on My mountains tread him underfoot. Then his yoke shall be removed from them (Israel), And his burden removed from their shoulders.”
(Isaiah 14:25)

If you read Isaiah 13 & 14 as single chapter without considering the chapter division, you will discover that those chapters are about the Day of the LORD (13:9-10) when the sun and moon do not give their light and the stars fall from heaven. The context is about the future destruction of Babylon in the land of the Chaldees (13:19).

The subject continues with the future and final  restoration of Israel who will sing a proverb against the king of Babylon (14:1-4). In 14:12-15 we discover that Lucifer is the power behind this king of Babylon who becomes a man in 14:16. In 14:25 God calls him “the Assyrian” whom God will break in His (God’s) land and stop his oppression against Israel.

Isaiah 13 & 14 is an eschatological end time passage referring to none other than the Antichrist who is called the “king of Babylon” who is empowered by Lucifer and who is an Assyrian. This Assyrian Antichrist is associated with the land of Nimrod in Micah 5:5-6 and according to Genesis 10:8-11, Nimrod’s land are the cities he built in the land of Shinar and Nineveh in Assyria.

  

What does God mean by “My land” in Isaiah 14:25?
In Genesis 15 we read:

  

According to this passage, the land that God gave to Abraham’s descendants stretches from the Nile River in Egypt all the way to the River Euphrates in Iraq as seen on the image below.

  

This land included the very land that Satan chose to create a world empire under Nimrod at the time of the building of the Tower of Babel in Genesis 10 & 11. When we dig deeper, we discover that Satan wants this portion of land back so he can reestablish his end time empire under the Antichrist in the region of ancient Assyria and Babylon so he can finally destroy God’s people Israel living next door.

No wonder Isaiah says the Antichrist will be the king of Babylon who will be empowered by Satan/Lucifer and will be an Assyrian. We must look for the revival of the Babylonian empire in the land of Iraq in the coming days. This land is part of God’s original land that He gave to the Israelites and that is where God will destroy the Assyrian Antichrist king of Babylon, the land of Iraq.

Jesus is coming soon! Have you made him your Lord and Savior yet?
