This was a film that was filmed and directed for our "Night at the Oscars" event that we had a couple years ago... I found it and thought I would share it!

A Refuge and Strength

"The Lord is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble; and He know those who trust Him" (Nahum 1:7)

I remember being at the British Museum in London a couple years back and seeing engraved stones actually recovered from Ancient Nineveh and it was brutal! The Assyrians prided themselves in their brutality and you could see it in their decorations filled with Assyrian soldiers chopping off heads with knives, spears sticking through victims as the army was depicted on horses trampling over the dead. The book of Nahum is a proclamation to the Ancient Assyrian Empire concerning the severe judgment of God that was to come... The severity of God is very obvious in the text yet we still see God's love and grace as He warns them through the prophet, "The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked" (Nahum 1:3). So we see clearly the truth that God is a just Judge, but not only that, but we see opportunity for repentance. "The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and He knows those who trust Him." Although He was going to (and has) make Assyria a heap of ruins, He promised to be a refuge to anyone who would simply put their trust in Him! And yes that includes people, who were so far from Him that they made furniture of human leather!!! God truly is good, repent from sin and put your trust in Him!
