“Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more” (Isaiah 2:4).
As we saw yesterday, today many nations of the world are anxious for power and influence. Sometimes they wage war with one another using weapons, while at other times they use economic methods to force other nations to do what they want them to do. Certain commodities such as oil, wheat, coffee, uranium, lithium, etc. have all influenced relationships between various countries. As I write this in 2023, the present war between the Ukraine and Russia is having a strong influence on trade and commerce worldwide.
However, there is a day coming, in the millennium, when all this will come to an end. Nations will still exist during that time, but they will not go to war with one another. The Lord will reign from Jerusalem in righteousness, and there will be peace for the entire 1000 years. You and I, if we know the Lord Jesus as our Savior, will be in heaven with the Lord, but what a wonderful time it will be for this world!
