Morning Light - Isaiah 13

Today: [Isaiah 13] Is America Mystery Babylon? In Isaiah chapter 13 the prophet takes up a declaration against the nation of Babylon. At the time that Isaiah prophesies Babylon is not a threat to the nation of Israel or to the southern kingdom of Judah. The immediate problem is the threat of renewed civil war between the north and south and the shadow of the Assyrian empire looming over both kingdoms. Isaiah by the spirit of the Lord looks down through time and sees the Babylonian empire decades later that will destroy both the city and the temple. He also sees the rise of the Medes and Persians to destroy Babylon thereafter. We can see this all as an interesting history lesson but Rev. 17 and 18 speak to us about an end time Babylon that will also be destroyed. Some prophets have had angelic visitations wherein America itself is considered to be Mystery Babylon. Is this possible? Is so, what can we do about it?
