Dragons of The Nile River were the Hippo and Crocodile. Yet this is more about Pharoah and the creatures of the Nile itself. This is about destruction of Egypt and the clinging to the king of Egypt. Though Egypt will always be consider an ancient city, it is also a very modern land. Yet the size Egypt never really grew. The sin that plagued Egypt was Idolatry and the enslavement of the Hebrew people. Egypt would be laid waste like Tyre, but the wealth of Egypt would be plunder by Babylon. In Revelations it talks of Dragon chasing the Women in the desert. Egypt chased Israel and then the Pharaoh and his army was destroyed by the Red Sea, being entrapped as the walls of water collapsed around them, after Israel went through the Red Sea.

If we only read the Bible from Historical points, there will be references of scripture not understood without knowing the history already laid out in scripture. Prophesy does contain foretelling, but it also tells of the passed. This chapter is both telling of the passed as well as the future of Egypt. The prophesy to Egypt was to bring Egypt hope of being returned to her land and hope and trust in God, yet they did not believe. Israel influences on other nations had to do with their fear of God and the prophesy God spoke through the prophets. The truth contained within the future of the land of the tribes of the ancients, were told. One nation strong against the cities around her was Babylon. Yet Babylon too would go in exile of its own.

God would use the prophesy to convict the heart of the believer and unbeliever in foreign lands, but not in all cases would anyone believe. God of the world exalting the warnings two the people of the world. God still exalts prophecy to the world. The world ignores the prophesy. The truth of the matter God will be served and every knee will bow and declare Jesus Christ Is Lord to the glory of God the Father. The prophesy of the Son would be known even in ancient Egypt for Christ would go to Egypt as a baby, because of Herod desire to kill him and then would return to Nazareth where he would grow up.

Egypt being a part of history of the Bible. Though a pagan land prophesy surrounded her. God using prophesy to demonstrate his power. Let us not forget despite who side you are on God or the devil, God is going to let his power be known. His power will reign. He will be glorified through out the World.

Dear Heavenly Father I give you thanks for all you do in demonstrating your power to both the heathens of our world and to the believer. In Jesus precious name, Amen.
