**Isaiah 47:3** — *"Your nakedness will be uncovered and your shame will be exposed. I will take vengeance; I will spare no one."*
Babylon was not merely a city. She was a civilization that believed her power made her permanent — that her cruelty could be cloaked in luxury forever.
God saw through the garments.
This is the covenant reality of divine holiness: what is hidden from human eyes is fully visible before the Lord. Babylon's confidence was built on concealment. Her collapse was not accidental — it was *disclosure*.
Scripture reminds us that exposure in God's hands is not cruelty. It is mercy in its most severe form — the stripping away of what we have trusted *instead of* Him.
Walk with that sobering truth today: there is no empire of self-sufficiency that stands before holy eyes.
Let us reflect on what we are still asking God not to see.
