Jeremiah 51:
19 The portion of Jacob is not like them; for he is the former of all things: and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: the LORD of hosts is his name.
Our God is Alive. He is Eternal. Israel is the instrument of punishment that He inherited. Jesus Christ is the Lord of Hosts. 

20 Thou art my battle axe and weapons of war: for with thee will I break in pieces the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms; 
God will use Israel, in the latter days, as His weapon of war. He will use Israel to break apart the nations and destroy kingdoms.
