Oh my, Obadiah! How rich and prophetic are your words! It’s a little book (the shortest book in the Old Testament) but the message is larger than our imagination can possibly comprehend. 

Obadiah mentions the wise men of Edom.  They were wise in the ways of the world but foolish because they ignored God.  Sounds like today's "wise" men.

Obadiah warns the enemies of Israel, "nor rejoice over the people of Judah in the day of their destruction , nor boast so much in the day of their trouble."   Interestingly, even today, the enemies of Israel rejoice over any military action against them.

Obad 1:15a
"The day of the LORD is near for all nations.

Obadiah wrote that the Day of the Lord is near. Echoing throughout Scripture in both Old and New Testaments is an urgency concerning the impending Day of the Lord.

Rev 1:1
The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place.

"This was written about 96 AD, yet God said that this plan “must soon take place”. There is an element of urgency in this Scripture as there are elements of urgency in much of Scripture concerning the coming Kingdom and these last days."
(quote from the book THESE LAST DAYS by Phil and Patti Moore)

While there is much doom and gloom attached to these last days, there is also this great promise from the little book of Obadiah.

Obad 1:21b
And the kingdom will be the LORD's.

HALLELUJAH!
