 Who can outwit God? Not a single one. So then, why do we worry when wicked people in power make plans? You know, by the way, it's very difficult to change the world if all we ever do is react to it. Here's what the Bible says. The kings of the earth set themselves and the rulers take counsel together against the Lord and against his anointed. He who sits in the heavens laughs. The Lord holds them in derision. Nothing catches God by surprise, least of all evil plots. What others plot for evil, God uses for good. And his divine setups bring forth salvation and freedom. God will not fail. Light cannot be overcome by darkness.
