God is in control
Isaiah 10:12-15 “When the Lord has finished all his work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, he will punish the speech of the arrogant heart of the king of Assyria and the boastful look in his eyes. 13For he says:
“By the strength of my hand I have done it,
and by my wisdom, for I have understanding;
I remove the boundaries of peoples, and plunder their treasures; like a bull I bring down those who sit on thrones. 14My hand has found like a nest the wealth of the peoples; and as one gathers eggs that have been forsaken, so I have gathered all the earth; and there was none that moved a wing or opened the mouth or chirped.” 15Shall the axe boast over him who hews with it, or the saw magnify itself against him who wields it? As if a rod should wield him who lifts it, or as if a staff should lift him who is not wood!
These verses tell us directly that God is in control of all situations. When your enemy is winning, God is in control, we may not know why this is happening but the Bible over and over tells us that the Lord of Host is working his will. God is the reason for everything and we as believers know that if we are in Christ we are loved by him and we must live in humble praise to him. These verses tell us that the king of Assyria became proud and took the credit away from God. God hates when he does not get the glory he deserves. If we want to experience the joy of our salvation through the Lord Jesus then we must count all things as joyful and praise Jesus for he is in control of all things. For your glory Lord Jesus. Amen
