Little Weak Things Vs. Big Mighty Things (1 Cor. 1)

Sometimes it looks like the ungodly and the wicked will swallow the whole world. Who’s stopping them? Aren’t they doing anything and everything they please? And crushing or canceling anyone who disagrees with them?

A Bible passage comes to mind:

Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble are called. But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty. 

And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are…  1 Corinthians 1: 25-28

Enemies of God, enemies of truth, despisers of the human race, are riding high just now: this is their era, they’re convinced of it–one more push, and they’ve got their global government! They’ve got the money, they’ve got the power, they’ve got the schools and the media–what can possibly go wrong?

I don’t know. God will take them down by something they never expected, never even thought of–something they would laugh at, if they saw it.

We can continue to declare the truth of God’s word: the predators don’t like it, they’re blinded by rage when they hear it–in short, we are a diversion. While they’re busy chasing us, they won’t turn and see what’s chasing them. They’ll never sense it till it leaps upon their shoulders.

And that–rejoice!–will be the end of them.
