Strategic Retribution and Intelligent Scattering

Whenever nations smartly orchestrate the building of monuments to gird against the eternal purpose of the Most High, He shows up to defend His established plans. Who can hold back a people God intended to scatter everywhere He wills? Take a lesson from the tower builders at Babel.


Moreover, whenever nations exalt themselves against the Most High, rejecting His standards and following the dictates and desires of their own hearts, they get every just retribution He thinks they deserve:


Their hearts begin to grow faint when no one is terrifying them.


Their cruel enemies defeat them in battle.


Invaders and looters ravage their territory and cart away with their wealth.


Persons who hate the people are made to rule and reign over them, wearing false cloaks of leadership.


Oppressors and manipulators will enslave and impoverish them by making them bow to dumb and lifeless  idols and desires.


Some will begin to flee away from homeland in frustration when no one is pursuing them.


Others will be carried away as captives to enemy territories, where they will remain dwellers with fainting heart.


Even the sound of a light but shaky leaf will cause them to abandon their priceless land of inheritance.


Some of them shall flee away  seeking asylum, as though a sword was chasing after them.


The nations will stumble over and wound themselves in the rush to save their own lives from capture.


Right in the midst of the overthrow of  rebellious nations, nations in right standing with the Most High will rather stick their feet deep into the ground and defend their own territory, like fearless ferocious young lions do.


They will enjoy timely rain and their land will bring forth abundantly and their fields will yield fruit.


Their harvest activities will start and continue until the next planting season, so that they will always have plenty in store.


They will consume and maximise their utility everytime and every where they turn.


They will live safely and securely in their own land.


The peace they experience and share with others will be heavenly and incomprehensible to the natural human mind.


They will live and rest comfortably in their own country and nobody will be able to scare them away.


Their country and environment will be alien to destructive and oppressive leadership as well as corrupt marauders.


They will enjoy peaceful coexistence with their neighbours, within and outside their territory. 


Their formidable defense armies shall chase away and ward off destructive and corrupting influences.


They shall be clothed with grace, attracting goodness and mercies at every turn of their road.


The Most High will look favourably on such a people and make them fruitful in their own land.


The covenant-honouring eternal Designer and Creator of all things will multiply and showcase them to the world.


They shall consume what they have in store from their bountiful harvest and cheerfully also give out old stock, to make room for abundance of new stock.


They will be commonly referred to as pleasant gardens of the Lord with fresh brooks and flowing rivers.


Their human bodies will be habitable dwellings for the glory and majesty of the wisdom of the Most High.


They will be full and overflowing with ideas, concepts, and insights beyond their background, learning, and years of life.


Every enslaving bands and yokes will broken from off their necks.


Every cruel bondage will be terminated  in their generation.


They will called God's own special people, whom no created being can enslave.


They are princes and princesses, free as air and at liberty to serve the only Living and True God Most High.


They will stand erect above the perversity and crookedness of their generation.

...

Each side of the divide can seen clean clearly through human history. When we sit to make any choice, we must stand up for the consequences. 


A cross over can be a difference making turning point for everyone. Self-made ideals crafted by one's own actions may need to give way for divinely dictated orders.


Our human resolve to achieve success or prominence by our own efforts may need to yield to guided thoughts towards a previously prepared direction.
