Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord and against his Anointed, saying, "Let us burst their bonds apart and cast away their cords from us. He who sits in the heavens laughs; the Lord holds them in derision.”
Psalm 2:1-4 (ESV)The Lord holds those who ignore Him and who make plans to succeed without Him in contemptuous ridicule for their ignorance. Ignoring God is the same as disobeying Him.
All nations throughout history have the same struggles. Those who are given authority, if they are Godless, try to make all things about themselves. In the process, they are limited in knowledge, understanding, and wisdom.
The most outstanding leaders in history were the greatest followers of God and His directives.
The Godless create burdens and then try to legislate ways to carry them. The Godly experience burdens and give them to the only one who can carry them.
Without God, we are left with raging leaders who plot in vain to fix what they cannot.
