Oh, nations of the world, why do you rise up in power but do not acknowledge the power and sovereignty of God? Why do you distribute wickedness across the land? From east to west and north to south, you cast out deception and illusions like a magician to be received by a distraught and unholy people whose patterns and cycles reflect your nature.

Do you not understand where your strength comes from? Oh, nations of the earth, how foolish are you? How deceived are your ways that cause destruction and pain upon the nations. Who will give account for the suffering? Will you stand proud upon your mountain of wickedness in judgement?

With the mighty sword, you will slay and with a mighty hand I will judge. You provoke the weak. You laugh at the plight of war, destruction, poverty and anguish that turns strength into dust. The arm of the wicked man shall be broken. Vindication of the righteous is near.
