Isaiah 2:22 " Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?"
Stop trusting in man ...
God will humble the arrogant in power. He has a day designated to do this. But, until that day dawns, people of God's Kingdom must live knowing that even the apparently powerful but ungodly will be brought to ruin. We shouldn't trust in human power; it can evaporate like dew in the morning sunshine. Human power is limited by death. When the breath of a tyrant is gone, so is his power. Once the life of an evil person is over, all that is left is the evil. Our trust must be in Christ, the Lord God of Heaven's armies. Anything else is a dim, small, and distorted reflection of the real thing ...
1 Peter 5:5 " ... for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble"
