Nations and Rulers

"And He made every nation of men of one blood, to live on all the face of the earth, ordaining fore-appointed seasons and boundaries of their dwelling, ..."[Act 17:26]

"This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the command by the word of the holy ones, so that the living may know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men and gives it to whomever He will. And He sets up over it the lowest of men." [Dan 4:17]

"And all those living in the earth are counted as nothing. And He does according to His will among the army of Heaven, and among those living in the earth. And no one is able to strike His hand or say to Him, What are You doing?" [Dan 4:35]

"And he was driven from the sons of men. And his heart was made like the animals, and his home was with the wild asses. They fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of the heavens, until he knew that the Most High God is Ruler in the kingdom of men, and that He appoints over it whomever He desires." [Dan 5:21]

"As streams of waters, the king's heart is in the hand of Jehovah; He turns it wherever He desires."
[Pro 21:1]


If Father determines the times and boundaries of all nations and who rules them and how and when, are not all who are in power now placed there by Him for His purposes?  And were not Gandhi and Hitler and Churchill and Idi Amin and Pol Pot?
 
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith Jehovah. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts." [Isa 55:8-9]

"I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil. I am Jehovah, that doeth all these things." [Isa 45:7]
