God Confounds the Wicked and Sets His People Free
Throughout the pages of Scripture, we see a remarkable and recurring truth:
God confounds the plans of the wicked and turns their might into madness.
Time and again, His people have faced enemies who appeared unstoppable—armies greater in number, nations stronger in power, rulers darker in intention.
Yet in every generation, the Lord proved that He is never outnumbered, never outmaneuvered, and never outmatched.
God fights battles in ways that defy human strategy. He can break chains without swords. He can scatter adversaries without armies. He can cause the plans of oppressors to unravel from the inside until they destroy themselves. In these sacred stories, the hand of the Lord moves with precision and authority—transforming chaos into deliverance, fear into freedom, and deception into exposure.
Here are powerful moments in Scripture where God confounded the enemies of His people and turned their unity into confusion:
1. The Battle of Gideon — Judges 7:19–22
Gideon’s 300 men stood against a vast Midianite army with nothing but torches, trumpets, and obedience. As they obeyed,
“the Lord set every man’s sword against his fellow.”
The Midianites turned on each other in panic and self-destruction.
God does not need numbers—He needs your trust. He can make your enemies collapse under the weight of their own fear.
2. Jehoshaphat’s Victory Through Praise — 2 Chronicles 20:22–24
As Judah worshiped, God acted. The Ammonites, Moabites, and Edomites—three united armies—turned against one another until not one was left standing.
Your praise can do what your strength cannot. Worship confuses darkness.
3. The Syrians Struck with Blindness — 2 Kings 6:18–23
When the enemy surrounded Elisha, God struck them with blindness and confusion. They stumbled helplessly into Samaria and were rendered powerless.
God can blind every scheme aimed at your downfall. The enemy may gather, but it will not prevail.
4. Confusion at the Tower of Babel — Genesis 11:7–8
Though not a military enemy, Babel shows the pattern: God confounded their language and scattered their plans when human pride rose against His purpose.
No scheme built on arrogance can stand against the wisdom of God.
5. The Philistines Confused — 1 Samuel 14:15–20
Jonathan’s bold faith triggered a divine response. The Philistines trembled, panicked, and attacked one another.
One courageous step can release heaven’s intervention on your behalf.
6. Confusion Among the Egyptians at the Red Sea — Exodus 14:24–25
As Israel walked through the sea, God threw the Egyptian army into confusion. Their chariots swerved, their confidence broke, and their pursuit ended forever.
The forces that once chased you will lose power when God steps in.
A Message for This Time and This Generation
Just as in days of old, God still sees.
God still hears.
God still intervenes.
When a nation becomes entangled in corruption—when a syndicate hides behind influence, layering lies upon lies, covering evil with more deception—God does not look away.
He allows their schemes to grow only until the appointed moment of exposure.
And when that moment comes, their alliances shatter, their unity collapses, and the very lies they built become the trap that ensnares them.
A time comes when corrupt powers begin attacking each other, exposing one another, tearing apart the web of deceit they once wove so tightly.
Every last strand of their evil fiber will be cut.
Not by human strength alone—
but by the God who defends truth, judges wickedness, and liberates the oppressed.
Stand firm.
Stay faithful.
Cry out to the Lord who has delivered before and will deliver again.
For the God who confounded Midian, scattered Moab, blinded Syria, shook the Philistines, and drowned Egypt—
is the same God who watches over nations today.
He confounds the counsel of the wicked.
He strengthens the righteous.
He brings hidden things into the light.
And He sets His people free with a victory that no one can deny.
When God rises to act,
oppressors fall, truth prevails, and freedom comes like the dawn.
