Scripture: Psalm 33:10-11
"The LORD nullifies the counsel of the nations; He frustrates the plans of the peoples. The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the plans of His heart from generation to generation."
Commentary:
When leaders claim certainty in their strategies—whether through diplomacy or military force—history often shows how quickly the reality can shift. Someone hearing these declarations might notice how both confidence and desperation can fuel conflict.
