Proverbs 17:11
An evil man seeketh only rebellion: therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.
Rebellion is defined is respects to the Words of instruction given us by the Almighty Father. An evil man is therefore one who seeks that which is opposite to the Word. We have a promise that such person, may he be preacher politician or everyday citizen will receive its just retribution. God is the Rewarder of the obedient and the Retributor of the rebellious.
This principle is at work within and without the realm of God’s Children. We have seen how the Great Almighty destroyed the Egyptian realm from under its rebellious ruler. We have seen how a cruel messenger was sent to indiscriminately destroy the first-borns of that country. God may give His only begotten One to rescue His first-born (Israel), but a cruel messenger is also sent against Egypt’s first-born. God may have watched as the Egyptians gleefully threw Israel’s newborn males into the sea, but He had the last laugh as Egypt’s boy-soldiers drowned into the Red Sea. God had the last laugh also when in 1980 He took the fistborn of Madalyn Murray O’Hair (the founder of the American Atheists Foundation and the person who is responsible for to removal of prayer out of school) to be baptized and later to become a preacher. A cruel messenger was also sent against his Mom and she died of the most cruel death.

God is not mocked. History is a testament to His dealing against those who oppose His plans. Today’s politicians and policy-makers would do well to take a warning from it. Even in our own life we need to review our own loyalties and ask ourselves, ‘Whose side is God on?’ Loyalty is not a question of what we feel is right and just, but a question of obedience His Word whether we agree with it or not, whether it fits our plans or not.
If we put ourselves on His side, we avoid the cruel messenger.
