Psalm 9:15
The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
The wicked dig a pit only to fall into it. They step in their own traps. They never fail to forget God in their accounting. They always forget to include sovereignty. They never budget for Someone else's omnipotence and always assume their own.
Psalm 35:8
Let destruction come upon him at unawares; and let his net that he hath hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall.
It is right and fitting that the vile should be struck by their own villainy. Conspirators deserve betrayal. They are paid in the coin by which they do commerce.
Psalm 141:10
Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape
The powers that be are never as powerful as they seem... or believe themselves to be. This is good news for dark days like ours. The godless can never rig the system for they always fail to account for God. Their arrogance is an ignorance. Stupid isn't a strategy. Insanity is incoherent. Sin does not work. Praise God.
