Dear friend,
The "wrath of man" is not beyond the control of God. "Man" is the most powerful of all God's visible creatures, as far as we can see around us. Look around you and see the artificial things set up by man in comparison with other creatures and you will agree that man is dominating in this world. The wrath of man speaks of the powerful man in determined actions. This is not to be tampered with, as man would have his way, no matter what!
The wrath of man shall praise God. This does not mean that man's wrath is always right and honouring to God for often it is not, but full of sins. Irrespective of its moral value, the wrath of man shall praise God because God is in control of that wrath absolutely in whatever outcome He plans it to bring about. Much of the wrath of man may be like the ugly pieces in a zig-saw puzzle, but they all fit together with the other pieces to give the complete beautiful picture of the puzzle when finally completed.
Such is God's assuring words to us: "We know that all things work together for good to them that love God". We know, and there is no doubt about such things, and therefore can be thankful by faith. "All things are for your sakes, that the aboudant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God". The grace of God, that brings salvation, operates abundantly through the thanksgiving of many. The more many of us learn to give thanks for all things, the more will we see the grace of God at work. We can't see because we are not grateful.
God's Name is greatly glorified by His people who submit to Him confidently, joyfully and thankfully. Amen.
