Sweet Laughter in Heaven - Part 2
In Psalm 2, we learn that when the evil one plots against God and His anointed , God sits on His throne in Heaven and laughs, and scoffs at them. Verse 5 tells us that He rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath. When the enemies of Joseph plotted his slavery and imprisonment, God laughed for He knew Joseph would one day reign over them. When Saul planned David's death, God knew that David would rather write Saul's tribute, so He laughed in the Heavens.
When Pharaoh plotted to pursue and destroy the Israelites, God laughed for He knew He owned the seas and would ask the seas to make way for His children, the Israelites, but to swallow His enemies, the Egyptians. When Haman plotted the assassination of all Jews and built gallows for them to hang on, the tallest for Mordecai, God laughed and scoffed at the threat of eliminating His beloved children. God ensured that Haman was subdued and hang on the tallest gallow -Esther 7:10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king's fury subsided.
When Jesus was sentenced to crucifixion, the Lord laughed. He knew He would have to endure the pain of seeing His Beloved Son suffer, but it pleased Him to allow it, for He saw many more children being born to Him through His Son Jesus. The Lord laughed, for the devil thought death would destroy and end the story of Jesus. Little did he know that God intended Jesus's death to commence the beginning of His Saving Power from Sin. God knew He would resurrect Jesus to overcome the power of Sin , death and hades. Through Jesus, God was going to reconcile many to Himself, and depopulate Hell, the home of Satan.
Today, God still laughs when proud men and women plot against innocent children of His who have placed their trust in Him. God laughs when nations speak against Him and plot against His works. God knows the end from the beginning, He knows the enemy can do nothing except that which He allows. He knows He has the power to over turn the enemies plans, and to save His own. God laughs at how little power His enemies have, and yet how they strut and brag of things they don't know and understand. God's sweet laughter is tinged with pity, pity for the ignorance of His enemies.
Child of God, do not fear your enemies. Your enemies are the enemies of God. Leave them to God, who is laughing because He is about to deal beautifully with them. God is still laughing, for He has not yet finished dealing with His enemies.
