"God is going to make things happen that you didn’t see coming." I agree with this. However, it's more likely that God will give your listeners exactly what they've earned; exactly what they qualify for; payment for work performed - insomuch as God is glorified in truth.

If I fear my enemy, there is no room for love or mercy. If I build my defense as strong as steel, and my sword as powerful as the sun, then there is no room for love or mercy (not honestly, not for my enemy).
