There are several verses that say God laughs at the wicked.
Psalm 37 contains one of them…
The wicked plot against the
righteous and gnash their teeth at them; but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he knows their day is coming.
This type of laughter is one of complete unbelief
at the absurdity of the situation.
Imagine a tiny ladybug crawling up your sleeve threatening to topple you
over with its legs. Wouldn’t that be
absolutely absurd? With one flick of
your finger you can send that ladybug flying to never return.
How much more does the God we serve send away
the wicked with one blast of his nostrils?
That’s why he laughs at their schemes and plans to destroy us. They have no power over us because we belong
to Him. Their arms are too weak to even
stand on His mighty arm that sustains us and provides for us.
If we could only grasp the bigness, the goodness,
the righteousness of the God who loves us, we wouldn’t panic when we see with
our eyes that it appears he is delaying.
We would laugh along with Him at the absurdity of it all, and that
laughter might indeed bring us the healing we’re awaiting!
