Ecclesiastes 10:5-7
5 There is an evil I have seen under the sun, like an error which goes forth from the ruler— 6 folly is set in many exalted places while rich men sit in humble places. 7 I have seen slaves riding on horses and princes walking like slaves on the land.
What is meant here is that often times people who have greatness within them are in lowly positions while those with no greatness within them are found in high positions. This flip-flop often causes countries to rot from within, uprisings to occur, and persecutions to run rampant. Very bad things occur when someone who can’t lead is leading. Let us make a concerted effort to pray that God will raise up strong, godly leaders for our future.
