Israel, Oil, and Natural Gas

And what one nation in the earth [is] like thy people, [even] like Israel, whom God went to redeem for a people to himself, and to make him a name, and to do for you great things and terrible, for thy land, before thy people, which thou redeemedst to thee from Egypt, [from] the nations and their gods?
---II SAMUEL 7.23


Right now the energy sector is kind of simmering quietly.  But there's no denying it that the powder keg of The Middle East and Israel along with the primary economic catalyst of oil and possibly now even natural gas will ignite some major market fluctuations soon.  But the leaders of the world are forgetting that God is involved.  They would like to brush God aside in their matters but it will not happen because God promises to be exalted in the earth:

Be still, and know that I [am] God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
---PSALM 46.10
