God is not so simplistic as to operate like an on/off switch.
The Old Testament is a repository of His work with people and governments on a sliding scale. Humans are imperfect, and that includes kings. They all had failings, but some of them managed to make themselves useful to God, and He blessed them for it. Yet, even those who were very talented, if they failed to embrace God's agenda, they were counted as evil.
Nor is this a mere question of success as men measure such things. The sole issue is whether God could use the people for His glory. All the best you could possibly have in this world is found in God's glory. An awful lot of things appear to work when they fail God's standards. Thus, for many kings, it wasn't the matter of whether He could use them; God will use people, regardless of their intentions. God is going to do what He's going to do. That's the whole point of the doctrine of predestination. However, communion with Him as Father is the real question.
Those who sought communion with Him might still not fully understand their duties, but the Lord moved His prophets to call them "good" because of their fundamental devotion. We have the extreme example of Manasseh. While he did repent at the end of his reign, he invested 50 years in destroying the moral infrastructure of the Covenant. It was his long history of sin that justified the Exile. His grandson Josiah's devotion got him peace with God during his lifetime, but it could not save the kingdom.
There is the Covenant as stated, and then there is the Covenant implied. The core issue of any ancient covenant was that those under the covenant (vassals) were accountable to the suzerain personally. It was their duty to seek to know his will; they were required to come to him often and cultivate the kind of personal relations that they could eventually predict his whims. The sovereign held all the cards. There was nothing anyone could do to hold him accountable, so it was wise to plumb the depths of how he ruled in previous cases. The premise of the whole system was that, if you really wanted to know, the sovereign would always make himself available. His reputation and fame (his glory) stood on how well his people loved him.
The Code of Noah rules all nations of the world today. Any human government wishing to do what's right is obliged to at least become familiar with the terms of that code. The degree to which a government fails will determine how God's wrath falls on them. How long a government lasts is not the issue. Reality itself follows the Code. Human events at large will reflect God's inscrutable will, but peace with Him is always available, regardless how long a government lasts. You would expect that how a nation ends in history says a lot about how they sought peace with God.
If a government seeks peace with God, He will reveal to them His expectations. Imperial ambition is not inherently evil; it must be tempered by the implications of the Code. It must remain sensitive to God's plans, and He always reveals His plans to His family. That is, He always clues them in on the part that involves them. Thus, while a government might not be fully compliant, if they tend to operate by the Code, they can still receive guidance.
Those people who seek the Covenant directly will avoid centralization by instinct. That's wired into humanity after the Tower of Babel. However, God will work with nations that do not explicitly embrace the Code of Noah, in the sense that He will limit what Satan can do to them.
There is an implied Law of Empires. The basic principle is that in order to rule, you are obliged to occupy. Governments are not permitted to rule by proxy or by external force. What they conquer, they must occupy. This is connected with the principle of property under the Code: If you do not have your hands directly involved, you are not permitted to reap a profit. Thus, an imperial government must colonize and rule directly. It must accept the risks of occupation and colonization in order to rule any other people.
Why do the Jews prosper in manipulating the West? Because they are here and have put their hands on things directly. Why will they eventually fail? Because they aren't honest about it. Risk avoidance is inherently evil. Either trust in the Lord, or stay out of other people's business. Jews are attempting to seize control of the whole world by deception, not by the bold witness of God's power and glory. They aren't working with God's blessings.
Why will America fail to push Russia out of Ukraine? Because the US government is avoiding the risk of direct confrontation. It's doing that with China, as well. Europeans have nothing to gain from any of this, but are being dragged along as cover for some alleged global consensus. Worse, the only benefit from any of this goes to the elite few. The US does not at all understand the Code principle that the people are the real treasure. Instead, the globalist elite are hoping to slaughter most their own people, never mind foreign peoples.
Worst of all is that the globalist elite are merely a proxy for Jews. Witting or not, the entire globalist agenda subjects all to the will of the Jewish elite. By the way, the Jewish elite despise their own Jewish "peasants" -- that was a primary sin of Pharisaism (and of the Sadducees, as well). Countless times in history, the Jewish elite have engineered the slaughter of their own people to make it look like someone else was oppressing them. Do you understand that Hitler was an idiot manipulated by a smattering of Jews in his machinery? He was talented, but not intelligent. Do the research and find out who among his lieutenants were Jewish.
We should be surprised how long it's taking God to destroy the West. Even before the solar catastrophes some 20 years from now, things are going to be very difficult for western governments. Reality is coming back to bite the globalist elite, and they are unlikely to retain their grip over the next two decades. Meanwhile, the solar catastrophes are God's judgment against civilization itself, in general, and the Jewish elite specifically. It should be interesting to watch how Jews try to reorganize and reassert themselves over humanity in the aftermath. As long as Christ does not return, Satan will always have his proxies in the world, and his main tool will always be some type of Jew.
The fools are whoever allows Jews to manipulate them away from obeying the Code.
