How does God confound the plans of mankind?

Answered in 1 source

God confounds the plans of mankind by intervening in ways that display His sovereignty over human ambition.

In the narrative of the Tower of Babel, God confounded the languages of the people to stop their ambitious plans to reach heaven through their own efforts. This act shows that despite humanity's collective ambition, God’s sovereign will prevails. The scattering of people and the confusion of language serve as a powerful reminder of God's authority and His ability to disrupt our plans when they are rooted in pride and rebellion. This truth invites Christians to submit to God's will rather than attempting to pursue their own agenda apart from Him.
