According to you, there are no wicked people who are successful because God either drowned them or burned them. Please. Honestly. There are plenty of "successful" wicked people and has been thoughout history. Look at Ahab and Jezebel. You assume because you're a "leader" or "wealthy" your "successful". That's nonsense. God doesn't measure success by those factors. The only reason anyone is in a position of authority or wealthy is because it was God's will.
