In 2 Chronicles Chapter 36 we see two examples of God using foreign Kings to bring about His purposes.
Nebuchadnezzar, the King of Babylon (to punish a wayward people).
We see their problem in v.15-16.
"The LORD, the God of their fathers, sent word to them through his messengers again and again, because he had pity on his people and on his dwelling place. But they mocked God's messengers, despised his words and scoffed at his prophets until the wrath of the LORD was aroused against his people and there was no remedy."
God also used Cyrus, the King of Persia to reward and free a repentant people.
TFTD: God is very patient, but at some point His patience runs out.
Have a great day,
Peter Clark.
