Cromwell believed, during the Civil Wars, that he was one of these people, and he interpreted victories as indications of God's approval of his actions, and defeats as signs that God was directing him in another direction.
Cromwell trodde under inbördeskriget att han var en av dessa personer, och han tolkade segrar som tecken på att Gud godkände hans gärningar, och förluster som tecken på att Gud ledde honom i en annan riktning.
