The Sovereignty Of God | Sweet Comfort
Shared on: Sep 23, 2019
The Scriptures indisputably present God as the holy and sovereign Ruler of the Ages. This truth is meant to draw our hearts to awe-inspired worship, and unshakable confidence in the fact that God's will cannot be thwarted. There is no wisdom, no power, and no authority which stands superior to our God's. In all things, he alone is the Sovereign. In every hour, he alone is the Victor. Holy, ineffable, immortal, unchanging, and preeminent, our God is working all things according to the counsel of his good and perfect will. Even now we know that for those who love God all things are working together for their good. The confidence of our faith is anchored in the reality that our God reigns in perfection over every season, every trial, and every heart. No one can stay his hand. No one can thwart his plan. What he promises shall always come to pass. He is truly Lord of All. May this collection of resources strengthen your proclamation of these wonderful truths to your community.
