Our God is sovereign

August 1 2018

Sovereign is our God!

Isa 46:8 "Remember this and stand firm, recall it to mind, you transgressors,

Isa 46:9 remember the former things of old; for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like me,

Isa 46:10 declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things not yet done, saying, 'My counsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all my purpose,'

Isa 46:11 calling a bird of prey from the east, the man of my counsel from a far country. I have spoken, and I will bring it to pass; I have purposed, and I will do it.

This month we will look at our God's sovereignty. God is sovereign, completely sovereign, not just over some things, not just over the “important stuff” but over all. He is totally, and completely in control. In control of the car that just missed you, and the dust particle that floats in the sunshine that comes through your window. EVERYTHING is controlled by God!

What about adversity? What about an unhappy marriage, or a failed one?

The misscarrige we had?

Or my spiritually rebellious child?

Unfulfilled dreams, a job loss. A lack of a promotion when I have worked so hard and have been so good for the company.

Loneliness, rejection.

What if I am told I have an inoperable tumor, that will lead to death?

What if you have a severely handicapped child that will never get any better?

You cannot think of anything that is out of the control of God! God has spoken it and He will bring it to pass. declaring the end from the beginning
