THE SOVEREIGNTY OF GOD
This truth and attribute is unquestionably one of the most exhilarating, liberating, comforting and thrilling attributes of God there is. The concept of sovereignty means that God is King, Boss, Lord and Ruler over all people and things. It is His universe. He created it and He controls it. His sovereignty transcends space and time and leaves nothing outside its scope and authority. A proper understanding of this doctrine will cause you to change your worldview, your understanding of history and all the circumstances in our lives!
“There is not a square inch in the whole domain of human existence over which Christ, who is Sovereign over all, does not cry: Mine.” Abraham Kuyper
Jonathan Edwards said this, “God’s sovereignty has ever appeared to me a great part of His glory. It has often been my delight to approach God and adore Him as a Sovereign God.”
Sovereignty = His right to rule, govern and preside over all things.
His sovereignty communicates His power over His enemies.
His sovereignty establishes His power over all circumstances.
His sovereignty is not limited to past or future events; it permeates our present reality.
His sovereignty is cosmic in scope.
Take a minute and read Ephesians 1:11 and 3:20-21.
Read Psalm 33:6-11
Read Psalm 115:3
Read Daniel 4:35
Read Romans 8:27
If God is not sovereign, then who or what is?
“You are my Sovereign Lord”
