Who's in Control?

In this turbulent and often gut-wrenching world we live in, the truth that God has the whole world in his hands is quite a comfort and strength! To know that our God is on his throne, ruling over all from heaven, certainly helps us to cope with the often painful realities of life. Consider the following quote from theologian Bruce Ware:

"The sole criterion for understanding the nature of divine sovereignty is simply this: whatever God tells us in Scripture about his lordship and sovereign rulership over the universe is what we should believe, because this alone can be the infallible truth about his sovereignty…. From the beginning of the Bible to the end (quite literally), readers are constantly encouraged, in account after account, to think of God as in control of what takes place in this world."

Nothing catches God by surprise. Nothing can derail his plan. Nothing! (Daniel 4:35; Ephesians 1:11).
