GOD IS IN CONTROL!

 

Mankind fell through a desire to cast off God’s control. Satan’s great enticement was that we would “be as gods knowing both good and evil” and, therefore gain control. Man quickly learned that God retained control and still maintains it today.

 

1. HE’S IN CONTROL OF NATURE’S LAWS!

 

Jer 5:22

22 Fear ye not me? saith the LORD: will ye not tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?

 

2. HE’S IN CONTROL OF MY ADVANCEMENT!

 

Ps 75:6-7

6 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. 7 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.

 

3. HE’S IN CONTROL OF GOVERNMENTS!

 

Dan 2:21

21 And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:

 

Matt 24:6

6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

 

4. HE’S IN CONTROL OF MY PERSONAL SAFETY & MY FUTURE!

 

Rom 8:31

31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

 

Matt 10:29-31

29 Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.

30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

31 Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.

 

Heb 13:6

The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.

 

Dear Lord, today I rest in the knowledge that you are, as always, in control. AMEN
