Talk 2 - God is sovereign - Giles Hickling by The Church of God in Manchester

Have you ever wondered, If God is in control, why does life feel so out of control? In this meditation, we’ll explore the comforting truth of God’s sovereignty through Isaiah 46:9-11. This passage was spoken to God's people during a time of exile and uncertainty. Just as it reassured them, it reminds us today: even when life feels chaotic, God is still in control. His plans always prevail. As you listen, you’ll be guided to reflect on God’s sovereignty over all things and remember how He has worked in your life before. We’ll also explore how He’s inviting you to trust His good plans today. Whether you’re waiting for God’s plans to unfold or simply need a reminder that He is still in control, this meditation will help you pause, reflect, and rest in the truth: God’s good and sovereign plan will come to pass.

Some of the most important questions of existence are, “Who is God?,” and, “What is He like? What is His relationship towards humanity?” Thoughts of God are the highest our minds could comprehend, the highest subject of our conversations, the most important, driving force behind how we live our lives. And specifically, the question every young adult in Central Arkansas is asking themselves right now is, “If the God of the Bible is the One True God, why should that matter for my life?” So, in this series, we're seeking to experience a closer personal relationship with God because we better understand what He's really like; His nature, character, attributes, and bent towards us. In this message, we're addressing the attribute of God that probably sparks more questions than any other: His sovereignty. We hope you're encouraged by this podcast! If you have questions about our church or what it means to follow Jesus, we'd love to hear from you! Check out our Instagram @fellowshipya, website www.fellowshipar.com/young-adults, or send us at email at youngadults@fellowshipar.com.Young Adults | Fellowship Bible ChurchA post on Fellowship Bible Church provided by: https://www.fellowshipar.com

Acts 3 and 4

What does it mean that God is immutable? What does it mean that God does not change? What does it mean that God is sovereign? What does it mean God is entirely in control of everything?

Part of the A Vision for 2025 sermon seriesThis sermon was preached by David Shaw and is 43 minutes long.

Wednesday Series

Jesus is brought to you by the sovereign will of God. Without the sovereignty of God, there is no baby in a manger. Christmas means that God has used His sovereign power to enter into human suffering to remove it.

No matter where life takes us, God is in control. He is sovereign, and His Word promises that “in all things, God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28). In today's devotional, Dr. Michael Youssef encourages us with the Truth of God's sovereignty and love.If you would like more insight into today's devotional topic, listen to Dr. Michael Youssef's sermon A Match Made in Heaven, Part 2: LISTEN NOW | WATCH NOWIf you enjoy listening to the MY Devotional podcast, would you consider partnering with us to proclaim the hope of Christ to a world in darkness by giving a year-end gift?

“I know that you can do anything, and no one can stop you.” (Job 42:2 NLT) Sovereignty is a tough concept to wrap our heads around, especially in today's highly influenceable culture. Everyone answers to someone. Public figures change their stances based on the feedback they get. Politicians are swayed by donors. Corporations react to boycotts. In contrast to the famous sign on Harry Truman's desk, the buck doesn't seem to stop anywhere. There is no ultimate authority, no sovereignty. Except with God. Job scratched the surface of God's sovereignty when he said to God, “I know that you can do anything, and no one can stop you” (Job 42:2 NLT). In fact, God will do what He pleases with whomever He chooses whenever He wishes. That's absolute power. God answers to no one. He is not swayed by public opinion or conventional wisdom. He doesn't have to ask anyone's permission or worry about anyone's reaction. He doesn't seek approval, likes, or popularity. God can't be second-guessed because everything He does is perfect. His ways are right—always and without fail. Psalm 115:3 says, “Our God is in the heavens, and he does as he wishes” (nlt). Some people challenge His sovereignty by asking, “What about the bad things that happen in life? Are they part of what He wishes?” And the answer is yes. Evil, suffering, and tragedy aren't arguments against a sovereign God. They are all firmly under His control. Whatever happens in this life, good or bad, is either caused by God or allowed by God. I know that's hard for some of us to digest. But that's because we're limited in our present circumstances. Someday, we will better understand the wisdom and purpose of God's plan. In the meantime, we take the word of the psalmist who wrote this about God: “Your faithfulness extends to every generation, as enduring as the earth you created. Your regulations remain true to this day, for everything serves your plans” (Psalm 119:90–91 NLT). Everything serves God's plans. The apostle Paul wrote, “And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them” (Romans 8:28 NLT). Everything is part of God's good plan. In Paul's words, we find the most amazing truth about God's sovereignty. The English historian Lord Acton wrote that absolute power corrupts absolutely. But he was referring to human authorities, none of whom ever possessed “absolute power.” The amazing truth is that God, who does possess absolute power, uses His power to accomplish genuinely good things in the lives of His people. God's sovereignty can't be separated from His love. That means we can trust Him to care for us. We may not always understand what that care looks like or why certain things happen, but we can be confident that God will work all things for our good. No one and nothing can thwart His will. We can rest assured in His sovereignty. — Listen to the Greg Laurie Podcast Become a Harvest PartnerSupport the show: https://harvest.org/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Psalm 33:6-11

Click HERE to Listen!  In this episode, we tackle a tough but crucial question: Is God fair? As we continue through Romans 9:14-33, Paul addresses the sovereignty of God in His decisions, asking whether God's choices are just. We'll explore the idea of God's mercy and how it's extended according to His will, not human effort. From Pharaoh to the potter and the clay, Paul uses powerful illustrations to remind us that God's ways are beyond our understanding. Join us for Part 1 of this discussion as we begin to unpack the tension between God's justice and mercy and how we can trust Him in His sovereignty. 3 Key Takeaways: God's Mercy is His to Give: God chooses to show mercy according to His will, reminding us that His grace is a gift, not something we can earn or demand. God's Right to Choose: Like a potter shaping clay, God has the right to do as He pleases with His creation—choosing some for noble purposes and others for different roles. Trusting in God's Justice: Though we may not always understand God's choices, we are called to trust that He is always just, working out His perfect plan for salvation.

Click HERE to Listen!  In Part 2 of our discussion on Romans 9:14-33, we continue to dive into the challenging question: Is God fair? Paul reminds us that God, in His sovereignty, extends mercy and hardens hearts according to His divine purpose. We'll unpack the difficult truths about God's authority to do as He wills, while also considering how His choices always serve a greater plan for redemption. Join us as we explore how God's sovereignty and fairness coexist, and how His plans are ultimately driven by love and justice, even when they're hard for us to understand. 3 Key Takeaways: God's Patience with Humanity: God shows incredible patience toward those who oppose Him, giving opportunities for repentance while still fulfilling His sovereign plan. The Mystery of God's Justice: While we may struggle to reconcile God's justice with human understanding, we are reminded that His ways are higher and perfectly just. God's Greater Purpose: Ultimately, God's decisions, whether in showing mercy or judgment, are all part of His plan to bring about salvation and reveal His glory to the world. Connect with us on Instagram at @boldfaithchurch for more insights, community discussions, and encouragement as we seek to understand God's perfect justice and sovereignty!

Some believers find the fact of God's sovereignty to be confusing, but we should all find it be comforting! If God wasn't in complete control, we'd really be in trouble! Join me now in Romans Ch. 9, as we talk about God's wonderful sovereignty.

Tonight, I want to go through Matthew 24 and discuss how we can keep our world small and not become distracted by things that aren't up for us to fully understand.

Sermon by Preaching Elder Billy Dalton 

Ask Paul Tripp is a semi-weekly podcast resource from Paul Tripp Ministries. Each week, pastor and best-selling author Dr. Paul David Tripp answers your questions about anything and everything, connecting the transforming power of Jesus Christ to everyday life in the process. In this episode, Paul answers this question we received: “We've been praying for our child to get into a specific school, but if God is sovereign and this choice has already been made, what's the point of prayer? If we don't pray, does it impact the decision?"If you have a question you'd like to ask Paul, you can email ask@paultripp.com or submit it online at PaulTripp.com/Ask.The Transforming Power of Prayer:PaulTripp.com/Prayer

Why does God allow bad governments to exist? If God is really in control of everything, why does He permit evil and corrupt leaders into power? Does this mean God is not totally sovereign?

[audio mp3="https://www.crossbridgeofocean.org/wp-content/uploads/sermons/2024/08/2024_08_18.mp3"][/audio] In this passage, Paul is so burdened about the salvation of the Jews and the welfare of Israel that he feels it necessary to remind the believers about God's sovereignty. Paul addresses two concerns: the Word of God and God's sovereignty.

In Today's Secular Uncertainties, God is Sovereign; and God “the Most High rules the kingdom of men and gives it to whom he {God} will” MESSAGE SUMMARY: Political discord and health care uncertainties surround us in all directions today. Without Jesus in our lives, we have reasons to be anxious and fearful. However, Jesus tells us in Matthew 6:31: “Therefore, do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself.”. The future years may hurt our pride, wallets, and/or our freedom. On the other hand, we should not let the current secular political environment and culture hinder our resolve to continue in our fearless faith in the truth; our constant hope in the future; and our radical love for our neighbors. God has a plan; and, regardless of how things look from our eyes, we must remain faithful to His purpose. Now is the time to draw near to Jesus and to advance His Kingdom. Our gaze must remain on Jesus if we want to walk on the water during the storm. God is the King of Kings and the Sovereign God of the Universe. As Daniel interpreted King Nebuchadnezzar's dream in Daniel 4:17 when God told Nebuchadnezzar: “to the end that the living may know that the Most High {God} rules the kingdom of men and gives it to whom he {God} will and sets over it the lowliest of men.”. God is always involved in our lives, and He gives the government offices “to whom he will”, even if the political processes produce “the lowliest of men {or women}”. Sometimes, we receive the elected officials we need, and sometimes we receive the elected officials that we deserve; but God is always Sovereign and faithful.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Father, I confess that when difficulties and trials come into my life, large or small, I mostly grumble and complain. I realize the trials James talks about are not necessarily “walls,” but they are difficult to bear, nonetheless. Fill me with such a vision of a transformed life, O God, that I might actually consider it “pure joy” when you bring trials my way. I believe, Lord. Help my unbelief. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 94). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that, because I am in Jesus Christ, I will think like Jesus (Philippians 2:5f). “I can do everything through Him who gives me strength.”. (Philippians 4:14).
