Podcasts about sovereignty of god

A spiritual and saving knowledge of God is the greatest need of every human creature. The foundation of all true knowledge of God must be a clear understanding of His attributes as revealed in Holy Scripture. An unknown God cannot be truly trusted, served, nor worshipped. In this book, an effort has been made to describe some of the principal perfections of His divine character. And if we are to truly profit from our perusal of the pages herein, we need to earnestly ask God to bless them to us, to apply His Truth to our conscience and heart, so that, by it, our lives will be transformed. We need something more than a theoretical knowledge of God. God is only truly known in the soul inasmuch as we yield ourselves to Him, submit to His authority, and regulate all the details of our lives by His holy precepts and commandments. Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord (Hosea 6:3). If any man will do His will, he shall know (John 7:17). The people that do know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). About the Author Arthur Walkington Pink (1886-1952) was an influential British Christian evangelist and biblical scholar known for his profound writings and teachings on Reformed theology. Born in Nottingham, England, Pink converted to Christianity in his early twenties, and lived a life devoted to the Lord. His passion for Scripture led him to pastorates in the United States and Australia, though he is best remembered for his prolific writing. Pink's works, including The Sovereignty of God and numerous articles in his monthly magazine, Studies in the Scriptures, have had a lasting impact in the body of Christ.

Acts 8 is a pivotal moment in the advance of the gospel of Jesus Christ. The first reality it reveals is the sovereignty of God to bring his kingdom and do his will on earth as it is in heaven. Today we draw great encouragement from the account of the evangelism of the scattered church and the conversation of Samaritans to Christ because it leads us to trust in our purposeful and all powerful God. Grace Community Church exists to build spiritually healthy people for ministry in the world. One of the ways that we pursue this mission is by gathering each Sunday for corporate worship, prayer, and biblical teaching. The corporate nature of this gathering is both edifying to the believer and a witness of God's grace to the world. Sermon speaker is Scott Patty unless otherwise noted.

That's not fair! Virtually every parent has heard that complaint countless times from their children. But many adults, including Christians, say the same thing when confronted with the spiritual teachings on election, predestination, and salvation by God's free sovereign grace.

Who actually deserves credit for founding America? Your eighth-grade history class probably didn't give you the whole story. For the first Narrative episode of 2026, Mike and David sit down with author Cynthia Scott to answer this question with insights from her book, Celebrating God, Our Founder, at America’s 250th Birthday. Together, they explore: How early settlers prayed their way to America and governed themselves using biblical principles. Why pastors were once the primary thought leaders in American communities. How the First Great Awakening unified the colonies and laid the groundwork for independence. What national repentance could, and should, look like as we approach America’s semiquincentennial. Americans are once again talking about repentance, prayer, and God’s role in our history. This renewed conversation suggests that our Divine Founder hasn't given up on our nation yet because, as John Adams wrote, "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." More About Cynthia Scott Cynthia Scott has led prayer initiatives across Pittsburgh and beyond, including citywide gatherings, prayer for national events, and a daily prayer call for the nation. Passionate about honoring God and praying for revival in America, she has written numerous prayer guides. Celebrating God, Our Founder, at America’s 250th Birthday reflects her conviction that God’s providence shaped the United States and calls believers to honor Him as our true Founder and help to shape our future through prayer. Cynthia resides near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

In this special year-end episode, Pastor Karl and the Flipside Church staff share their personal “Five Good Minutes” reflections on what God taught them throughout 2025. Tricia Cheshier speaks on trusting God and saying yes, overcoming fear to step into full-time children's ministry and watching her entire family grow bolder in faith. Michael Rondon reflects on a year of change, learning to be available and say yes upfront—discovering how one reluctant yes to coaching soccer became an answer to a former student's family's prayers. Alli Stemple shares about choosing joy amid uncertainty and witnessing God's providential will as closed doors led to unexpected open ones. Jeff Stemple unpacks the importance of understanding God's assignment, realizing that divine favor rests on the task God gives rather than on the person. Heather Botwright vulnerably recounts a difficult year of family health crises, yet celebrates God's faithful presence through His people and the strengthening of family bonds.Pastor Karl closes with his own lessons: returning to the bedrock of Scripture, leaning into God's sovereignty and providence, and remembering that Jesus builds His church. The common thread running through every story—saying yes to God, trusting His plan, choosing joy, and faithfully doing the job He assigns—leaves listeners challenged to reflect on 2025 and step boldly into 2026.A heartfelt, honest look at real faith lived out in real life.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

This episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson takes a hard look at the growing contradictions surrounding Erika Kirk and the direction of TPUSA's AmFest (or should I say IsFest). From Charlie Kirk's own recorded warnings about bad cultural role models to TPUSA turning around and platforming those very same celebrities (Nicki Minaj included) whose lifestyles openly contradict Christian teaching, the hypocrisy is no longer ignorable.We're breaking down how moral inconsistency, pop-culture appeasement, and ideological confusion are rotting the conservative movement from the inside out. America First cannot exist without Christianity first—not as a buzzword, not as branding, but as the moral and cultural foundation of who we are. And right now, we are watching our spiritual and national identity slip away in real time.When so-called Christian leaders blur lines, excuse the very behavior they once condemned, and choose influence over truth, they don't just lose credibility, they lose the plot (and they lose the people who trusted them).This episode is a call for honesty, consistency, and real conservative leadership rooted in the Christian values they claim to stand for. Not clout, not platforms, and not sinful worldliness.We don't need people playing leaders.We need actual leadership.—https://www.bible.com/

There is a great deal of irony in Christmas. There is much simply in how so many spend it. It is a time of peace, but it is full of stress. A time to remember the humble birth of our savior, but we lavish each other with expensive gifts. But the real irony is in Jesus himself. God made flesh. Creator taking on that which he has created. The sovereign Lord making himself, in a fashion, dependent upon his own creation. Yet, for all this humility in the flesh, God is still there, mighty is sovereignty. But just how sovereign is he? Our text this morning helps to show us that our God is in full control of all things, both great and small. 1. God is sovereign over the evil 2. God is sovereign over the good 3. God is sovereign over all the rest

Worship led by Chris Lizotte

Sovereignty is who God is and what He does, while providence is God's intentional, personal involvement in the details of our lives. These two truths form the foundation for creative miracles.

THE PROVIDENCE AND SOVEREIGNTY OF GOD.Sovereignty is who God is and what He does, while providence is God's intentional, personal involvement in the details of our lives. These two truths form the foundation for creative miracles.Apostle showed us through scripture how before any need arises, God has already gone ahead to provide.Just like Abraham, while he climbed the mountain in obedience, the ram was already climbing too. (Genesis 22:13)In the will of God, we can never be stranded, because every instruction already carries its provision.Here are key points to note from the sermon:

Today Pastor Mike is riding solo discussing the beautiful sovereignty of God, and the disastrous sin of man. This should be something we desire to understand dive into as the meaning of life is wrapped up in the truth of this.

Shattering the 'God is in Control' Myth: Exploring Free Will and Divine SovereigntyIn this episode of Discovering Truth with Dan Duval, Dan explores the often-heard phrase “God is in control” and challenges its deeper implications regarding personal responsibility and human suffering.He argues that God does not control every event, highlighting instead the gift of free will granted to humans, angels, and even animals. Through real-life examples and key biblical references, Dan explains how the belief that God orchestrates every circumstance can foster a victim mindset and lead to flawed reasoning.He emphasizes the importance of taking personal responsibility and actively aligning our choices with God's will to manifest His kingdom on earth.

A new MP3 sermon from The Narrated Puritan is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: The Sovereignty of God in Salvation of Man Subtitle: God Exalted Man Humbled Speaker: Jonathan Edwards Broadcaster: The Narrated Puritan Event: Sunday Service Date: 11/17/2025 Bible: Romans 9:18 Length: 50 min.

Even though persons have sinned for a long time, have been obstinate, have committed monstrous sins a thousand times, even till they have grown old in sin; if they have sinned while under the clear preaching of the Word; if they have been backsliders, and have sinned after receiving numerous solemn warnings and strivings of the Spirit, and after receiving numerous mercies of God's common providence: though the danger of such is much greater than of other sinners, yet God can save them if He pleases, for the sake of Christ, without any prejudice to any of his attributes. He may have mercy on whom He will have mercy. He may have mercy on the greatest of sinners, if He pleases, and the glory of none of His attributes will dishonored in the least. Such is the sufficiency of the satisfaction and righteousness of Christ, that none of the divine attributes stand in the way of the salvation of any of them. Thus the glory of any attribute did not at all suffer by Christ's saving some of those that crucified Him.

A new MP3 sermon from The Narrated Puritan is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: The Sovereignty of God and Human Responsibility - 1 of 2 Subtitle: Sovereignty of God Speaker: A. W. Pink Broadcaster: The Narrated Puritan Event: Audiobook Date: 11/6/2025 Length: 30 min.

How can the sinner be held responsible for the doing of what he is unable to do? And how can he be justly condemned for not doing what he could not do? As a creature the natural man is responsible to love, obey, and serve God; as a sinner he is responsible to repent and believe the Gospel. But at the outset we are confronted with the fact that natural man is unable to love and serve God, and that the sinner, of himself,

One of the most flagrant sins of our age, is that of irreverence—the failure to ascribe the glory which is due to the august majesty of God. Men limit the power and activities of the Lord in their degrading concepts of His being and character. Originally, man was made in the image and likeness of God—but today we are asked to believe in a god who is made in the image and likeness of man! The Creator is reduced to the level of the creature! His omniscience is called into question, His omnipotency is no longer believed in, and His absolute sovereignty is flatly denied. Men claim to be the architects of their own fortunes and the determiners of their own destiny. They know not that their lives are at the disposal of the Divine Determiner. They know not they have no more power to thwart His secret decrees—than a worm has to resist the tread of an elephant!

In Isaiah 10, there's an axe of judgment wielded against a "godless nation." That axe is Assyria; the godless nation is Judah. Alex, Jim, and Sam discuss.

Pastor Chip StevensGenesis 49

God's sovereignty means nothing exists apart from His relationship, nothing happens outside His purposeful activity, and nothing can thwart His gracious design in Christ. The apostles in Acts 5 demonstrate how we can live fearlessly despite opposition because God's plans cannot be stopped, as proven by Christ's resurrection. We don't need to fear failure because when we align with God's will, ultimate victory is assured. We don't need to fear inadequacy because God uses ordinary people and His strength is made perfect in our weakness. We don't need to fear pain because opposition often confirms we're walking in obedience, and suffering for Christ's sake is an honor that makes us more like our Savior.

“All things are possible with God!” — in front the words give hope, and behind they give humility. They are the antidote to both despair and pride.

We are finite creatures serving an infinite God, so we must keep learning and growing. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the need for a spiritual understanding of God's movements in the earth. We heard from speakers including Pastor John Amanchukwu, Pastor Rob McCoy, Eric Metaxas, and others during the 2025 Culture & Christianity Conference, and Pastor Allen shares some takeaways from their messages. Holiness and courage must take precedence over our happiness and comfort, and we must renew and deepen our respect for the Lord. Christianity demands of us a willingness to sacrifice our lives—so will we say to the Lord, “I'll follow you”? 

Be freed from the burden of bearing your own load. Let God do that work. God loves to show his God-ness by working for us.

God does not need us. Instead, his infinite self-sufficiency spills over in love to us who need him.

If none of God's purposes can be frustrated, then he must be the happiest of all beings.

Confidence in God's absolute control is the source and power of radical obedience to the call of God.

If God is in control of everything, why is there so much pain and suffering in the world? Are we all just puppets with no real choices?
