Good morning,
The topic of God is unfathomable. No one is greater than God. There is no entity that compares with God. The reason why is God created everything and controls all aspects of His creation.
We will see in today’s devotional that Scripture backs this up.
If we could but grasp this in the depth of our being!
(John Newton)
“The LORD does whatever pleases Him–in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and all their depths. He makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth; He sends lightning with the rain and brings out the wind from His storehouses.” Psalm 135:6-7
God’s sovereignty is but another name for the unlimited exercise of wisdom and goodness and power. Nothing can hinder Him.
Every drop of rain hits its appointed target–and every particle of dust is carried by the wind to its appointed resting place.
If we could but grasp this in the depth of our being, our souls would be liberated to depend fully on God’s governance over our lives, and to learn to count trials, all joy!
“Our God is in heaven–He does whatever pleases Him.” Psalm 115:3
“All the peoples of the earth are regarded as nothing. He does as He pleases with the powers of heaven and the peoples of the earth. No one can hold back His hand or say to Him: What have you done?” Daniel 4:35
