How do we know God is sovereign over all things?

Psalm 145 communicates the profound truth of God's sovereignty, declaring, 'Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations' (Psalm 145:13). This portrayal assures believers that God is actively in control of all aspects of life, including both mundane events and significant occurrences, throughout history. His sovereignty over creation means that nothing happens outside of His divine purpose. As a result, even the painful realities of life serve His ultimate purposes of grace and glory.
