God's sovereignty is evident in creation as He commands the universe into existence and sustains it by His will (Psalm 33:9).
God's sovereignty is a key doctrine in Reformed theology, emphasizing His ultimate authority over all creation. In Genesis, we read how God spoke, and creation responded; this illustrates His omnipotence. Psalm 33:9 states, 'For He spake, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.' This asserts that everything exists and operates under God's command and purpose. Not only did God create the world, but He continues to sustain it according to His divine plan. The acknowledgment of God’s sovereignty brings comfort and hope, as all circumstances, even those that cause suffering, fall under His will and contribute to His overarching plan for the good of those who love Him.
