How do we know God is sovereign over death?

Answered in 2 sources

The sovereignty of God over death is affirmed in Scripture, demonstrating His ultimate control over life and the resurrection.

Scripture emphasizes God's sovereignty over death, asserting that He is the author of life and holds authority over the grave. Passages such as 1 Thessalonians 4 illustrate that Christ's resurrection assures believers of their own resurrection, as He conquered death. Furthermore, God’s sovereignty means that every death occurs under His divine providence, reinforcing that no death is untimely or outside His sovereign plan. This understanding provides believers with comfort and assurance, reminding them that God's control extends to all aspects of life, including death and the promise of eternal life.
