How do we know that God controls all things in our lives?
Answered in 1 source
God's sovereignty assures us that nothing happens without His decree and control.
The sermon clearly asserts that everything on earth, including life and death, falls under God's sovereign control. When peace is taken from the earth, it is God who allows such events to unfold, as illustrated in Revelation 6:4. Furthermore, the preacher encourages believers by reminding them that they are secure under God's protection; even amidst a world filled with violence and chaos, their spiritual lives are anchored in Christ. John 14:27 reinforces this as Christ provides believers with peace, not as the world gives, but as a solid foundation in His presence. Trusting in God's control yields comfort in both adversities and triumphs.
