How do we know that God is sovereign in the judgments He pronounces?

Answered in 1 source

God's sovereignty in judgment is evident in His authority over nations and His ability to raise up and tear down leaders.

The sovereignty of God is manifested in His judgment throughout history, as seen in the Book of Amos. God raised up Amos to proclaim judgment not only upon Israel but also upon the surrounding nations, showing His ultimate authority over all. In Amos’ prophecies, we witness God's control over history and nations, explicitly stating that divine judgment is executed according to His perfect will. This sovereignty assures believers that God is in complete control of all things, including moral order, and that His judgments serve a purpose aligned with His righteousness and holiness, establishing the foundation for trust in His perfect justice.
