The Bible affirms that God rules over everything, which assures us that nothing happens by chance in our lives.
The sovereignty of God is a core tenet of Reformed theology, asserting that He governs all events and outcomes in the universe. Romans 8:28 encapsulates this by promising that all things work together for good for those who love God and are called according to His purpose. This verse indicates that even our trials and tribulations serve a divine purpose orchestrated by God. Furthermore, passages throughout scripture reveal God's intimate involvement in creation, such as Matthew 10:30, which states that God knows the count of every hair on our heads. Such detailed knowledge and control exemplify His sovereignty and provide believers with the peace that comes from knowing that their lives are under divine guidance.
