How do we know that God is sovereign over historical events?

Answered in 1 source

God's sovereignty over history is evident in the fulfillment of His everlasting covenant, as seen in the precise orchestration of events throughout scripture.

The doctrine of God's sovereignty over historical events is affirmed by the biblical narrative that reveals His ultimate authority in orchestrating all matters for the purpose of His everlasting covenant. As conveyed in the sermon, everything that occurs—past, present, or future—falls under God's sovereign decree and is related to His redemptive plan. Historical events, including tragedies and triumphs, serve as integral pieces in the grand design that brings about the fulfillment of God's covenant with His people. From the life of David to the birth and death of Christ, each moment was predetermined by God, illustrating that His purposes cannot be thwarted. This assurance provides believers with a foundation of trust in God's governance, knowing that every event serves the greater good of His eternal plan.
