How do we know that God's sovereignty includes the events in our lives?
Answered in 1 source
God's sovereignty encompasses all events, both great and small, as shown through His providence in Scripture.
God's sovereignty is central to the Reformed understanding of His providence, meaning that He orchestrates everything according to His divine will. The preacher asserts that God's rule encompasses all aspects of life, from significant events to seemingly insignificant occurrences. Each event is part of God's predestined plan, aimed at bringing fulfillment to His purpose and glory. This is affirmed in many Scripture passages that speak of God's omnipotence and providence, assuring us that nothing happens outside His control. His providential care reassures believers that every aspect of their lives is under His sovereign hand, fostering trust in His perfect wisdom.
