God's sovereignty remains intact even when humans sin, as He is able to override sinful actions to fulfill His divine purposes.
The relationship between God’s sovereignty and human sin is complex, yet clearly articulated in Scripture. Despite humanity's propensity to sin, God maintains ultimate control and can weave even our failures into His grand narrative of redemption. An example is seen in the story of Joseph, where his brothers' sinful acts of betrayal led to God’s providence in saving many lives (Genesis 50:20). While sin is wrong and has consequences, it does not thwart God's plans; rather, it often serves as a backdrop against which His grace and mercy shine more brightly. This should encourage believers to trust in God's ability to bring purpose from pain and to understand that our sins, while grievous, do not render God's plans impossible.
