What does the Bible say about God's sovereignty in government?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that God is sovereign over all nations and authorities, using them for His purposes.

Scripture clearly illustrates that God is sovereign over the affairs of men, including governments. In Psalm 75:4-7, it states that promotion and demotion come not from human hands but from God alone. This is further emphasized in Acts 4:26-28, which highlights how earthly rulers unknowingly act according to God’s predetermined plan. Consequently, whether a good or evil leader rises, they fulfill God’s purpose within His sovereign decree. Thus, believers are called to recognize that God's hand is always at work, even in matters of politics and governance, ensuring that His will prevails.
