What does the Bible say about God's sovereignty over events?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that God rules and overrules all things for His glory and the good of His people.

God's sovereignty is a core teaching derived from Scripture, specifically illustrated in Romans 8:28-30 and Ephesians 1:11. These passages affirm that everything works together for good for those who love God and that God's purposes are determined by His counsel. At Calvary, we see this sovereignty vividly displayed as all parties involved in the crucifixion acted according to their will, yet God overruled their intentions for the ultimate good of His elect. This profound truth indicates that through all events, whether seemingly chaotic or ordered, God is at work fulfilling His divine plan, ensuring that all things contribute to His glory and the salvation of His chosen people.
