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

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that God is sovereign and nothing comes to pass apart from His decree, including the actions of Satan.

God's sovereignty is a central theme throughout Scripture, affirming that He is in total control over all creation, including Satan. In the sermon, it is emphasized that Satan, referred to as 'God's devil,' operates only within the constraints of God's permission. For instance, in the story of Job, we see that the devil could not act against Job without God's consent, showcasing God's ultimate authority. This understanding is pivotal for Christians as it reassures them that God's purposes will not be thwarted, and even the evil actions of Satan serve God's sovereign ends.
