Why do we believe God is ultimately in control?

The sovereignty of God is a central tenet of Reformed theology, captured in truths found throughout the Bible. For example, in Ezekiel 36:37, God indicates, 'I will yet for this be inquired of by the house of Israel.' This reveals His control over the actions and responses of His people. The unchangeable nature of God's will assures us that nothing happens outside His divine authority or plan. This understanding instills confidence and hope, as we recognize that God's sovereignty is for the good of His elect (Romans 8:28) and that He is committed to fulfilling His promises.
