[God] works out everything in
conformity with the purpose of his will.
—Ephesians 1:11
I Believe God is Sovereign
I believe God is all-powerful. “Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails” (Prv 19:21).
I believe that if I ever doubt the sovereignty of God, it will carry no weight, for he is not subject to my limited understanding.
I believe he has infinite knowledge, unlimited power, and operates on his clock and calendar, not mine.
“Oh, what a wonderful God we have! How great are his riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his methods! For who can know what the Lord is thinking? Who knows enough to be his counselor? . . . everything comes from him; everything exists by his power and is intended for his glory. To him be glory evermore. Amen” (Rom 11:33–36).
God is sovereign.
