Genesis Demonstrates God as Sovereign. What is Sovereignty? Supreme power? Yes. Freedom from external control? Yes. But, it is fundamentally the supremacy of God, the kingship of God, the godhood of God.

The reason people do not like the Soverienty of God is because Sovereignty is scary. As He is God, all things are his own, and he has a right to dispose of them according to his own pleasure. All things in this lower world are his. THat makes this doctrine rather difficult to settle in. And yet, God expects His people to reflect on His sovereignty daily.

Enlightening!

I'm reading Jerry Bridges book Trusting God, and have made a focus on God's sovereignty a recurring theme of my studies as of late.

I'm not feeling well, my head is stuffy, and I'm tired, fatigued, and this was my service today... I needed to hear this.

Thanks Dr. McMahon
