Lesson 3

God’s Sovereignty God is the Supreme Ruler: He rules over all No man, angel, or circumstance can thwart God’s plan Nothing can prevent His plan from being successful

Cross References Daniel 4:34-35 Nebuchadnezzar lost his mind. His reason returned to him and he declared that God is the Most High and does according to His will in heaven AND on earth. Isaiah 14:24,27 The Lord’s plans will stand No one can frustrate His plans

Cross References Job 1:6-2:6 God is sovereign over Satan. Satan is only able to do what God allows him to do Luke 22:31 Satan cannot act without God’s permission Satan is NOT omnipresent, omniscient, or omnipotent Romans 8:29 The justified will be conformed into Jesus’ image, so it will happen; that’s His plan Nothing can separate us from His love, not even Satan

Cross References Isaiah 46:9-11 There is no one like God He declares the end from the beginning His purpose will be established He is sovereign over time and the events in history Daniel 4:17 God is ruler over the realm of mankind God gives rule to whomever He wishes God sets rulers up and brings them down Daniel 2:20-23 God is sovereign over time and ages He is the Giver of knowledge and wisdom. Light dwells with Him. He knows what is in the darkness.

Who/what else does He rule over? Isaiah 5:1-7 God rules over Israel. He controls rain Deut. 32:39 He controls life and death, He wounds and He heals. No one can deliver out of His hand. I Sam. 2:6-8 He makes rich and poor. He brings low and He exalts The pillars of the earth are His He is creator of all things

Who/what else does He rule over 2 Samuel 16:5-11 Kind David didn’t avenge himself against the man cursing him.(who was later proven wrong) He didn’t want to go against what the Lord might be doing. Isaiah 45:6-7 He forms light and creates darkness He creates well-being and calamity Remember: God’s character never changes. He is all His attributes, all the time. John 19:10-11; Matthew 18:7 Pilate had no authority over Jesus except what God the Father gave him. Judas has the greater sin. (rejecting Messiah)

Joseph Genesis 37; 39-45; 50:15-21 Sold into slavery by his brothers who hated him Became 2 nd in charge in Egypt Demonstrated wisdom God sent him before his brothers to preserve life. God’s divine plan was carried out through their evil. Joseph KNEW God was in control. What they meant for evil, God meant for good.

God’s Sovereignty and Trials Romans 8:28-29 God causes all things to work for good to those who love Him. I Cor. 10:13 God will not allow believers to be tempted beyond what they are able to bear. James 1:2-4 Trials are a test of a believer’s faith I Thess. 5:18 Trials are designed to produce endurance and endurance has results – it perfects and completes the believer. Eph. 1:11 God works all things according to His will Even believers are predestined according to His purpose.
