Scripture: Psalm 115:3, "But our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases." (NASB)
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
As we gather today on this beautiful October day, let us be reminded of the great truth that our God is sovereign over all things. Psalm 115:3 declares, "But our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases." This verse is a powerful reminder that God is not only powerful but also intimately involved in every aspect of our lives.
As we go about our daily routines, it can be easy to forget that God is in control. We may face challenges and trials that seem insurmountable, but we must remember that our God is greater than any obstacle we may face. He is the one who created the heavens and the earth, and He is the one who holds everything in His hands.
So, as we go about our day today, let us be mindful of the sovereignty of God. Let us trust in His goodness and His wisdom, knowing that He is working all things together for our good and His glory. Let us seek His will in all that we do, and let us submit ourselves to His authority.
May we have the faith of Abraham, who trusted in God even when he did not understand His ways. May we have the courage of David, who faced Goliath with the knowledge that God was with him. And may we have the humility of Mary, who said, "Behold, the bondslave of the Lord; be it done to me according to your word."
Let us pray:
Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your sovereignty over all things. We acknowledge that You are in control, and we trust in Your goodness and Your wisdom. Help us to seek Your will in all that we do, and give us the faith to trust in You even when we do not understand Your ways. May we live our lives in humble submission to Your authority, knowing that You are working all things together for our good and Your glory. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
