Sovereignty of God

Introduction

As a toddler, I always remembered going out with my Parents.

Whether going somewhere to eat or going shopping, I would be walking holding my mom or my dad’s hand.

But, every now and then, I would be walking and I would trip and fall.

And I would cry and the first thing my Mom would say is “Are you OK?” and she would pick me up.

I then would listen to the advice she gave to me to watch your step.

We were all children before and we were all told certain rules or guidelines by our Mother/Father that we follow today.

And that goes to show the major influence and authority our Parents have on our lives.

And that amount of Trust we have in those principles who are today.

Shouldn’t we have the same mindset with God.

Specifically, our Trust in the Sovereignty of God.

Exodus 15:22–27 ESV

Then Moses made Israel set out from the Red Sea, and they went into the wilderness of Shur. They went three days in the wilderness and found no water. When they came to Marah, they could not drink the water of Marah because it was bitter; therefore it was named Marah. And the people grumbled against Moses, saying, “What shall we drink?” And he cried to the Lord, and the Lord showed him a log, and he threw it into the water, and the water became sweet. There the Lord made for them a statute and a rule, and there he tested them, saying, “If you will diligently listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and do that which is right in his eyes, and give ear to his commandments and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you that I put on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord, your healer.” Then they came to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees, and they encamped there by the water.

They just came out of the Red Sea. After being the target of the Pharaoh and Egyptians, the people of Israel were filled with joy as they just came out of enslavement from them. And you see the people of Israel singing and dancing worshipping God saying “O LORD” or “The LORD will reign forever and ever.”

And ever and ever and ever.....
