Arthur Pink wrote in The Sovereignty of God:
"The Sovereignty of God. What do we mean by this expression? We mean the supremacy of God, the kingship of God, the god-hood of God. To say that God is Sovereign is to declare that God is God. To say that God is Sovereign is to declare that He is the Most High, doing according to His will in the army of Heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth, so that none can stay His hand or say unto Him what doest Thou? (Daniel 4:35). To say that God is Sovereign is to declare that He is the Almighty, the Possessor of all power in Heaven and earth, so that none can defeat His counsels, thwart His purpose, or resist His will (Psalms 115:3). To say that God is Sovereign is to declare that He is "The Governor among the nations" (Psalms 22:28), setting up kingdoms, overthrowing empires, and determining the course of dynasties as pleaseth Him best. To say that God is Sovereign is to declare that He is the "Only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords" (1 Timothy 6:15). Such is the God of the Bible."
How Sovereign is your God? Have you fallen victim to the modern viewpoint that man is in control of his destiny? We need a return to believing like the Puritans, the Reformers and the early church that God was Sovereign. We can face today and tomorrow because we know who holds our today and tomorrows in His hand. Reject the false teaching that insists that man is "god" and return to the true faith. We need a true revival in America and it can only come from Him. Our part is to fast and cry out; it is part to send revival. Declare His Sovereignty today!
