Key #2 - The Principle of Sovereignty

God’s very nature is to heal, protect, deliver, and provide. James 1:17 in the Amplified Bible says: “Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above; it comes down from the Father of lights [the Creator and Sustainer of the heavens], in whom there is no variation [no rising or setting] or shadow cast by His turning [for He is perfect and never changes].”

He is a good Father, and He is consistent. He doesn’t choose to bless one child and not the other. He isn’t going to say ‘yes’ to you one day, and then ‘no’ to you the next. All His promises are yes and amen. (See 2 Corinthians 1:20)

We never have to doubt His will for our lives. He wants us to prosper and be in good health. Always. We can be one hundred percent assured of His will in every situation.

The sovereignty of God is not displayed in the way He controls the outcome, but in the principles He set in motion to govern our world. Those principles (or forces) cannot be tampered with. They are incorruptible and unstoppable.

These forces are displayed in the story of Creation.

Where there is chaos, wherever things are out of order, you have a breeding ground for the miraculous. Genesis 1:2 (NIV) describes the earth as ‘formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep’. It is exactly there where we found the first force in operation ‘…and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.’

The second force was released when God Himself spoke the Word.

And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. (Genesis 1:3, NIV)

When Mary asked Gabriel, “How could this be?” he answered saying the Spirit of God would come upon her and He would overshadow her. (See Luke 1:35). Mary encountered both these forces, the Spirit, and the Word, and the Word became flesh within her.

Dear friend, where are you experiencing chaos right now? I want to remind you today that you have the Spirit of God living inside you (Romans 8:11). You have access to every promise in His Word. These forces are incorruptible and unstoppable. God is sovereign in the principles He has established to govern the earth.

Receive His Word, receive His Spirit, and see Salvation come through you.

Let's Pray:

Heavenly Father,

We worship you in Spirit and Truth. We invite your presence into every area where we are experiencing chaos. We declare: Let there be light! We thank you for your word of Truth. We will not doubt your heart towards us. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

In Jesus Name

Amen
