Sovereignty

Psm 78:41-42; Titus1:1-3,16; Romans 7; 1 John 4:19; Prov 3:9-10

Sin is denial of God's Sovereignty. That statement appeared in my devotional today. So let's think a minute. Sovereignty means power, all power, supreme power. Denial means not to accept or believe in that sovereignty. When we sin we are saying "God we do not accept your supreme power, your supreme position as God?" But... the moment we a accepted the forgiveness and life of Christ (God) into our lives we bowed before Him and acknowledged Him as Lord. Correct?

My biggest question before accepting Christ as Lord and savior was not His Sovereignty. The stumbling block question of "is there a God" plagued me. Logic told me that God, if he existed, required worship, respect, submission and honor as the supreme power. Since my step dad, an atheist, continued firm on his conviction, my question remained. Obviously, I answered the question and today I seek to lead others into an intimate relationship with Christ that can connect them to His heart, His voice, His freedom and His love; a love that sets captives free and delivers us all from anything this life can throw our direction.

God is so kind, so patient, so in love with us that he forgives our sins , mistakes, and waits through the unwise decisions because of what Christ has already done for us. My goal today is to point a light on the actions of or heart. Is God sovereign to day in your life and mine? Have we given him the honor and respect He deserves?
