Christ Sovereign Control
In our Wednesday evening service last night I ministered from the sixth chapter of the Revelation. The first eight verses speak about the four horsemen of the apocalypse. When we consider the events that will transpire in these last days it is very easy to get focused on those terrible events; antichrist, war, famine and death. Yet if we will look closely there is sovereign control of every event that happens. Notice it is the lamb that opens the seals Vs. 1,3,5,7. It says in verses four that the red horse rider was allowed to take peace from the earth; that means all the events of the revelation are under the control of the sovereign hand of God.
Psalm 11:3-4 (ESV)
3 if cthe foundations are destroyed,
what can the righteous do?”1
4 dThe Lord is in his holy temple;
the Lord’s ethrone is in heaven;
his eyes see, his eyelids ftest the children of man.
We must always remember the LORD is on His throne even during the difficult days of life. Let keep our focus in the right place, upon the author and finisher of our faith Jesus Christ; He is on the throne!
