ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE FOR 12TH MAY 2024.
God is supreme – in sovereignty, power and works. There is no other like Him in heaven and on earth. The writer of Psalm 97 describes the sovereignty of God as being enthroned over all things. Some of his description are as follows: He ensures justice for those deprived (v.2b); He reigns in victory over his enemies (v.3); He lightens the troubles of His people (v.4); mountains of afflictions melt at his presence (v.5); He reveals his glory to his people (v.6); He covers idol worshipers with shame (v.7); His judgment brings rejoicing to his people (v.8); He delivers his people from the hands of the wicked (v.10b). Above all, it is necessary and important to give thanks each time His name is mentioned, because He reigns.
The sovereignty of God as declared by the writer of this Psalm and in many other parts of the Bible is to encourage and strengthen our faith in God. No matter the negative the situations we find ourselves in, we should rely on His sovereign authority. He exercises supreme reign over our troubles and we must remember that nothing rises above the control of God. We are encouraged to accept Him as Lord over all situations, love Him with all our hearts and hate evil. You can cast your care upon Him because He cares for you (1 Pet.5: 7).
PRAYER:
Accept and trust in the sovereignty of God, and be free of anxiety.
