The Sovereignty of God (part 2)

Many people believe God is generally in charge, but wrestle with what that means when life feels uncertain, painful, or out of control. In this message, Pastor Doug Link explores the full scope of God’s sovereignty — from nature and nations to everyday choices and suffering — showing that God’s absolute reign is the very foundation for gratitude in good times, patience in hardship, and unshakeable security in an unknown future.

The Omnipotence and Sovereignty of God

God’s omnipotence and sovereignty show that nothing is too hard for God and nothing can frustrate God’s purposes in heaven and on earth. Pastor Doug Link explains how God’s power and authority fit together, and why God’s perfect character means God cannot lie, change, or act against what is true and good.

Omniscience

God’s omniscience means God knows all things with infinite, eternal, and unchanging knowledge that belongs to the Creator alone. Pastor Doug Link explains that God’s knowledge is infinite, immutable, independent, innate, and infallible, and he contrasts major views of divine foreknowledge while urging comfort and assurance.

Omnipresence

God’s omnipresence means God is truly present everywhere, without having physical size or spatial limits, and no one can flee from God’s presence. Pastor Doug Link emphasized that God’s omnipresence is inseparable from God’s infinity, immutability, eternity, and omnipotence and omniscience, urging believers to be comforted by God’s nearness and motivated to live with integrity before God.
