In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, bright light is shining forth now. Weeping may endure for the night, but joy comes when? In the morning. In other words, your morning has come. Do you receive that? God said to me that, \u201cBy now, you should understand that I Am Sovereign\u201d. So, expect to experience and understand <strong>The Sovereignty Of God<\/strong>. As the year draws to a close, understand that God is sovereign. The basics of faith is that God is sovereign. He does not consult us to do things.<\/p>\n<p>And when He does things, we cannot question Him. There are certain things that are outside of your jurisdiction. Do not break your head over them. Do not sweat it. Let God be God. Realize that God is God, and you are not. Don\u2019t you know that God has a mind of His own? Even toddlers have a mind of their own. It is as if they are waiting for you to tell them to do something, so that they can say, \u201cNo!\u201d It is as if they are using you to practice how to say, \u201cNo!\u201d So, I flip the script on my toddler. I say, \u201cYou are not going to eat this food.\u201d \u201cNo, I will eat it\u201d, he responds, and I laugh. If you had said, \u201cYou will eat this food\u201d, his response would have been, \u201cNo, I am not eating it\u201d. And it would be war. So, I say, \u201cYou are not eating this food\u201d, \u201cNo, I want this food\u201d, \u201cOkay, fine, have it then\u201d. God is God and we are not.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, we get it twisted, because of the principles of God. While the principles of God help us get the predictable. The sovereignty of God positions us for the unimaginable. The sovereignty of God positions us for the things that eyes have not seen, things that ears have not heard, and things that have not even entered into the heart of man. God said, \u201cJacob have I loved, Esau have I hated.\u201d People are still arguing about that today. Pastor, why did God love and prefer Jacob to Esau? I have an issue with that. You do? Do you know how many times people have come to me really fuming and upset? Did God not say He was the one who hardened Pharaoh\u2019s heart? How can He still destroy Pharoah? I say, \u201cWell, I am not God. Please ask Him when you see Him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prayer<\/strong>: Father, I declare in the Name of Jesus that because the sovereignty of God speaks for me, bright light has come into every area of my life, in Jesus Name.
