Proclaim
this message from the Sovereign LORD....
Ezekiel 6:3
The word sovereign means lord, master or owner. A sovereign
ruler has authority that trumps the power of courts, parliaments or popular opinion. Our God is sovereign, but He always rules
with love.
Not so long ago, I was concerned about an upcoming decision
I had to make and I was pleading with Father God for direction. A still, small
voice whispered to my thoughts: "So, you want Me to tell you what I think
so that you can decide what you're going to do?"
Oops!If God's word, written in the Bible or spoken to our
hearts, is not the end of the discussion for us, then He is not sovereign. And
if He is not sovereign, He is not really Lord, is He?
Who would not want such a wonderful Sovereign?

Thank you, Sandy. I hoped this didn't sound harsh, but it was like a wake-up call for me.
