The Sovereignty of God: Part 8

God's Sovereignty at work in the Nativity story

TAKEAWAYS: 1.  Everything God does is with purpose.  2.  Even things that appear to be happenstance or chance, God may very well be in the background working out His plan.  3.  When we fail to recognize the hand of God in the circumstances of our lives, we may misunderstand the faithfulness of God.  4.  When we misunderstand the faithfulness of God, we will often assume things about God that aren't true.  5.  Only a God who loves us with an everlasting love would be willing to accomplish what is best for us.
