Faith in God’s sovereignty is what is going to provide us hope when things seem hopeless, security when we are fearful, encouragement when we are discouraged. Faith in the Sovereignty of God really is the hinge pin of the Christian faith. Because if we don’t have faith in God’s sovereignty, we will place our faith in ourselves, which can only lead one of two directions, to pride because of what we feel we have accomplished or despair because of what we know we can’t.
