Andrew Marcus - Constant - The Overflow DevoSample

CONSTANT

God is sovereign

Something that we desire all the time in life is control. We want to be in control of everything around us. Once we lose control, we panic. The more we read the Bible and spend time with the Lord, the more we realize that even when we think we are in control we are absolutely not.

Every season You are Constant Lord
You are sovereign You are in control

God is sovereign over every situation and every circumstance in our lives. Not only situations, but He is sovereign over relationships and nature! It is amazing to read Jesus calming the storms in Matthew 8. Even the wind and the waves obey Him! This is comforting for us as we continue to journey through different seasons of life.

When peace is rushing in and like a river flows
I look to You again You are the anchor for my soul
On the mountain high Lord You reveal to me 

You’re always by my sid
You’re all that I will ever need

God is faithful in every season. On mountain tops or valley lows, God is in control and is working out His perfect plan for our lives. We need to recognize and remind ourselves daily that the Lord is in control of everything that surrounds us and everything within us. The fact that I can type this is because of God’s sovereign grace.

In every step in every breath
You are faithful You are faithful

What happens when we just don’t understand why things are happening in our lives? Deuteronomy 29:29 tells us that the Lord has two wills. A secret will and a revealed will. Sometimes we will never know why He does what He does. We need to stand on His promises and trust that He is faithful through it all.
