Who Is In Charge?

Scripture

Acts 12

23 Immediately, because Herod did not give praise to God, an angel of the Lord struck him down, and he was eaten by worms and died.
24 But the word of God continued to spread and flourish.

Observation

With all the unrest and turmoil that is happening around the world and even in our own country I think sometimes we need to stop and think about who is really in charge. It may seem like things are out of control, but they are not out of His control. God is Sovereign. He is on His throne. He is still in control. Herod thought that he was god. God reminded Herod and everyone else around him that Herod was only a man.

I like verse 24, “But the word of God continued to spread and flourish.” It shows me that no matter what kind of turmoil happens in our world or our country or even at our house the word of God will continue to spread and flourish.
God is Sovereign! He is on His Throne. His plans will happen. His promises will all come to pass.

Application

I will serve the Lord today knowing that He is in control.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, You are the Mighty King. You are in control. May Your word continue to spread and flourish.
