08/13/2025 – God is Always in Control
Scripture: Habakkuk 1: 6 For indeed I am raising up the Chaldeans, A bitter and hasty nation Which marches through the breadth of the earth, To possess dwelling places that are not theirs. 7 They are terrible and dreadful; Their judgment and their dignity proceed from themselves
Reflection: God’s hidden power is in His sovereignty. People think their power is their own… but even when empires rise and conquer it is only because God allows it. He says: I am raising up the Chaldeans. They thought they were so smart, so strong; but they failed to understand that they were only instruments of judgment in the hands of the only one who has power!
His power is sovereign over ALL. We think there are people and entities that can operate outside the power of God. We are wrong! The disciples were amazed time and again by the hidden power of God. They had seen His power over sickness of every kind; but He kept pushing the limits of their faith beyond their comprehension. Every time they thought they knew the power of God, they were surprised by a new manifestation of the sovereignty of God.
