20 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his: 21 And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding: 22 He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him (Daniel 2:20-22).
For God to be sovereign all things must be under His control. Control implies ability to choose and act. And so God exercises His sovereignty in the world around us. This began at the Creation and will continue throughout all eternity. God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. This is not to say that we will always understand God’s purposes and actions but rather to acknowledge that God is the reference point for all knowledge and understanding. When we do not understand, we are to turn to God, in faith.
