Saturday, February 18: Jeremiah 46- .

I never cease to be amazed that God (the God of the Scriptures, the Holy Bible) declares and exercises authority over all nations. God does this regardless of whether or not they recognize and worship Him as God.

In the ancient Middle East each country had its patron god. When a country won in battle it was often attributed to the strength of their god. But to have your god declare sovereignty over other nations and every other nation… that was unheard of outside of the claims Yahweh –the Lord- makes here and elsewhere in the Scriptures.

Our God is sovereign… make no mistake about this. If He is not sovereign overall, then why listen to and believe the scriptures at all?!

Think about this… its ripples impact every area of life and living.

Oh, Lord God, I bow to You, and honor You as Lord of All; supreme and majestic in Who You are and all You do. Alleluia. Amen.
