We must think about two things: the attribute of sovereignty ("What is it?") and the practical application of this doctrine ("How does it affect the way we live?").

Arthur Pink says, "Being infinitely elevated above the highest creature, God is the most high. Lord of heaven and earth subject to none, influenced by none, absolutely independent. God does as He pleases, only as He pleases, always as He pleases. None can thwart Him. None can hinder Him. God is unrivaled in majesty, unlimited in power, and unaffected by anything outside of Himself."

This is a picture of God's sovereignty.

So I want us to think about two things quickly. I want us to think about the attribute of sovereignty. What is it? And then I want us to think of a practical application for us. How does it affect the way we live?

So for the attribute of sovereignty, I want to read you a quote by Arthur Pink. He says this, being infinitely elevated above the highest creature, God is the most high, Lord of heaven and earth, subject to none, influenced by none, absolutely independent. God does as he pleases, only as he pleases, always as he pleases. None can thwart him. None can hinder him.

God is unrivaled in majesty, unlimited, empower, and unaffected by anything outside of Himself. So that's the picture of God's sovereignty in a nutshell.
