Summary
God's sovereignty—His supreme authority and control over all things—is the center of the universe, not self. Through Psalm 135 and Romans 8, the sermon establishes that God controls the spiritual realm, nature, nations, salvation, and the future, inviting listeners to surrender self-centeredness and find confidence in His unbreakable grip on their lives and eternal destiny.
Highlights
God loves you, but you are not the point of the universe. God is. The life that you were created to live is not a life obsessed with yourself. It's a life obsessed with God.
If you have a God that you can explain absolutely everything about how he acts, then you certainly have never met the God of the Bible because if he's small enough for you to completely comprehend, he's not big enough to be who he says he is.
God has a white knuckle grip on you and there's nothing in the universe that can break that hold. Don't hold onto your life with a white knuckle grip; let God hold onto you.
