All hang dependent on His powerful providence!

"He holds all creation together." Col. 1:17"
He sustains the universe by the mighty power of His command!" Hebrews 1:3
Jesus Christ upholds, preserves, and governs the worlds which He has made! Thus all creatures, from the smallest insect which is seen by the microscope; up to the archangel which worships before the eternal throne; all events, from the falling of a hair of the head to the destruction of nations by famine, pestilence, and war; all rule and authority, from that of a petty official, to that of thrones and principalities in heaven; the material universe, from the least particle which floats in the sunbeam to the grandest system of worlds which roll in immensity--all hang dependent on His powerful providence! And if one link in the chain of that dependence were broken, they would all rush headlong to destruction!

It's called THE SOVEREIGNTY OF GOD the most recent Word Pictures Series....and to quote from it......."It's not that we don't understand these truths about God's Sovereignty, it's that we don't accept them !"

AND I don't think we will understand the awesome and mighty power our Savior has, We don't even see a glimps of how omnipotent and majestic He is, He conquered the world , He conquered Saton, and He conquered our sin.
