Daily Devotion:
"The Lord Reigns"
1 Chronicles 16:31
New Living Translation
31 Let the heavens be glad, and the earth rejoice! Tell all the nations, “The Lord reigns!”
Do you ever listen to national or world news and feel as if everything is spinning completely out of control? There's anger on the Internet, divisions within families, and war across the globe. No wonder people feel overwhelmed. A lot of the uncertainty comes when we forget that God is still in control of His creation.
It doesn't matter what takes place or what disasters are predicted, God's world is firmly established and nothing can happen without His knowledge (1Chronicles 16:30). A professor once said, “Has it ever occurred to you that nothing has ever occurred to God? “Nothing scares or surprises the Lord who reigns over all. Confusion and chaos will never lead to a life of joy. Living joyfully is possible only when we remember that the Lord reigns.
Whatever today, tomorrow, or next year may bring, we'll rejoice knowing that God has it all under control.
