John Flavel:
“God’s sovereignty is the exercise of His supreme authority and power over all creation. He rules and reigns with absolute sovereignty, governing the affairs of the world according to His wise and righteous will. His sovereignty extends to all things, from the smallest detail to the grandest event, and nothing happens apart from His sovereign decree. In His sovereignty, He ordains both good and evil, blessing and trial, for His own glory and the accomplishment of His eternal purposes. As His creatures, we are called to trust in His sovereignty, knowing that He works all things together for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.” (From “The Works of John Flavel”)
