William Gurnall:
“The sovereignty of God is the foundation of all his other attributes. It is the source of his power, wisdom, and goodness. God’s sovereignty means that he is in control of everything that happens in the universe. Nothing can thwart his plans or purposes, and everything that occurs is ultimately for his glory and the good of his people. His sovereignty is not arbitrary but is exercised in perfect wisdom and righteousness. As his creatures, we are called to trust in his sovereignty, knowing that he works all things according to the counsel of his will.” (From “The Christian in Complete Armour”)
