If there is but one little germ somewhere out there in the universe which is not under God's dominion and control, then two things are true:

1. God is not "God over all" as the scriptures so plainly declare him to be
2.My life, health, and well being is merely a matter of chance. I cannot honestly thank God for life and health, nor can he honestly ask for nor receive my thanks.

If there is but ONE demon somewhere out there in the universe which is not under God's sovereign dominion and control, then my soul is in deep trouble, and if I am finally saved at all it will be merely a matter of chance. I have No power against demons, and if just one if them is active outside the sphere of God's dominion and control then the "Sure mercies of David" are not so sure after all. Somehow I must manage to avoid that demon.

The ONLY hope for a real sinner is an absolutely sovereign Lord and Saviour.
There and only there can a poor, weak, sinful soul confidently rest in peace. Paul said "I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to KEEP that which I have committed unto him against that day" 2 Tim. 1:12

He can keep his saints because he IS ......... "GOD over all"

Jesus Christ is God almighty. He has power and dominion over us all.
Thank him and trust in him alone and not anything you may say or do.
To God be ALL the Glory, honor and praise now and forever.
