Today we are stepping into a glorious mystery as we consider the sovereignty of our God. In 1 Peter 1:20–21, we are reminded that Christ was foreknown before the foundation of the world and revealed in these last days for our sake. Long before creation, long before our birth, the redeeming work of Christ was already established in the perfect plan of God.

As we examine God’s foreknowledge and sovereign rule, we are reminded that He is God and we are not. Yet this truth is not meant to trouble us—it is meant to comfort us. Because the God who planned our salvation from eternity past is the same God who walks with us through suffering, hears our prayers, and holds our future.

His sovereignty gives us comfort in our suffering, confidence in our prayers, contentment in our waiting, and clarity in our uncertainty. Nothing about our lives is outside His knowledge or beyond His care. The Sovereign King is holy, good, just, and merciful—and He can be trusted with all things.

Join me as we consider the sovereign grace of God and the foreknown work of Christ. Let’s dig in and look to Jesus, our true hope!
