Genesis 11-12:4, Matthew 5:1-26, Psalms 5, Proverbs 1:24-28
What God said to me – One of the things you can learn from My word is My absolute sovereignty and control over the history of mankind. Even when they try to go their own way, I still accomplish My purposes. After a global flood of judgment, I told the survivors, Noah and his sons and their wives, to be fruitful and to multiply and to fill the whole earth. Just a couple of hundred years later, people were already rebelling against Me and coming up with their own plans. They decided to build a city and a tower so they wouldn’t be scattered abroad over the face of the earth rather than obey My command. The people learned the hard way that they could not thwart My plans when I divided them by language, and they were forced to fill the earth. When you look at the world today think about this story. No matter what men are doing or how they try to control the destiny of the world, “I AM” the one who is in control and My plans cannot be thwarted. Trust Me and watch Me accomplish My plan.
