Watch the news and listen to the talking heads and you begin to wonder who is running the world. When Jesus comes back, there will be no doubt about it. But are you confident that God is pulling the strings now? Who is really running the world? This Psalm may have been looking ahead or it may have been acknowledging that regardless of what politicians think, God is in control. Here is what Psalm 47:8-9 says:
God reigns over the nations;
God is seated on his holy throne.
The nobles of the nations assemble
as the people of the God of Abraham,
for the kings of the earth belong to God;
he is greatly exalted.
Paul expressed it this way in Romans 13:1, “The authorities that exist have been established by God.” This should give us great hope and confidence when we see people elected who we can’t fathom being our leaders. God is still in control. There is no reason to panic or lose hope.
Keep your eyes on Jesus. When he comes back, we will have the perfect Leader in control. But, if you don’t know Jesus, you won’t like his leadership. It is better to surrender to him now before he comes back. If you want to know why and how to surrender, watch my video on the Gospel on YouTube or read on this Gospel link.
