#soap # Ezekiel 30 ## Title: The LORD is in Control ## Scripture: (Ezekiel 30:26) “I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them among foreign countries. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”” (NET) ## Observation: One of the things that comes up over and over in God’s Word is the fact that the LORD is in control. After prophesying all the bad things that are going to happen, God speaks through Ezekiel to say that seeing all this does not point to God’s absence but God’s presence. The LORD is in control on the good days and the bad days. When you get the promotion, your friend finally gets pregnant, or you catch that break… the LORD is in control. When everything goes bad, you lose your job, the pregnancy is delayed, and your anxiety seems out of control… the LORD is in control. No matter what, the LORD is in control. ## Application: Have confidence that you do not walk through anything alone. The LORD is in control. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for leading us in every situation.
