He is in control. [ Matthew 28 v18]

As one reads the OT prophets who primary spoke to Israel,but they also spoke to the nations of the world,Jonah was sent to minister to Nineveh capital of Assyria.Daniel spoke as regards the nations of this world both future and in his time, CPchapters four and eight.The point that I am making while God primarary interest is in relation to His church,He is working out his purpose in all this world.No nation is excluded from His sovereign purposes,at this time in the United Kingdom Scotland is voting as regards independence. For many this is an unsettleing time,will they or wont they,break away from the Union,people are voting,so that's it we are at the mercy of the ballet box,no as a child of God I believe the result is in Gods hands,in Proverbs 8 v16,we read /By Me kings reign/,we read in Daniel 5v21,/God ruled in the kingdom of men,and that He appointed over it whomsoever He will/. The vote may not go as we like it,but it is in Gods hands,He who is working all things according to His will [Ephesians 1 v 11], He is in control.
A  prayer....../ Almighty God we bow to Your sovereign purposes,in our own lives and in the events of this world, in Jesus name Amen /
