Mad because the affairs of man did not turn out the way you wanted them too. Who do you think you are? Listen, and listen good. ALL existing authority is set up by Me. [Romans 13:1]. There is no authority except from Me, and those that exist have been placed there by Me. I tell you, when you understand that there is nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing that can happen unless I allow it, you will be alright. For I am God and God all by myself! And let me just say this, if you resist the authorities whom I have appointed, you will incur judgment. You better know that you know! For it is I, who declare how things turn out long before they ever happen. For it is I, who declare not just natural events, but human events. I rule the kingdom of men and give it to whom I will. [Daniel 4:32]. I plan and govern all things, not you. [Isaiah 46:8-11]. It is I, who declare the end from the beginning and from ancient times things not yet done. It is I, who removes kings and set up kings. [Daniel 2:21]. I tell you, when you understand that there is nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing that can happen, unless I allow it, you will be alright.” My counsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all My purposes. “For the earth is Mines and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it.” [Psalm 24:1]. EVERYTHING is subject to My command. Nothing can take place without My sanctioning it. If you will only grasp this truth and comprehend that fact, you will stop worrying about a lot of things because absolutely nothing happens without My permission. Even the devil has to seek My permission. Know that I will use anything and anyone of My choosing to fulfill My divine purpose. [Job 1:6, 12; 2:6] [John 19:11]. “For no plan of Mine can be thwart.” [Job 42:2].
I want you to know that EVERYTHING in the universe is either caused by God or allowed by God. Nothing ever “just happens” and nothing is caused by someone or something outside of God’s control. Whatever is happening to us is part of the working of God’s plan. God is at work in all things at all times to accomplish His will in the universe. He does whatever pleases Him. And He will ALWAYS have the final say! [Ephesians 1:11].
“Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.” [Proverbs 16:33; 19:21].
I believe “all Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness…” [2 Timothy 3:16, 17.] and that includes the text in [Romans 13
