The Providence of God in the Making of a Nation | Acts 17:24–26

In this sermon, Pastor Brandon Scroggins examines the providence of God in the making of a nation, showing from Scripture that God is sovereign over nations, rulers, history, and every detail of our lives. From Acts 17, 1 Kings 22, Daniel, Ezra, and other passages, we are reminded that no nation rises or falls by accident, and no ruler governs outside the hand of Almighty God. As America approaches its 250th anniversary, this message calls Christians to rightly understand nationhood, providence, responsibility, patriotism, and the lordship of Jesus Christ over all things. God governs the affairs of men, and His people must trust Him, obey Him, and labor faithfully where He has planted them. “The providence of God includes lives, families, churches, nations, and even global empires. He holds the whole world in His hands.”
