    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    Yeah all actions of man are under Gods control, his entire walk or steps are ordered by the Lord. Lets look at Jeremiah 10:23 23 O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps. If man doesnt direct his steps as the ho;y prophet...
