I'll bring you up to date where we were last time and show you where we're going to go

tonight, Lord willing.

The topic in this long series on Providence of God was the province of God over the

wills of individual people. You know we talked about the province of individual people.

You know, we talked about the Providence of God

over weather, and we talked about the Providence

of God over nations and so on.

And the implication has always lain there very close beneath the service that for him to do all of this ruling it sounds like he has the right and the authority to also direct the wills of individual people and

what we saw was that that's true. God does have the ultimate influence over the wheels of people.

I'm not going to walk through these texts again, otherwise we would wind up just where we were at the end of last hour.

I'm just going to show you the questions we posed, with all my markings still on them.

God influences and enables our willing as we ought. We are slaves to will thin without the influences of God's sovereign grace.

Text on that.

God's sovereign grace overcomes our blindness and hardness and slavery to sin.

And that's where we stopped last week.

God over on this one.

There wasn't one on this one. There wasn't one on this page, you mean

first one?

I don't remember to an excuse me. No, no limber to ecclesiasties verse.

Lamentations?

Yeah, 3, 37, 38. These will be available in the file cabinets upstairs in case you want all the

texts gathered together for you. Now I'm going to show a few more texts on that
