Deut. 8:11–18
Job 1:1–22
Matt. 10:26–33
Jas. 5:7–11
The doctrine of God's providence teaches us about "the almighty and ever-present power of God." We get a glimpse into the mysterious workings of God's providence in the first chapter of Job—not only that we have spiritual enemies, but also that God somehow uses even them to work out saving plan. In this message from the catechism we learn how to trust the sovereign governance of God, and to be patient, thankful, and confident Christians.
