    A synonym for supremacy is imperium. Imperium is defined as:
    supreme power or absolute dominion. It also means: the right to command or to employ the force of the state.

    What encourages you about God's imperium?

    The Supremacy of God means that there is no power that can stand against God. Not demons, not men, not anyone.
    The Supremacy of God means that when bad things happen, God is using the bad to work out His perfect will.
    The Supremacy of God means that I can never screw something up so badly that God is left perplexed and incapable of fixing it.
    The Supremacy of God means that when God promises something, He fulfills the promise.

    That not only did He decide to love me, there was absolutely no way for me to have never been saved.

    That not only does He keep me by His power ( and not my own faulty efforts ), I can never forfeit what He has given me...eternal life ( John 17:3 ).
    It was always a "done deal", start to finish.

    His love for me in the face of what I've done to Him, simply amazes me.:Notworthy

    This hymn expresses God's Supremacy in all things.
    "Whate'er My God Ordains is Right"
