What can we learn here in
this story?
>God is not obligated to show grace to sinners. Grace is not a deserved thing.
Is it possible that we forget God is not obligated to give grace?
How do we get caught off guard when God brings judgment and not grace.
Notice, there is no announcement of pending judgment.
>God is sovereign (even over evil)
If God is only sovereign over good stuff, there would be a lot that He has no control over.
Let us consider Daniel 2:2
