We live in a wicked and dangerous world. A world full of bad deeds and wicked individuals. This has led people to wonder and ask "who really controls the world--God,humankind or someone else?. So, if you are ask,who controls the world? What will your response be?

God controls the world and its affairs. Anything you see happening has already been written.

If God does not allow it, it cannot happen...

See the scripture below...

Psalms 24:1 The earth is the LORD's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

God is the Sovereign one - men rule over themselves but God is the one who wields control over all.

Satan controls the world, God limits him and helps man by His sovereignty.

A first century Jewish carpenter who later became a teacher taught his followers to pray this way:

“You must pray, then, this way: “‘Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified. Let your Kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also on earth" Matthew 6:9-10

That's why i believe that the man who said the above statement is God's Son {John 3:16} if you look around you you'll discover that many evil things happens everywhere so it's obvious that the whole world is under the control of an evil genius! 1John 5:19

God bless you and may you have PEACE!

Money and politics control the world.

Money and politics control the world.

Very close to the answer but let me help you.

Only Politics CONTROLS the world but the world's Political system is in the hands of Satan the devil! Luke 4:5-7 compare to 1John 5:19

As for Money, Fame, Beauty, Eloquence, Weapons, Affluence and Charm all these are instruments in the hands of Politicians!

Where was God when Satan was taking over the affairs

It was Adam and Eve that VOTED for Satan when they agreed with his proposal and don't forget that God is not forcing them to obey Him, He gave them options which is they live if they OBEY or die if they DISOBEY.
So they chose to be on Satan's side thinking God's word won't come true!

He has given them His words and as PERFECT humans God supposed not to compel them on whether to live or die. The choice is theirs!

Satan has brought back the same system but this time around Satan is compelling people to take side with him.
WHY?
Because unlike Adam and Eve who lacked nothing good, humans today lacks many good things that Satan as ruler of the world could offer to manipulate their thinking. Luke 4:5-7

That's why politicians today are using everything within their reach to convince, compel and in most cases force you to take side with them!

The preaching and teaching we are doing today is because the people around us aren't perfect so their conscience needed to be trained before they can SEE clearly that there are just two organizations, one belonging to God and the other belonging to Satan.

Satan's organization is the BROAD ROAD where many misinformed religionists, atheists and agnostics are travelling through.

God's organization is the NARROW PATH known globally today as Jehovah's Witnesses.
You will notice that all other people be it atheists, religionists and agnostics when it comes to Politics they are all carried along but that's not with JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES because we know the REAL person behind their moves.

He will make them kill one another even when they know that killing is evil, in fact Satan will give them a thousand and one reason to kill their fellowman in the face of POLITICS!

God bless you and may you have PEACE!

God alone!

Thank you for your response!. The Psalms you mentioned actually says God is the owner of the earth,but the question ask is who is controlling or ruling the world as at now?...

The Bible gave an answer(s). 1st John 5:19 says we originate with God but the whole world is lying under the power of the wicked one. The wicked one refer to in that verse cannot be God but Satan.

Thus, God owns this world but he is not the one controlling or ruling over the world as at now.

ALLAH DOES.

THE SUPREME BEING WHO ALONE HAS THE DOMINION OF THE UNIVERSE IN HIS HANDS.

ALL POWERS BELONG TO HIM ALONE
AND HE SHARE HIS POWER AND KINGDOM WITH NONE.

GOOD AND BAD WROUGHT BY THE HANDS OF MAN ARE ALL KNOWN TO HIM.
THAT HE MAY RECOMPENSE ALL ON THE LAST DAY ACCORDING TO OUR DEEDS.

NOTHING COMES TO HIM AS A SURPRISE.
