How are God's sovereignty and our free will compatible?

On what basis do you believe you have [autonmous] free will?

On what basis do you claim that God being sovereign is a violation of your will?

They're not.  Forget sovereignty.  If we didn't have our free will, God could neither justly reward nor punish us.

God gave us the right and ability to either accept His sovereignty or reject it, and has clearly described the result of each choice. That doesn't have any effect on the fact that He is Sovereign.

God is every word and you are a word that has freewill to use every word to create your own world around you. But no matter how bad you make it God has the power to fix it.

He is the ruler. We can choose to obey or disobey. Then we reap his favor or disfavor.

2 Tim 3:16 explains it.

Easy one. You exercise your will, and the Lord exercises his. 

You may have heard of those arranged marriages in the Middle East. It makes us cringe at the thought. But Why? Because we know true love can only be love when it is freely chosen. Likewise God wants a true relationship with His creations. And the only way for that to happen was to give us free will. To love means you also open up the possibility of being rejected

You have to squint real hard,

and immediately change the subject.

Don't bother trying to make sense of loony religious people's claims about their non-existent god.
