How do we know all things work together for good?

Answered in 12 sources

Romans 8:28 assures believers that all things work together for good to those who love God, confirming His sovereign purpose in every circumstance.

Scripture teaches in Romans 8:28 that for every believer, we can trust in God's promise that all things work together for good, aligning with His purpose for His elect. This 'good' is not merely worldly comfort but a profound spiritual benefit fashioned by God for our ultimate well-being. Throughout the believer's life, both joys and sorrows serve as God’s instruments to bring about spiritual maturity and greater reliance on Him. Each event, every trial, and blessing is under His sovereign control, crafted perfectly to fulfill His eternal purpose and glory. Therefore, even experiences that seem negative are used by God to produce growth and bring glory to Him.
