How do we know God is in control of our future?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture assures us that God is sovereign over our future, as He holds authority over all circumstances, known and unknown.

The assurance that God is in control of our future stems from His sovereignty as presented throughout Scripture. In Psalm 112:7, we're reminded that a heart fixed and trusting in the Lord faces life's uncertainties without fear. This reflects a fundamental belief among believers that, regardless of what unfolds, God is indeed orchestrating events according to His perfect will.

Our understanding of God's sovereignty includes the belief that He is not passively observing our lives but actively involved in guiding and governing our paths. This belief enables us to confront anxiety about the future. By trusting in God's providence, we can embrace the unknown with confidence, knowing that whatever comes our way is part of His divine plan. His omniscience allows us to rest in the knowledge that He knows our days—past, present, and future—intimately, thus confirming His control over every aspect of our lives.
