We know God is sovereign over our trials because Scripture affirms that He reigns over all circumstances and works everything for the good of His people.
Hebrews 11 illustrates that despite the variety of afflictions faced by God’s people, their faith in His sovereignty provided comfort and hope. Romans 8:28 assures us that all things work together for good for those who love God, implying that even trials and tribulations are under His divine control. God's overarching sovereignty means that our struggles serve His glorious purpose, even when we cannot see the immediate benefit.
