How do we know God restrains the wrath of man?

God's sovereignty over human actions is crucial in understanding how He restrains wrath. Psalm 76:10 states, 'Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.' This implies that while human anger and actions can be unruly, God holds ultimate control and can limit their destructive power. This principle is evident in the story of Abram, who was spared harm from Pharaoh's wrath. God’s providence ensures that life’s hostile circumstances do not thwart His purposes or harm His people.
