How do we know God's anger is turned away from us?

Answered in 1 source

God's anger is turned away due to the sacrifice of Christ, who bore our sins and reconciled us to God.

The turning away of God's anger is intimately connected to the atoning work of Jesus Christ. When we consider our sinfulness and the wrath we justly deserve, it's essential to understand that in God's sovereign mercy, His anger is appeased through the sacrifice of His Son. As stated in Isaiah 12:1-2, although there was a time when God's anger was upon us, Christ took that wrath and brought comfort to us by His own sacrifice. This reconciliation occurs because Jesus, who was punished for our sins, fulfills God's justice while simultaneously extending grace to us as His elect.
