We trust in God's providence based on Scripture, the experiences of faith, and the revelation of the Holy Spirit, which assures us of His control over all things.
The assurance of God's providence is firmly rooted in Holy Scripture, as demonstrated in multiple biblical passages. Romans 8:28 asserts that God works all things for the good of those who love Him. Furthermore, the scriptures reveal that even events labeled as 'evil' fall under God's sovereign governance. Our understanding is also shaped by personal experiences of grace and faith, which affirm that God consistently acts for the well-being of His elect. Ultimately, our knowledge of God's providence is enhanced by the work of the Holy Spirit, who teaches and reminds us of God's promises and purposes.
