How do we know God's providence is true?

Answered in 10 sources

God's providence is evident in Scripture, which states that nothing happens outside His will, including the smallest details (Isaiah 46:9-11).

The doctrine of providence asserts that God is actively involved in the governance of the universe, orchestrating events according to His purpose. Isaiah 46:9-11 articulates this beautifully, saying, "Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, declaring the end from the beginning." This reflects God's omniscience and His ability to bring about His divine plan.

Furthermore, Romans 11:33-36 highlights the depth of God's wisdom in executing His providential will. It reminds us that God’s judgments are unsearchable, and His ways are beyond our understanding. As believers, recognizing God's providence provides profound peace, assuring us that even in troubling times, God's hand is at work guiding our lives toward His ultimate purpose.
