How do we know that enduring injustice is acceptable to God?

Answered in 1 source

Suffering for doing good is acceptable to God as it reflects the patience modeled by Christ during His unjust suffering.

Peter clarifies in verse 20 of 1 Peter 2 that enduring suffering when one has done well is commendable before God. This is because it mirrors the example of Christ, who suffered innocently, bearing our sins and showing patience. When Christians face unjust treatment for their faith or righteousness, it is seen as acceptable in God's eyes. The grace of God enables believers to endure such trials, signifying not only their faith but also God's work in their lives to cultivate character that resembles Christ.
