How do we know that God controls all affairs according to Scripture?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture reveals that God's sovereignty encompasses all events, demonstrating His authority over earthly matters.

The Bible repeatedly affirms God's sovereignty over all creation, which includes the actions and decisions of individuals, even those who do not believe in Him. For instance, the account of Paul being protected by Claudius Lysias exemplifies how God uses even non-believers to fulfill His divine purposes. Romans 8:31 declares, 'If God be for us, who can be against us?' reinforcing the certainty of God's controlling hand in all affairs. Such biblical instances encourage believers to trust that despite apparent chaos or opposition, God's plans remain intact and are always directed toward His ultimate glory and the good of His people. This truth is vital for Christians, as it fosters confidence and assurance in God’s providential care.
