How do we know that God does not allow His children to find contentment outside of Christ?

In the sermon, it is articulated that God's grace prevents His children from finding lasting happiness in anything but Himself. This is rooted in the understanding that our flesh may chase after the things of the world, but ultimately, God will not allow our hearts to rest in transient pleasures. The story of Jonah serves as a poignant illustration of this, where Jonah's journey illustrates the futility of seeking fulfillment outside God's providence. Apostle Paul reinforces this in Philippians 4:19 by promising that 'my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.' Thus, it is God's grace that continually draws us back to our true source of satisfaction.
