How do we know that God intervenes in our lives?

Answered in 2 sources

Scripture illustrates God's intervention, as seen in 2 Kings 6, where God enabled iron to swim, symbolizing His ability to save.

The narrative in 2 Kings 6 serves as a poignant reminder of God's sovereign intervention in the lives of His people. When the young prophet lost his borrowed axe head in the Jordan River, it symbolizes our state of being lost in sin. Elisha, directed by God, cast a tree into the water to cause the iron to swim, illustrating God's power to save. This act not only points to a miraculous event but serves as a representation of how God intervenes in our lives, drawing us from the depths of our sin and restoring us. Thus, we are reminded that God is actively involved in our circumstances, working for our good and His glory.
