We know God is able by the testimony of Scripture, which reveals His power and faithfulness throughout history.
The knowledge of God’s ability is fundamentally tied to Scripture and the historical acts of God as recorded in the Bible. For instance, through the accounts of Abraham’s faith in God's promise to raise Isaac from the dead, and Rahab's faith in the salvation of her household, we see repeated affirmations of God’s capabilities. Furthermore, Scriptures like James 1:12 remind us that God blesses those who endure trials, highlighting His power to sustain and deliver His people. Our faith rests on the historical and providential actions of God, who has demonstrated His ability through His divine intervention.
