How do we know that God is sovereign in our trials?

Answered in 2 sources

God's sovereignty in trials is affirmed through scripture that teaches He orchestrates all events for His glory and our good.

The Apostle Paul, even when imprisoned and facing false accusations, expressed unshakable confidence in God's sovereignty. As voiced in Romans 8:28, God works all things together for good for those who love Him, showcasing that even in dire circumstances, He is in control. This belief enables Christians to face trials with courage, knowing they are part of God's divine plan. Paul's actions in Acts 24 exemplified a faith that did not yield to fear; his unwavering faith reminds us that God’s purposes are often hidden but are ultimately for our sanctification and His glory. Christians can take comfort that, as God orchestrates events, every trial serves a greater purpose in shaping our character to reflect Christ.
