How do we know that God ordains all powers?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture reveals that all powers are ordained of God, declaring that Christ rules over all (Colossians 1:16).

The doctrine of God's sovereignty asserts that He controls all aspects of life, including those in authority. As stated in Colossians 1:16, 'For by him were all things created that are in heaven and that are in earth.' This underscores that all thrones, dominions, and powers exist under Christ's authority. The very existence of civil powers is part of God's plan for His creation, ensuring that His will is accomplished in governance, whether we perceive it as good or evil.
