How do we know that God ordains all things, including our victories?

Answered in 1 source

We know God ordains all things as scripture confirms that His sovereign purposes govern all of creation.

The assurance that God ordains all things rests upon His sovereignty as revealed in scripture. This is illustrated in the sermon when the captain tells Joshua that Jericho has already been given into his hand, signifying that God’s purposes are established before they are visibly realized. God's knowledge of all His works from the beginning of creation affirms that each step taken by His followers is according to His divine plan. The scriptures, such as Ephesians 1:11, clarify that He works all things according to the counsel of His will. This understanding provides believers with confidence that their efforts and struggles are not in vain, as every victory is part of God's redemptive plan.
