How do we know that God's providence guides all events?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture teaches that everything occurs according to God's sovereign plan and purpose for our salvation.

The concept of God’s providence indicates that all events in history and individual lives are orchestrated by Him according to His sovereign will. This belief is supported by many passages, such as Isaiah 53:10, which illustrates how Christ's suffering was part of divine providence for our redemption. Acts 2:23 and 4:27-28 further emphasize that even the most heinous acts against Christ were used by God to fulfill His redemptive plan. Understanding God's providence reassures believers that nothing is random or without purpose, as even the evil intentions of man are harmonized within God’s absolute sovereignty to accomplish His grace.
