How do we know that God's will is for us to have faith?

The sermon emphasizes that God has a sovereign will and purpose behind every circumstance that His people face. This is evident in John 11 where Jesus allows Lazarus to die so that the glory of God may be revealed and so His disciples' faith may be strengthened. Romans 8:28 underlines this truth by stating that God works all things for the good of those who love Him. Believers can rest assured that all trials and challenges are divinely orchestrated to deepen their reliance on and faith in God rather than themselves.
