How do we know that God uses suffering for His glory?

Answered in 1 source

We see throughout Scripture, especially in Paul's experiences, that God utilizes suffering to advance His purposes and glorify His name.

God's sovereignty ensures that all things, including suffering and persecution, are ultimately used for His glory. In Philippians 1:12, Paul explains that his imprisonment has led to the spread of the gospel among the palace guards and others, demonstrating a divine plan at work. This is consistent with biblical themes where suffering is often a catalyst for greater good, as seen in Romans 8:28, which assures us that all things work together for good to those who love God. Thus, suffering is seen as a tool in God's hands to bring about His will and mature believers in their faith.
