How do we know that our steps are ordered by God?

The assurance that our steps are ordered by God comes from His sovereign control over all aspects of life. As the Preacher noted, even when our paths appear problematic, God's omniscience ensures that these experiences are part of His divine plan. This is backed by scripture, as we observe God's faithfulness in the lives of biblical figures, such as David and Joseph, whose journeys illustrate that God’s guidance is always purposeful. The Lord promises to uphold His children and lead them to glory, despite their struggles and failures, which reinforces our trust in His sovereignty and goodness.
