How does God use trials to test our faith?

Answered in 1 source

God uses trials as a means to test and strengthen the faith of believers, proving their genuine love for Him.

The testing of faith through trials is a biblical principle woven throughout Scripture. In 1 Peter 1:7, it states, 'That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ.' Trials reveal the authenticity of one’s faith and dependance on God. Like Job, who withstood immense suffering, believers are called to recognize that these challenges are not meant to break them but to equip them for greater spiritual maturity and a deeper relationship with God.
