How does God work in our struggles?

Answered in 1 source

God works in our struggles by revealing our weaknesses and leading us to reliance on Him.

The account of Jacob's struggle with God illustrates that God often uses our trials to bring us to a place of humility and dependence. Jacob wrestles with the Lord all night, representing the struggle every believer faces against their own flesh and doubts. In this struggle, God reveals Jacob's true condition and brings him to a point of surrender. Similarly, in our lives, struggles serve to expose our need for God, ensuring that we rely not on our strength but on His sovereignty and grace. As seen in Jacob’s transformation, enduring struggles can result in deeper spiritual growth and greater reliance on God.
