What does the Bible say about God's purpose in proving faith?

In John 6:6, Jesus proves the faith of His disciples not for His own benefit, but for theirs, to authenticate their faith as genuine and encouraging them in their dependence on Him. This proving process highlights God’s desire for His children to rest assured in a faith that is rooted in Him, rather than in false refuges. Moreover, proving our faith serves to demonstrate God’s glory, showing that He is capable of performing miracles, even when circumstances appear impossible, as illustrated by the feeding of the 5,000 with just five loaves and two fish.
