What does the Bible say about God's sovereignty in our trials?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible teaches that God is sovereign and works all things together for good for those who love Him (Romans 8:28).

Scripture emphasizes God's sovereignty, especially during difficult trials. Romans 8:28 provides a clear assurance that 'all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are the called according to His purpose.' This means that even in our pain and confusion, God is actively working for our ultimate good. His sovereignty assures us that nothing happens outside of His divine will, and His plans for us are good and purposeful, thereby providing us with hope in our darkest moments.
