Why is experiencing God's work important for Christians?

Experiencing the work of God in our lives is crucial as it cultivates confidence in His promises and His faithfulness. Wheatley highlights that the blind man in John 9 was able to affirm, 'One thing I know, that whereas I was blind, now I see.' Such personal experiences of transformation through God's grace serve to validate the truths of Scripture. They build our conviction and encourage us to testify about what God has done, strengthening our faith and giving us the assurance that God acts in our lives.
