Why is it significant that God's wrath is used for His glory?

Answered in 1 source

God's use of human wrath ultimately serves to display His mercy and power.

Psalm 76:10 states, 'Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee; the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.' This suggests that even when individuals, like Saul, harbor anger and malicious intent, God can turn these circumstances to manifest His glory and sovereignty. In the narrative of David and Saul, Saul's wrath intended to destroy David however becomes a backdrop for God's deliverance of David, illustrating that God's purpose prevails regardless of human opposition. This is a vital reminder for Christians of God's omnipotence—how He can use even the most challenging situations for our good and His glory.
