From the book “Truth For Today: A Daily Touch of God’s Grace” by John F. MacArthur

God left him [King Hezekiah] to himself, in order to test him and to know all that was in his heart. - 2 Chronicles 32:31 

God didn’t need to test Hezekiah to know what was in his heart. God already knew by omniscience. But He tests us so we can find out. He assists us in doing a spiritual inventory on ourselves by bringing trials into our lives to demonstrate the strength or weakness of our faith. If you’re currently experiencing a trial and are shaking your fist at God and wondering why it’s happening, that’s a good indication that you have weak faith. If, on the other hand, you’re resting and rejoicing in the Lord, having placed the trial into His care, then you have strong faith.
