How do we know God opens hearts?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture reveals that God opens hearts as He did with Lydia in Acts 16:14, enabling her to attend to the gospel.

In Acts 16:14, we read about Lydia, whose heart the Lord opened to pay attention to Paul's message. This illustrates the biblical truth that it's God who transforms closed hearts into receptive ones. The act of God opening someone's heart indicates a sovereign initiative where humans, by nature, are unable to respond positively to the gospel due to their total depravity. By opening hearts, God allows individuals to comprehend and embrace His truth, demonstrating His grace and mercy in salvation.
