How do we know God's call is genuine?

Answered in 2 sources

God’s call is genuine when it is accompanied by His promises, as seen when He reassured Moses in Exodus 3:18 that the people would heed his voice.

Throughout Scripture, God calls individuals for specific purposes, providing them with assurances of success. In Exodus 3:18, God tells Moses that the elders of Israel would listen to him, affirming the validity of his calling. This assurance is crucial; when God calls a person, He also equips them and guarantees the outcome according to His sovereign will. This demonstrates that God does not merely delegate tasks without backing them up with divine power and purpose. Furthermore, Moses’s eventual compliance despite his doubts serves to reinforce the idea that God’s call is about His sovereignty and empowerment, not merely human ability or confidence.
