How do we know God's invitation to salvation is effective?

Answered in 1 source

God's invitation is effective because it goes to those He has already called, bringing them to recognize their need for Him (Isaiah 55:1).

The effectiveness of God's invitation to salvation is rooted in His sovereign grace. The sermon explains that those who come to God are the ones He has already given life to; they recognize their spiritual thirst and poverty. This divine work enables them to respond to the invitation laid out in Isaiah 55:1. The Lord’s call goes forth not to those who are self-sufficient but to the thirsty and bankrupt, assuring us that His grace is sufficient for those who truly seek Him. This truth is consistent with Romans 8:30, where we see that those whom God predestines, He also calls.
