How do we know our desires for God are from Him?

Answered in 1 source

Desires for God stem from His grace, as He places holy longings in the hearts of His people.

The sermon highlights that God is the source of all good desires in our hearts, as He is the one who puts such longings within us. This principle is illustrated in David's desire to build a house for God. Instead of rebuking David, God acknowledges his good intentions, indicating that the Holy Spirit works within the hearts of believers to cultivate desires that align with His will. This affirming nature of God's interaction with us reveals how He shapes our inclinations toward worship and service as a reflection of His grace.
