How do we know that God prepares our hearts to receive His Word?

Answered in 1 source

God prepares our hearts through the work of the Holy Spirit, enabling us to receive His Word and respond positively.

The preparation of our hearts by God is an essential aspect of sovereign grace theology. In Luke 8:15, we see that God grants some individuals an honest and good heart that is receptive to His Word. It is the Holy Spirit who transforms our hearts, removing prejudices and distractions, and enabling us to perceive and accept the truth of the Gospel. This divine work not only allows us to understand the Word but also stirs within us a desire for spiritual growth and fruitfulness.
