How do we know that God prepares the hearts of sinners?

Answered in 1 source

God prepares the hearts of sinners through the work of the Holy Spirit, breaking up their hard hearts to receive His Word.

The scripture illustrates that before the sowing of seeds, preparation is essential (Isaiah 28:24-25). This is akin to the work of the Holy Spirit in a sinner's heart, as seen in passages like Hosea 10:12 which exhorts, 'Break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek the Lord.' The heart's preparation is a vital step in God's redemptive work. The Spirit works to convict individuals of their sin, fostering a sense of need for the Savior. This preparatory work leads to genuine faith and repentance, showcasing God's meticulous care in ensuring that His word takes root in ready hearts.
