How do we know that God’s call is effectual?

The effectual call of God is a critical doctrine that highlights the distinction between a general call to all and a particular call to God's chosen ones. It is the Holy Spirit that works in the hearts of the elect, enabling them to respond in faith to the gospel. As illustrated with Moses, when God called him from the bush, it was a personal and transformative encounter, leading him from self-reliance to dependence on God. This effectual calling results in genuine faith, repentance, and a life dedicated to serving God, affirming that those called will indeed come to know and believe in Christ. Thus, it's a sovereign work that is rooted in God's purpose and grace.
