How do we know that God spiritually enables us to see Him?

Answered in 1 source

God enables us to see Him through the regeneration of our hearts, granting us spiritual sight.

The recognition that God enables us to see Him is rooted in the doctrine of regeneration, which is central to Reformed theology. A seeing eye allows believers to recognize two crucial truths: their own sinfulness and the magnificent glory of God revealed in Christ. As Scripture explains in John 8:43, the inability to understand God's Word is a reflection of spiritual blindness. However, upon being regenerated, believers are given the ability to perceive spiritual realities and beauty in God. The transformation is not something that originates within us but is solely a result of God's sovereign grace. Ultimately, this new sight enables believers to find joy and assurance in God's promises and presence.
