How does Christ stir up the hearts of believers?

Answered in 1 source

Christ stirs the hearts of believers through the Holy Spirit and by exposing their need for Him.

The sermon's theme highlights that Christ engages with His Bride in specific, often unexpected ways to stir her heart. By withdrawing at times or allowing her to experience the weight of her sin, He creates a longing and need for His presence. This process is not punitive but redemptive, as it awakens the believer’s affection for Him and refines their understanding of grace. The Holy Spirit plays a vital role in stirring believers’ hearts, prompting a deeper yearning for Christ's love and fellowship. This divine act of initiating the relationship reaffirms Christ's commitment to His Bride and His desire to draw His people closer.
