How does God exercise His power in the salvation of His people?

Answered in 1 source

God exercises His power through regeneration and conversion, making His people willing to believe.

God’s salvation is accomplished through His sovereign power, which is evident in both regeneration and conversion. Regeneration is the act of God where He imparts spiritual life to those who are dead in trespasses and sins (Ephesians 2:1). This supernatural work changes the heart and ensures that the individual will respond in faith to the gospel. Following this, conversion takes place through the preaching of the gospel, where the Holy Spirit works in the hearts of the elect, leading them to trust in Christ. Thus, God's power is both the source and the means by which He brings His chosen people into willing faith and obedience.
