How does God's grace enable faith in salvation?

Grace, in the context of salvation, is the unmerited favor of God. It is by grace that believers are saved, as Ephesians 2:8-9 declares, 'For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.' This illustrates that faith itself is a gift from God, not resulting from human effort. In the context of God's sovereign grace, when He calls His elect, He also enables them to respond in faith, overcoming their natural resistance to God. This notion is encapsulated in Philippians 2:13, saying, 'For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.' Thus, by His grace, God transforms the hearts of His people, producing in them the will and ability to believe in Him and accept the salvation offered in Christ.
