How does God's grace impact our ability to follow Him?

Ephesians 2:1-3 illustrates that apart from God’s intervention, we are spiritually dead and unable to seek Him. However, through His grace, as seen in Abraham's calling, God works in individuals to bring about a willing response in faith. This divine enablement is a crucial aspect of sovereign grace theology; it affirms that our ability to follow God is not based on our merit but His sovereign choice to extend mercy towards us. Thus, the relationship between grace and obedience is foundational, as grace not only saves but transforms and empowers our living in accordance with God’s will.
