How does God’s intervention lead to conversion?

Answered in 1 source

God's intervention, through the Holy Spirit, brings the light of the gospel, awakening a person from spiritual death to life.

God's intervention is essential for conversion, as it is through His grace that individuals are awakened from spiritual death. Acts 12 illustrates this through the angel’s appearance to Peter, which symbolizes how God reaches into the darkness of human sin to bring His light. This divine action breaks the chains of sin, enabling the individual to respond to the gospel message. Just as Peter was physically delivered from prison, we see that spiritual deliverance involves a miraculous change wrought by the Holy Spirit, who regenerates the heart, enabling faith and repentance. It highlights the necessity of looking to Christ for salvation, as only He can raise the spiritually dead to life.
