How does God's power relate to our faith in Christ?

Answered in 1 source

God's power is the source of our faith in Christ, as Paul teaches that we believe according to the working of His mighty power.

In Paul's writings, particularly in Ephesians, he notes that our faith is tied directly to the mighty power of God. This contrasts with common worldly views of belief as a mere exercise of will. Instead, Paul highlights that it is God's omnipotent work that enables us to believe in Christ. This emphasis on divine sovereignty underpins the Reformed tradition, highlighting that our conversion and the ability to trust in Christ are not attributable to human effort but to God's effective and gracious action in our lives.
