How does God's sovereignty affect human free will?

Answered in 1 source

God's sovereignty does not negate human free will but affirms that His purpose prevails in all choices.

The tension between divine sovereignty and human free will has been a subject of theological discussion. The Reformed perspective maintains that while God is sovereign and His will is unchangeable, humans are still responsible for their decisions. Romans 9 makes this clear as it discusses God's authority over individuals (verses 20-21). Ultimately, God’s sovereignty works through human choices without violation, demonstrating that even in our free will, His divine plan is accomplished, leading to His glory and our good.
