How does grace affect our ability to do God's will?

Answered in 1 source

Grace enables us to respond to God's will authentically and powerfully (Ephesians 2:8-9).

Grace is central to our ability to do God's will. Ephesians 2:8-9 tells us that we are saved by grace through faith, and this grace transforms our hearts, allowing us to desire and fulfill His will. It is not through our own strength that we achieve obedience but through the empowering presence of the Holy Spirit that grace provides. The parable of the two sons illustrates that true repentance and obedience arise from an authentic encounter with grace, leading even those deemed unworthy—such as publicans and harlots—to enter the kingdom before the self-righteous. This underscores the necessity of recognizing our need for God's grace daily as it equips us to fulfill His purposes.
