What does it mean that God changes our will?

Answered in 1 source

God changing our will means that He effectively makes us willing to come to Christ, not against our will, but aligning our desires with His.

The concept that God changes our will is foundational in Reformed theology; it emphasizes His role in salvation. In Psalm 110:3, it is stated that 'Thy people shall be willing in the day of Thy power', indicating that God's intervention transforms our hearts and desires. Rather than coercing us against our will, God renews our hearts, making us willing to seek and accept salvation through faith in Christ. This divine work illustrates the effectiveness of God's grace and power in the process of regeneration, leading to genuine belief and repentance.
