What does the Bible say about God's sovereignty in grace?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible teaches that God is sovereign over all things, including grace, and dispenses mercy according to His own will (Ephesians 1:11).

Scriptural evidence indicates that God's sovereignty extends to His grace, meaning that He chooses to show mercy to whom He wills. In Ephesians 1:11, we see that God works all things according to the counsel of His will, affirming that His decisions regarding grace are not influenced by human merit or worthiness. This emphasizes the absolute sovereignty of God in the process of salvation, demonstrating that our salvation is rooted in His divine choice rather than our own actions or decisions, as elaborated in Romans 9:15-16, where God states, 'I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy.'
