The sovereignty of God is humbling to the human nature of mankind. Realization and recognition of the sovereignty of God can be the basis of much needed peace, joy, confidence, and relief as He is known as He is.

Those who hear the gospel and reject it are naturally being hardened against God and unless He chooses to intervene, will suffer the consequences of their will that opposed God's. Those who seek Him will be received by Him because He will have first given that desire to do so.
