At the fall of Adam and Eve, man was separated from God by man’s own choice. It was never God’s intention to be separated from man. Since that moment God has been doing nothing else but bringing man back into oneness, or reconciliation with Himself. God’s desire is for God and Man to be one
As far God the Father, He has already made His choice and paid the entire price for the reconciliation. All that is left for man to make his choice. It has to be man’s own choice to be reconciled to God. Man chose to be separated from God, so it had to man’s choice to return to God.
Reconciliation between God and Man is God’s number 1 priority. It was so important to God that He paid for our reconciliation with the life of His only Son Jesus.
John 3: 16 – 17 (Amplified) For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He [even] gave up His only begotten (unique) Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life. (17) For God did not send the Son into the world in order to judge (to reject, to condemn, to pass sentence on) the world, but that the world might find salvation and be made safe and sound through Him.
Ephesians 2: 4 – 5 (Amplified) But God–so rich is He in His mercy! Because of and in order to satisfy the great and wonderful and intense love with which He loved us, (5) Even when we were dead (slain) by [our own] shortcomings and trespasses, He made us alive together in fellowship and in union with Christ; [He gave us the very life of Christ Himself, the same new life with which He quickened Him, for] it is by grace (His favor and mercy which you did not deserve) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s salvation).
1st John 3: 8 …For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.
The price has already been paid in full. All provision has been made by our Loving Heavenly Father. The invitation has been made. We can now be reconciled to our Father God if we want to and choose to.
1St John 4: 15 – 17 (NKJV) Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. (16) And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him. (17) Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.
