I will do it!

One of the advantages of lockdown is we get to do things that we have put off for a long time (assuming you have all the resource to do it at hand!) Often we say, I will do... and yet it takes us a long time to get round to doing it at all.

When God says he will do something, he will.

For I will take you out of the nations; I will gather you from all the countries and bring you back into your own land. I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your impurities and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. Then you will live in the land I gave your ancestors; you will be my people, and I will be your God.Ezekiel 36:24-28

This is a promise to the people of Israel. It is also worked out in all of God's people. At the heart of it, is God himself. He is the one who is the prime mover. He is the one who does it all. That is what salvation means. We do nothing, he does it all.

Praise him for all he has done.
