Obeying God Is Not Possible
You cannot obey God.
You can't obey God with your strength.
Obedience to God's word, requires love. Love that is of God, through the Holy Spirit (Romans 5:5).
God told Ezekiel that He would restore Israel's backsliding and make them like the garden of Eden (Ezekiel 36:35).
How to be like the Garden of Eden? Let the Spirit be poured into you so you obey God's word and regulations (Ezekiel 36:27).
Eden was a land of plenty. It was good, full of fruits, abundant in supply. There was fellowship with the Father.
What seeds are you sowing in your life? Every garden requires a gardener. Who have you allowed in? The word of God is the seed that proceeds from the Father. We come alive in Him.
In the parable of the vineyard, we see how the gardener pleads on behalf of the tree that fails to bear fruit - seeking an extension. Christ is that gardener, we are the vineyard of the Lord.
Is Christ your gardener? Or is it Satan, the world, or your fleshly lusts?
Israel was in absolute ruins. God still sought their restoration. THERE IS HOPE BEYOND HOPE in Christ Jesus.
God desires willing hearts. Not those who think they are righteous.
Your time is now!
Maranatha, Praise God, and Amen.
