Ezekiel 36:26-27
I’m going to give you a new heart, and I’m going to give you a new spirit within all of your deepest parts. I’ll remove that rock-hard heart of yours and replace it with one that’s sensitive to Me. I’ll place my spirit within you, empowering you to live according to my regulations and to keep my just decrees.

I desire to have faith that overcomes “the will of the flesh” which dwells within me, whose workings make it painfully manifest in my inward conflict with the carnal mind. I desire victory over the flesh, profanity, sin, and treachery working all around me. If I follow the Lord fully and yield myself wholly to what God in Christ is ready to do, I shall find in the gospel and in Christ everything that I need for a life of joy, strength, and final victory.

Isaiah 55:8 “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,” declares the Lord.

Romans 3:24 Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.

Find peace in your conscience by accepting this Gospel grace and conforming your mind to His. Instead of being profane, contentious, selfish, or sensual, you will become patient, humble, kind, and peaceable.

2 Corinthians 3:18 As all of us reflect the glory of the Lord with unveiled faces, we are becoming more like Him with ever-increasing glory by the Lord’s Spirit.

A yielded heart led by the Holy Spirit can expect to profit from the teaching of this Word and truly know Jesus Christ in His divine saving power. Angels brought beautiful messages from God in the past, but now God is drawing nearer to you and waiting to speak in a far more wonderful and blessed way by revealing the eternal Word in your heart.

God is awesome in that He knows our hearts and fills them with His Spirit, which will make a difference in how we act and make decisions. Learn to yield your heart to the Holy Spirit, and you will see His ways and thoughts become your own.
