Day 28

Weekly Truth

from the Ezekiel: Come to Life (Lent 2022) reading plan


Ezekiel 36:26-28

BY She Reads Truth

Scripture is God-breathed and true. When we memorize it, we carry His Word with us wherever we go. 

This week we’re adding the second half of verse 27 to our memorization, where God promises that His people will once again walk in His ways.  

“I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will remove your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. I will place my Spirit within you and cause you to follow my statutes and carefully observe my ordinances. You will live in the land that I gave your ancestors; you will be my people, and I will be your God.
—Ezekiel 36:26–28

    Hope all are having a restful, peaceful, and joy-filled Sunday! Dropping back in to read comments and realized I didn’t say that this morning! I love seeing new and familiar names each day! Unity is love, unity is strength, and unity is hope for an ever-changing, upside-down world.

    Have you all heard the song “Stand?” It’s a good one! “I’m gonna stand, in a world that’s shaken, Stand…

    New heart, new spirit. From a biblical perspective the heart is the seat of mind and will, not just emotion. Discipline with a new heart looks like self control, my whole being aligned in God’s will. Fruit of the spirit grows from here. Not my will but Yours Lord be done. “Repent and live.” (Ezek 18:32) “And make for yourselves a new heart and new spirit.” (v 31). In the act of taking personal responsibility for my own sin, when I repent, my heart is made new, my spirit is made new. And I live in tandem with God’s will. With Yahweh. Self reliance hardens my heart. When my heart is hard I cannot respond to God as I should. My self separates me from Yahweh. “A voice calling in the wilderness, clear the way of Yahweh” (Isaiah 40, quoted by John). Yahweh’s divine council back in session, launching the kingdom of God with Jesus as their point man. (Dr. M Heiser). The sea was split in Exodus, the heavens were split with/for Jesus, as God made a way for His people to be saved. A new Exodus event. Jesus emerged, cloaked in humility, more than 500 years after the return of Judah from exile. A new battle begins… Until. Maranatha.

    Just wanted to add something from my worship service, we sang a song that the lyrics really spoke to me, here they are:
    “Why is it Lord
    that when we’re stressed
    we feel things more
    and think things less?

    We let the fear
    that is inside
    become our ruler
    and our guide,

    We say the things
    we ought not say
    we let concerns
    control the day,

    Lord, take our fear
    and in it’s place
    fill us with love
    and hope and grace.”

    What a beautiful message this has in it and I had to share it with you all.
