Obedience is a Heart Matter

How many times have you tried to obey in your own
strength and failed? I have good news for you. You
can stop trying.
God, in the Old Testament gave HIs poeple many
commandments and they were never able to
keep them. Does God ask us to do the impossible?
No, He doesn't leave it up to us

In Deuteronomy 30:14 it says, "the word is very
near unto you, in your mouth and in your heart,
that you may do it.:". In the New Testament in
Romans 10:8 the same words are used and
then it goes on to say, "that is the word of
faith which we preach." The next verses refer
to the Lord Jesus Christ.

""If you shall confess with your mouth the Lord
Jesus and shall believe in your heart that God
has raised him from the dead, you shall be saved.
For with the heart man believes unto righteousness
and with the mouth confession is made unto
salvation." Romans 10:9-10

When you believe in your heart the Lord Jesus Christ,
God's Son died for your sins and rose again from
the dead and ask Him to save you , you have
God's laws written in your heart.. Jesus is the
liviing Word of God and He came to fulfill the
law. When you ask the Lord Jesus to save you,
He comes int to do what you cannot do in your
own strength.

Wil you stop trying to obey and please God in your
own strength? Let the Lord Jesus save you from
your old disobedient nature and give you a new heart
where His obedience reigns.
