Ezekiel 36:27 (NKJV)
“I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do [them.] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The question put forth is;

‘Would God promise to do something for one, that one could do for oneself ?’

Seeing the answer to this question puts one in the proper state of heart before God... A constant looking to Him to do something for one, that one cannot do for oneself....

This is a most humbling place, yet again, a most freeing place, and a most blessed place... This is the place of the receiving from God... The heart that would grab unto this place, is a heart that most assuredly will meet God and be blessed by Him...

It is seeing that one can not, but also seeing, that it still must be done in one’s life, that this place, if maintained in faith, will see one walking in this newness of life, where the law is fulfilled in one, but not by one...

Be blessed in the finding of such a place, for a place of rest in faith it is indeed...

Good point.

Romans 8:4-11 says that the saints walking in the Spirit obey the Word of God meanwhile the lost who are not born again and are without the Spirit "do not submit to the Law of God - neither indeed CAN they"

The New Covenant of Jer 31:31-34 and Hebrews 8:6-12 "writes the LAW of God on the heart and mind" and is unchanged from OT to NT.

Hello, be so blessed in the experiencing of these truths, as God works them inwardly...

Would like to even go as far to share this scripture here which is a promise that we are able to do through faith and belief on God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Hebrews 4:

14 Seeing then that we have a great High Priest (Jesus Christ) who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.

15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses (He can!), but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.

16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Thanks for the scriptures, yes by faith in Christ Jesus we are to walk...

Be blessed in your walking before Him..

Dear one,
I believe that is the grace of God what we heard in Ezekiel 36:27. I am glad that you quoted it. We can see clearly the truth that God helps us, His people.

Dear one,
when things that I don’t understand in the Bible ! I constantly remind myself of this truth that the Lord have said in John 8:31-32.
So what I understand that we just need to yield to the truth. And the Lord will help us.
