Live in the light of God (Isaiah 2:5) 

Ezekiel 36:25-30 The Voice

25 I will sprinkle you with clean water, and you will be clean. I will wash away all of your dirtiness, and you will be clean and pure, free from the taint of idols. 26 I will plant a new heart and new spirit inside of you. I will take out your stubborn, stony heart and give you a willing, tender heart of flesh. 27 And I will put My Spirit inside of you and inspire you to live by My statutes and follow My laws. 28 Then you will live in the same land I gave your ancestors; you will be My people, and I will be your God. 29-30 I will rescue you from your impurity. I will summon the grain to produce large harvests and never bring a famine upon you again. I will increase your harvests of fruit and grain so that you will never have to face the disgrace of famine again among the nations.

For Reflection

Israel had been disobedient. After a period of exile. God institutes a new covenant of grace and forgiveness. God promises to put God's spirit inside each person and transform their hearts. 

Listening to the Holy Spirit will guide your life of obedience to follow the law.

Pray

Pray, and let the Holy Spirit guide your life. Pray, "Create a clean heart in me oh God, and renew a right spirit within me." (ps 51:10)
