The Lord Almighty planned it, to bring low the plans of all glory & to humble all who are renowned on earth. (Isaiah 23:9). This is a prophecy about Tyre. It's still applicable to us in today's time.

The Holy Spirit, however, gives us new desires, helping us wanting to obey God. With new hearts, hearts of flesh & not hearts of stone, we will find that serving God is our greatest joy. Under God's new covenant, God's law is inside us & not outside, ie, on a tablet of stone. No, it's written in our hearts. It is no longer an external set of rules & principles. The Holy Spirit reminds us of Christ's words, activates our ...
