    Ezekiel 36:27

    "And I will put my spirit within you, and CAUSE you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.

    CAUSE. Means to make or to bring forth.

    KEEP. (shamar)

    A primitive root; properly to hedge about (as with {thorns}) that {is} guard; generally to {protect} attend {to} etc.: - {beware} be {circumspect} take heed (to {self}) keep ({-er} {self}) {mark} look {narrowly} {observe} {preserve} {regard} {reserve} save ({self}) {sure} (that lay) wait ({for}) watch (-man).

    KJV Usage: keep(283x), observe(46x), heed(35x), keeper(28x), preserve(21x), beware(9x), mark(8x), watchman(8x), wait(7x), watch(7x), regard(5x), save(2x), misc(9x).

    Occurs: 468

    In verses: 440.

    Here we notice "obey" is omitted.

    This is directed to the heart of man that LEADS to obedience.

    We're not perfect but that what you do obey is persuaded.

    John 15:4-5 reads

    "Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

    I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

    Paul describes this battle of this persuasion in these fleshly bodies in Romans 7.

    This is what the Holyspirit does!

    Jesus carried the Apostles and when he went away he sent them another Comforter. .

    They wasn't prepared for ministry until then. .

    God bless.
