Philippians 2:12-13
Excerpted from: Psalm 51 (Part Four): Psalm 51:13-19

And so he says, "Restore to me the joy of Your salvation." Help him to get over this great crater that he had found himself in so that he could start again, so that he could move forward in his life. He knew that he could not do it on his own if he did not have God to give him a boost somehow through His, as he calls it here, generous spirit or His willing spirit. I like it willing a little bit better because it shows God's willingness to help when we are at our lowest. But he knew that if God did not help, he would remain in that crater forever. He could never get out of it. Which reminds me of Philippians 2:12-13, "Work out your own salvation in fear and trembling" because God is doing His work in you to finish your salvation here.

We can never forget that we are not the one actually putting in the most in our salvation process. God is always the fueling us and we are just responding to Him and what He wants for us. Hopefully we are responding in joy. That this is the way we want to go and that we want to have that deep relationship with Him and we are then cooperating with Him.

Philippians 2:12-13
Excerpted from: Grace Upon Grace

I think that we ought to be able to see now that the grace of God, as it is taught in the Bible, is dynamic. It is not just a passive forgiveness, but also empowerment, given freely of God, not that we might just merely be saved, but also that we might overcome and become like He is.
