God won't back down.

Ezekiel 39:25 "Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I will now bring Jacob back from captivity and will have compassion on all the people of Israel, and I will be zealous for my holy name."

Since God is zealous for His holy name, what can we do if we step out in faith to glorify God? I mean God is saying He will have compassion on the people of Isreal (Prince/Princes of God), and be zealous for His holy name. People who are zealous to serve God will do whatever they can to give God glory, and I think the key here is that God will help those who step out in faith to give glory to His holy name.

Ezekiel 39:29 "I will no longer hide my face from them, for I will pour out my Spirit on the house of Israel, declares the Sovereign LORD.". Since God won't hide His face from those who are His prince, and princess, He's given us His spirit and with the authority of His spirit, we should be stepping out knowing that God won't back down when we stand up for Him first.

Dear God,
Thank you for this Scripture. Help me to be zealous in giving glory to your holy name. You've just given me the key right here, I pray that you'll give me confident when I step up to bring glory to your holy name. Don't back down when I step up for you, because you said that you are zealous for your holy name. I pray that I'll do it all humbly and not pridefully.
In Jesus Name Amen.
