English Christian Song | "God Eagerly Wants Those Who Can Follow His Will"
September 22, 2024
I
As God's work and plan ceaselessly progressed,
and after God established the covenant of the rainbow with man,
as a sign that He would never again destroy the world using floods,
God had an increasingly pressing desire
to gain those who could be of one mind with Him.
So, too, did He have an ever more urgent wish to gain
those who were able to follow His will on earth,
and, moreover, to gain a group of people
able to break free from the forces of darkness and not be bound by Satan,
a group that would be able to bear testimony to Him on earth.
II
Gaining such a group of people was God's long-held wish,
it was what He had been waiting for ever since the time of creation.
Thus, regardless of God's use of floods to destroy the world,
or of His covenant with man,
God's intention, frame of mind, plan, and hopes all remained the same.
What He wanted to do,
the thing that He had yearned for long before the time of creation,
was to gain those among mankind whom He wished to gain—
to gain a group of people
able to comprehend and know His disposition and understand His intentions,
a group who would be able to worship Him.
Such a group of people truly would be able to bear testimony to Him,
and it can be said that they would be His confidants.
