For it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure. Philippians 2:13
God is at work in me and you. What great news! We have been called to duty—to work out our salvation (v.12) with the confidence that God is working in us to accomplish His good pleasure. He is calling us, sanctifying us, and abiding in us so that all His purposes will be accomplished.
God moves powerfully to produce what He demands. That is the incredible mystery of Christian living, that God is effecting in the believer what He is commanding to the believer.
He’s not working on you, He’s not working for you,
He is working in you. What a profound reality.
—John MacArthur
