Using the clock and ladder model, I'll explain what God has laid on my heart. The clock represents God's nature of love and righteousness, while the ladder symbolizes the law of Moses. We, as humans, are like three-year-olds. The law instructs us to pick up the ladder, place it against the wall, climb up, and reach the clock. However, for a three-year-old, this is impractical, leading to repeated falls in attempts to pick up the ladder. Similarly, when we try to obey the law, we often fall back into our sinful nature, as it's impossible for us to fully fulfill the law. In this analogy, the Holy Spirit plays the role of the father of the three-year-old child. The Holy Spirit, being tall enough, can take the clock from the wall, give it to the child, and teach them how to use it. The Holy Spirit instills new desires, encourages us to walk in love and righteousness, and helps us produce good fruits without the need to climb the ladder.
