Isaiah 43:24 God did everything

God prepares the way for you, when there is no way. He makes a way before you even knew there was a need. The new testament says it this way, that before we were found, God left the 99 to search for us, while we were still in rebellion.  So roll up your sleeves, put your mind in gear, be totally ready to receive the gift that’s coming when Jesus arrives. Don’t lazily slip back into those old grooves of evil, doing just what you feel like doing. You didn’t know any better then; you do now. As obedient children, let yourselves be pulled into a way of life shaped by God’s life, a life energetic and blazing with holiness. God said, “I am holy; you be holy. [1 Peter 1:13-16]
