Work Is Done; Rest in Him
There remains therefore a rest for the people of God.
~ Hebrews 4:9
"God has provided a Sabbath, and it remains for the people of God to enter into it.
Come, then, let us labor to enter into this rest. Let us cease from our own works, as God did from His. Let us find solace in the finished work of our Lord Jesus. Everything is fully done: justice demands no more. Great peace is our portion in Christ Jesus.
As to the work of grace in the soul, and the work of the Lord in the souls of others, let us cast these burdens upon the Lord and rest in Him. When the Lord gives us a yoke to bear, He does so that by taking it up we may find rest. By faith we labor to enter into the rest of God, and we renounce all rest in self-satisfaction or indolence. Jesus Himself is perfect rest, and we are filled to the brim in Him." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
Thank You Lord, for allowing us to be able to rest on Your Sabbath day, for I think that everyone needs to take the time to rest from their duties and spend a little time in praise and worship with You.I pray for all the lost souls of the nations. I pray for the protection of Your Son's precious blood over all of Your children and that when the enemy comes seeking to find Your children to devour them up that we all will be hiden under Your Wings for protection. Thank You Lord for giving us the oppertunity to be able to have freedom of choice.This I pray in Christ Jesus' Precious Name, Amen!
