ENTER HIS REST WHILE ON EARTH
8th August, 2023
“There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.” Hebrews 4:9 (KJV)
There can be no truth without the Holy Bible. Anything the Holy Bible addresses is coming from the heart of the Almighty God, so let us not downplay His written Word. If today’s scripture says there still remains a rest to the people of God, believe it and meditate on it as a child of God. During your meditation, ask God what He means by rest for His people. Some call this rest a Sabbath rest; the Sabbath was a day set aside by God for the Israelites to cease from all their work in order to relax, refresh their bodies, and worship God (Exodus 20:8–11). It is true that the rest in today’s reading refers to
heaven, where the righteous souls go to after departing from the earth through death (Revelation 21:4). However, Christians can have
rest in Christ Jesus while on the earth; it is a place in Christ Jesus
designed for the spiritually mature, where you literally don’t struggle in life for food, shelter, clothing, a job, marriage, peace, joy, money, living a holy life, etc., because God has enabled you to have them. We enter this rest when we follow Jesus Christ closely and serve and live in obedience to Him. Hallelujah! Enter His rest! Be An Overcomer!
PRAYER POINTS
1) Dear heavenly Father, thank you for your Word. Please
enable me and lead me to your rest on the earth even before
enjoying your greater rest in heaven, in Jesus name.
2) As I enter in your rest, my God, may you enable me to have
all what I need according to your word, in Jesus name.
3) Let it be unto me according to your word LORD, and may
you make me an overcomer in Christ Jesus Christ.
