Not by strength, nor by power but by My Spirit!

For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His.” Hebrews 4:10

God created the heavens and the earth and all living things in six days and He rested on the seventh day.

The promise of entering into the rest of God is available to all who believe in God. You cease from striving through life drawing upon your own resources and enter into a faith relationship with God.

You walk by faith trusting God to meet all your needs. In essence, you surrender to God and allow Him to carry you through life.

This transformation takes place at the moment you make a decision for Jesus. Your natural life dies and you become a new person. You take on the life of Jesus in the form of the Holy Spirit. You enter the invisible world of God and your life now revolves around trusting God to meet your every need.

What makes God angry is when you fall into unbelief and change from trusting God to returning to your old natural life. This caused most of the Israelites to die in the desert and to be denied the promises of God.

It is impossible for God to lie and He has made a promise to you for an abundant life and to bless the desires of your heart. You can only inherit this promise by faith in the Son of God.

Your faith becomes vulnerable when troubles arises in your life. You look at your life and begin to judge God by your circumstances. The secret is to keep your eyes on Jesus and not the conditions of your life.

Rest in God! He will never let you down!
