“There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His.” Hebrews 4:9-10
The Word from God today is to rest in Him.
The rest of Christ is not about idleness or ignoring the responsibilities of life. It is living through the Spirit of Christ and rejecting human striving or efforts of self sufficiency.
The rest of Christ is acknowledging the Creator of the heavens and earth and entering into His rest.
In reality, the works of God are finished. So it is just a matter of living by faith in what God has created for you and me.
The rest of God is living with confidence in Christ and not wavering in fear or doubt because of what you see with your eyes.
This rest comes through the work of the Cross. The resurrected power of Christ is your lifeline to wisdom, strength, security, and healing. When Jesus died on the Cross it was complete in meeting your every need.
God wants to equip you today to meet your every challenge. Just ask and you will receive!
The impediment to living with Christ is fear and doubt. We doubt because we believe (or accept) what we see and reject the promises of God which come by faith.
Fear suffocates your faith in Christ. You and I need deep roots into the life of Christ to survive in this world. Pray you can be grounded in Christ through His Word and the Holy Spirit.
Today the world will attempt to destroy your faith and lead you away from Christ. Stand firm in the Living Christ. He lives so you can live!
