ENTER HIS REST

“Today, if you will hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts.’
For if Joshua had given them rest, then He would not afterward have spoken of another day. 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 4:7b-10 NKJ).”

I can only imagine God’s rest after completing His creation work…SEPTEMBER 2014 002

I perceive Psalmist, King David’s rest, as conveyed through his words of Psalm 23.

I rejoice in Christ Jesus; He freed me from a salvation by works, inviting me to enter His rest.

“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast (Ephesians 2:8-9 NKJ).”

    Such an encouraging word for the end of the workweek. I think resting feels best after I’ve completed a project or done a hard day’s work…and I’ve never done anything as huge as creating a world.
