On the eve of the Sabbath. God wants to give you rest. He wants to refresh and restore your soul mind, will and emotions. It’s so easy to get caught up in the “busyness” of life, and before long, your mind, will and emotions are so “spun up” that you can barely think straight! But even in the hustle of life, you can find rest, ease and relaxation. God wants to take care of everything that concerns you so that you can find rest in your innermost being when you come to Him.
The Sabbath is more than just sleeping, it’s about releasing what’s bothering you. Imagine how you would feel if someone approached you today and said, “Give me all of your monthly bills; I’m going to pay them.” You’d get excited, wouldn’t you? But it wouldn’t happen until you did your part to actually hand that person your bills. They can’t pay them for you if you never release them. In the same way, when we release our cares and concerns to God, He promises to take care of them.
Today, as we approach the sabbath/rest, release your cares to the Lord. Let Him fill you with His peace and joy. Receive the rest that He promises and enjoy the fulfillment and blessing He has for you!
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. (Hebrews 4:9-10).
Let’s Pray
Yahweh, today I humbly come to You. I choose to cast my cares on You so that I can live in Your rest, not only on sabbath but daily. Father, thank You for Your goodness to me. Help me find ways to share Your goodness with those around me today, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
