THE DAILY BLUEPRINT FOR 11-27-06

HEBREWS WALK #51

HEBREWS 4:8&9
For if Jesus had given them rest, then would He not afterward have spoken of another day? There remains a rest for the people of God.


When JESUS came into our hearts and saved us - He brought us so much more then just salvation - He brought us true peace- and hope for tomorrow- He brought us joy and grace -that sees us through each day after we are His - once we belong to Him -He will give to us HIS rest- this is not like the world's idea of rest is at all - the world thinks that means you can do as you please -but when you come to know JESUS - you will only want to please Him - sure our human side will show its face -but most of the time we want His will to be done -there is rest in this - when you rest -you cannot worry -you cannot pick up what God has in His hands - rest means we must stop and be still - we must wait upon the Lord -and HE will renew our strength! He gives us rest- both now and forever more - the world that we now know is one in which we must work - God says in HIS word that if you don't work - you don't eat -but this must be taken with the words of JESUS when HE said that He will provide for the birds of the air and the flowers of the field -so why not for us? God gives us everything we have - and the remarkable thing is He gives to those who do not know Him yet- we all were in that same boat -when we try it on our own apart from God there is no rest -there may be some breaks - but never a rest! Lets find rest in JESUS - true rest- a rest that restores us to the Father - in fills our hearts with thanksgiving!
The LORD wants to give us rest - lets stop whatever we are doing and just worship HIM - then and only then will we have rest!
amen!

A side note: Many of us go and go never stopping much and yet the WORD of GOD says to be still and know that HE is God - how can we when we are always on the go - God wants us to stop and smell the roses - this life is short -He wants us to live it for HIM! amen! Lets take the time this week to get to know God a little more! Then we will have rest!

With CHRIST we have rest!
