RESTING IN THE LORD

Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him...ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls...And it shall come to pass ...that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy fear, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve...Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls....Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee...For we which have believed do enter into rest. For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his...the Spirit of the LORD caused him to rest

(Psa. 37:7;Jer. 6:16;Isa. 14:3;Matt. 11:28-29;Psa. 116:7;Heb. 4:3-10;Isa. 63:14)

THOUGHT

“We enter into His rest not by striving after faith, but by resting on the Faithful One.”
