The Rest of God Will Calm the Overactive Mind

‭To enter God’s rest, we must cease from our own works of human labor. Weariness and pain can come from human Labor as most people know. We can retire from physical labor and enter into the rest that only God can give. God rested (looked back on His creation to appreciate and enjoy what He created Genesis 2:2), He was not weary from work, He’s not human. He has retired from the labor of creation long ago and has made available to us the Rest of God, which is to stop laboring and just enjoy our achievements in life for a time. We can get into a habitual mental loop of having to keep things going all the time which creates in us a mental stronghold that won’t allow us to rest. You know what I speak of in the midnight hour. You can’t sleep because of it, your mind keeps going and going and going when it’s time to go to bed. The Rest of God can break those horrible sleepless nights of unwanted mental activity. The reason people do not enter the rest of God is because of unbelief (Hebrews 3:18-19). Obedience to the Lord’s commands always plays a major part in receiving anything from God. Entering into the Rest of God is totally dependent upon us, each person. There are certain benefits from God that are automatically inserted into your life simply by obeying the Lord and His wishes. Learn of Him and watch all things change for your good.
