Rest In Action
The rest of God is obtained by obedience to whatever God’s telling you to do. Our obedience to God’s commandments will lead us into God’s rest. His rest is a place of refreshing, and comfort, and safety. There’s a fight to enter into this rest that God supplies. Our enemy knows of it, and Satan knows if we find this truth, it will hamper his plans of stealing, killing, and trying to destroy us, which is the devil’s ultimate goal (1 Peter 5:8). The rest of God provides an invisible shield to the natural eye, but very visible in the spirit realm where Satan and his cohorts are, along with God and His Angels. In this natural realm, earth, we have at our disposal the weapons that are mighty through God to the pulling down of enemy strongholds (2 Corinthians 10:4). Knowing how to wield our arsenal of God given weapons is vital to help protect the Rest of God we obtain, because it’s a fight to keep it as well (Ephesians 6:10-17). This rest of God will never be obtained if there is unbelief in the camp. Like Israel in the wilderness for 40 years, their unbelief caused them to not enter into God’s rest, neither did some of them enter into the promise land God was taking them to. Make every effort to enter into God’s rest, and begin to breathe in the freedom of a less stressful and less combative season in your life.
