Rest awaits us when we come to God and get into His Ark of Safety
But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark. -Genesis 8:9 we find many times that God gave His people rest from war in His Word. He wants to give us rest today in our struggles.
Every one needs rest. In God's Word we read, “And he said, my presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest”. -Exodus 33:14 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. Psalm 37: 7 Unto whom I swore in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest. Psalm 95: 11 We don't want to grieve God as the Children of Israel did for forty years in the wilderness. Our rest can be lost through unbelief. Heb. 4: 5-11
seems we are so busy in life. God wants us to rest and rest in Him. Remember the word which Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, saying, The LORD your God hath given you rest, and have given you this land. -Joshua 1: 13 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! For then would I fly away, and be at rest. Psalm 55: 6
There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin. Psalm 38: 3 Beware of sin in our life. We will find no rest then. Return unto thy rest, O my soul for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee. Psalm 116: 7 I urge you to daily enter into the Presence of God to have your heart, soul and mind renewed by His Love.
This is my rest forever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it. Psalm 132: 14 Come to God and He will give you rest. All who are heavy burdened
And burdened down with earthly cares and worries,
Come to God and find rest. Matthew 11:28
