Today's Scripture *August 18, 2008*
Hebrews 4: 6-7
So God’s rest is there for people to enter, but those who first heard this good news failed to enter because they disobeyed God.
So God set another time for entering his rest, and that time is today. God announced this through David much later in the words already quoted:
“Today when you hear his voice, don't harden your hearts.”
God had given the Israelites the opportunity to enter Canaan, but they disobeyed and failed to enter (Numbers 13 & 14).
Now God offers us the opportunity to enter His ultimate place of rest--He invites us to come to Christ. To enter His rest, you must believe that God has this relationship in mind for you; you must stop trying to create it; you must trust Christ for it; and you must determine to obey Him. Today is the best time to find peace with God. Tomorrow may be too late!
Thank You Jesus for giving us rest like no one else can!
Nothing can provide for us the peace and love that You alone do!
Thank You for offering us this eternal rest and peace!
May we live our lives today with thankful hearts. In Jesus' Name, Amen..
Have a truly blessed week!
In Christ our Lord,
April
