    Our rest based in the finished work of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Let us hold fast our profession and come boldly to the throne of grace.

    ENTERING REST AND FINDING GRACE. Hebrews 4:1-16. “Let us therefore fear” links this passage with the previous chapter. It has to do with the promise of “entering into His rest”, “lest any of you should seem to come short of it” (Hebrews 4:1). The promise of entering the promised land was ...read more

    Learning to look for God’s will

    Let me share with you some statistics from 1992. The New Republic in its January 27 issue reported that the number of products in a typical supermarket in 92 was some 30,000.

     | 3,026 views

    Not the people around you or with you but it is only the presence of God that would give you rest.

    I will give you Rest Psalm 116:7”Return to your rest, O my soul, For the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.” Early one morning while I was reading the Bible , this scripture spoke to me really deep!

     | 4,102 views

    The word ‘rest’ does not exist anymore in an era where people believe in working 24/7, the hoarding brags: ‘we work round the clock and open all the days of the week!’ Imagine!

    Parking Space! Isaiah 30:15”For thus says the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel: " In returning and rest you shall be saved; In quietness and confidence shall be your strength." The word ‘rest’ does not exist anymore in an era where people believe in working 24/7, the hoarding ...read more

    Just Get Some Rest

    Contributed by Michael Vaughn on Aug 16, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,875 views

    Rest, rest, rest. This is what I was told after my heart attck at age 34. It’s one thing to be told what you need to do, it’s another thing to be shown where the answer is.

    Just Get Some Rest! It’s funny that one of my favorite Bible verses, John 14:27, mentions the word “heart”. You see, I had a heart attack a couple of weeks ago, and that is one verse that I have been continually going back to. The KJV reads, “Let not your heart be troubled: neither let it be ...read more

    True prayer is based in the covenant and promises of God, which He has given us in Christ Jesus.

    A RESTING PLACE FOR THE ARK OF GOD. Psalm 132. King David, ‘the man after God’s own heart’ (Acts 13:22), wanted to bring the ark-of-the-covenant up to Jerusalem. ‘We consulted it not in the days of Saul,’ he reasonably reasoned (1 Chronicles 13:3). However, even our best intentions fall short ...read more

     | 33,363 views

    In spite of the fact that Jesus paid it all for us on the cross, people continue to struggle, trying to earn the Christian life. If that is your situation today, I plead with you to stop trying, and start trusting. Be diligent to enter into that rest.

    HOW TO ENTER GOD’S REST Hebrews 4:11-16 "Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of disobedience." "Come unto me, all ye that labor 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 ...read more

    Only Jesus gives the rest we long for and the redemption we need.

    Palm Sunday is a day of paradox. Crowds shout “Hosanna!” but miss the King they’re praising. Palm branches wave in celebration of the freedom they hoped Jesus would bring, but He rides in on a donkey, not a war horse. The people longed for deliverance from Rome, but Jesus came to deliver their ...read more

     | 1,063 views

    We can experience God’s presence outside of us, and within us. God isn’t far off. He’s so close we can hardly imagine it. Many feel God is far off. They wonder… Can you really experience God? Can you really sense God’s presence? Can you really know God deeply? The answer to those 3 questions is yes.

    Good morning, church! Today, we’re diving into one of the most comforting invitations in all of Scripture. Jesus says in Matthew 11:28, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Does that word rest sound good to you today? I don’t know about you, but I ...read more

    The Christian faith, after all, is deeply personal. When we abide in Christ, we rest in God.

    OUR REST ONLY IN GOD. Psalm 84:1-4. At the end of the celebration of Passover, in Jewish homes scattered throughout the world, the parting toast is, ‘Next year in Jerusalem!’ The sentiment echoes a common consciousness, a restlessness if you will, which is forever drawing God’s people back ...read more
