SPIRITUAL
DIARY
Date: 01-27-03
My
Worship Time Focus: Entering God’s rest
Bible
Reading & Meditation Reference: Hebrews 4:3
1. Message of the verse: “For we who have believed do enter that rest,
as He has said: ‘So I swore in My wrath, ‘They shall not enter My rest,’
although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.” (NKJV)
“For only we who believe can enter His place of rest. As for those who didn’t believe God said, ‘In
My anger I made a vow: They will never enter
my place of rest,’ even though His place of rest has been ready since He made
the world.” (NKJV)
As stated
in the last spiritual diary it takes faith to enter into God’s rest whichever
rest that is describes still takes faith.
It takes faith to enter into the rest of salvation and it takes faith to
enter the rest of walking with the Lord in His power. God has finished the rest from the foundation
of the world. God had purposed this rest
in eternity past just like the rest when He had finished creating the world.
2.
Spiritual meaning for my life today: It takes faith in the Lord to enter this rest
and faith must also have actions or works on our part to be able to enter this
rest. Just like it would have taken the
children of Israel to walk into the promised land in order to enter that rest,
whenever God has something for me to do I must begin to do it and then trust
the Lord to see me through doing it by His power and strength.
The Word of God was refreshing to me today and it was also
convicting.
My
Steps of Faith Today: To trust the
Lord to get me through the things that He would have me to do today whatever
they may be.
Memory verse for the week:
Philippians 2:5
Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus.
