For some time now the Lord has been leading me into His rest. You know we’ve heard it said that in His rest we have fullness of joy and the joy of the Lord is our strength so linking these things must be essential for us to live in His Rest… I am naming the place Rest, but also, I think if we dig deep here, we will find the Person of Rest in whom we rest and in that secret place we will know His rest. The things of the Kingdom are foolishness to those who are perishing… the things of the world are foolishness to those of the Kingdom… let’s ask Holy Spirit to open our eyes to the things of His Kingdom as the book of James says James 1:27 “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”, so, “we ask You Holy Spirit right now to keep us from the things of this world and to serve those who are less privileged around us, keep us Father from the things that are not of Your kingdom and seal us into Your Kingdom, I pray in Jesus mighty name, Amen!
I will post here the relevant articles as and when the Lord leads me, but let’s remind ourselves multiple times a week that we need to take time away from the crowd, as Jesus did, and draw near to the Lord and find our seat at His banqueting table, but we need to live in and from this place of rest.
