5 Steps to Experiencing God's Rest - Part I

I was watching one of my favorite preachers the other day and he was
teaching on "5 Steps to Experiencing God's Rest" and I thought I would
pass on some of the things I learned.

Hebrews 4:9-11 says:
9 There remains, then, a Sabbeth rest for the people of God; 10 for
anyone who enters God's rest also rests from his own work, just as
God did from his. 11 Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that
rest, so that no one will fall by following their example of disobedience.

(Wow! If we aren't resting we are in disobedience? Think on that one.)

So the first point is:
1. Sit Down - Because the Word has everything covered.
Ps. 110:1,4a:
1 The Lord says to my Lord:
"Sit at my right hand
until I make your enemies
a footstool for your feet"
4 The Lord has sworn
and will not change his mind

Hebrews 4:12-13
12 For the word of God is living and active, Sharper than any double-
edge sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and
marrow; it judges tha thoughts and attitudes of the heart. 13 Nothing
in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is
uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom
we must give account.

So my question to you is, can you Sit Down and trust that God has
everything covered in your life? He knows right where you are. He
knows what you are going through and He has everything under control.
All you have to do is Sit Down and trust (rest) in Him.

Because the Word has everything covered!

Believe God,
