Warrior,
Good morning, hard to believe another week has passed. I hope it was a productive one. Today's message "The Sabbath" For many years I walked in faith with very little understanding and no knowledge outside of what I have been taught. Today, that has changed, our God has placed a desire on my heart to know him and understand who He is and what He desires.
Through this time of seeking I have learned about God's appointed time of Sabbath and His instructions of how we are to rest and reflect on Him. Just think for a moment when God created the heavens and the earth, He assigned a number to each day, day1 day2, day3, day4, day5, day6. But on the seventh day He assigned a name to it "The Sabbath - a day in which our God appointed for rest and reflection on Him. A day that His children are to observe. For it was so important to Him that He assigned it as what we know to be the Fourth Commandment "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it Holy." He is not asking us to do it, He is commanding that we do it.
For many years I thought that this was for the Jews only, but again in my seek to under mission, I have learned that the Ten Commandments also known as the Decalogue, are a set of biblical laws relating to ethics and worship, which play a fundamental role in both Judaism and Christianity. For when we follow the instructions of our God and obey Him, this is what separates us from the world. I encourage you to learn about the Sabbath and discover God's view of how the Sabbath is to be observed. Gaining this knowledge and understanding has helped me to come out of the race of life and be refreshed both physically and spiritually. I pray that our God will place that same desire on your heart as He did mine. For this has been a life changing experience. Have a GREAT weekend and I hope that you make time to come out of the race of life, to be refreshed and to give thanks to our God for all He has done throughout your week. May you discover a peace that surpasses all understanding. "His Peace"
“For thus says the LORD, To the palace official who keep My sabbaths, and choose what pleases Me, and hold fast My covenant, To them I will give in my house and within My walls a memorial, And a name better than that of sons and daughters, I will give them an everlasting name which will not be cut off. ”
