Many of My people are unprepared mentally, physically, and
emotionally for the increased stress that is taking place
in the earth. Did you know, “there remains a stress free
rest for My people to enter into. 10 Whoever enters into
My rest, has ceased from his own works, as I did from Mine
after I finished creation. 11 However every believer must
labor to enter into that rest, or you will be another
example of unbelief,” Hebrews 4:9-11.
My rest is a three part rest.
1st. Rest in what I have done.
2nd. Rest in what I am doing.
3rd. Rest in what I am going to do.
All of these 3 rests demand faith in My character. That I
AM a God who loves and cares for His people. A God that
cannot lie, or fail.
Most find their rest in what I have already done, because
that demands the least faith, but the enemy will try to
tell you it was only a coincidence and not My faithfulness.
This first rest is what gives the majority of believers
strength to survive the presence, but surviving is a stress
filled life, filled with pressure. However resting in what
I did in the past, will not give you the faith to rest in
what I promised to do in the future.
The first thing you must do to enter the present day rest,
is REORGANIZE!
Every change in your life demands a reorganization of your
life in some way. For instance, if you get married, a
major reorganization must take place, or a divorce is in
your future. If you want to write a book, you must
reorganize your life to make time to write, or it will
never get published.
Most great endeavors and dreams fail because people do not
reorganize their lives to accommodate the endeavor. In
order to enter into My rest in the present you must
reorganize your life to match the oncoming stress. For
instance reorganize by dropping any activities, or
relationships, that do not move you toward My rest.
Replace them with increased time waiting in My presence and
new activities and relationships that help move you into My
rest. Do not hang with worry warts, or fearful people.
But to enter into My rest for the future is different, and
more difficult, because it demands labor, great labor on
your part. The society you live in demands that you plan
for the future, down to the finest detail, and you must
fight night and day against friends, and family, preachers
and co workers and even society itself.
There is only one way and that’s My way, to enter the third
part of My rest. Here it is: “Take no thought for your
life, what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet
for your body, what you will put on. Is not the life more
than meat, and the body than raiment? 31 Therefore take no
thought, saying, What will we eat? or, What will we drink?
or, how will we be clothed? 33 If you will, seek first My
kingdom, and My righteousness; you can rest in the fact
that I will provide all these things you need,” Matthew
6:25,31,33.
You cannot reorganize for what you do not know is coming,
therefore you must not think about it, and rest in faith
that I have everything prepared, if you are seeking My
kingdom first. Because the labor is so great, fighting
against everyone you know, all calling you foolish and
irresponsible, most will not enter into My rest, until they
die, then your friends will say, rest in peace.
If you do things My way, you can rest in peace now.
