RESTING 24/7 VS GOING NOWHERE FAST
"Stand by the roads and look to see where the roads lead and then ask for
the eternal paths, where the good, old way is; then walk in it, and you will
find rest for your souls." Jeremiah 6:16 Faster, is a built in challenge for
everyone. "Did you see how fast he did that? WOW!" It's a total deception, based
on nothing. To get there faster than everyone else and then wait for the rest to
get there, is senseless but millions do it! Then when second in line arrives,
you say, I beat you! But the second in line was resting in the journey and had
no idea you were trying to beat him.
The serious part of the matter is you won a race that only you were running
and there was no reward, but the one that walked in after you enjoyed the
journey and continued to enjoy a life of rest. Remaining in rest does not mean,
your are lazy, or boring or not on the cutting edge. It means you are going to
endure to the end and be saved, because you are taking time to look where all
the roads lead, and saying NO, and allowing Me to direct your down My path.
Matthew 24:13
Run, run, run, go, go, go, do more, do more, do more, and then find out it
was all for nothing, because all the time I was on a different road. Wow you
just wasted your life doing good things, but not a God thing! If you must take
time out for something I want done, STOP! Think a moment! what are you taking
time out from? Your busy life of running nowhere for nothing, but wow just
think, at least you are ahead of everybody else! Anything that does not have an
eternal purpose is a complete waste of your short time on earth!
Don't be deceived into running a race in the wrong direction, doing good
things that have no eternal reward! Come to Me, all you that labour and are
heavy laden, running everywhere to get nowhere first, and I will give you rest.
[29] Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart, I
am never in a rush: and you shall find rest unto your souls. [30] For My road is
easy, and My burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30 KJV
There
remains a rest for My people, [10] and he that is entered into My rest, has
ceased from his own works, doing good things, as I did from Mine. [11] You must
labour against the deception of doing, doing, doing, in order to enter into My
rest, or eventually you will fall in exhaustion, saying what's the use and stop
believing." Hebrews 4:9-11
