Episode 390 - Show Notes:
- In addition to the spiritual warfare we face as believers, you and I live in a fallen, broken world. We experience uncertainty, fear, stress, anxiety, and pressure. I wonder if today you need God to bring rest to your soul
- Jesus invites us to come to him. He is the one who can provide the rest our souls so desperately need. If we could only see this. If we could stop for a moment, if we could leave our work, our ambitions, and our striving. If we could push pause on our anger, our frustrations, and our anxiety we could come to Jesus.
- When we come to Jesus we must realize he alone can satisfy the deep longings of our hearts. People can’t. Work can’t. Success and money certainly cannot. Accomplishments leaves us wanting more. The deep rest our souls need can only be met by Jesus.
- We come to him in worship. We recognize this sovereignty and his lordship. We worship him for who he is, not just what he does. We bring glory and honor to his name.
- We come to him in surrender. We yield, not only our time, talents, and treasure to Jesus, but we give him our very lives.
- It’s here that a great exchange takes place. He takes our burdens and give us peace and rest for our souls.
Psalm 62:1 - “Truly my soul finds rest in God; my salvation comes from him.”
Matthew 11:28-29 - “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.“
