Day 39 Rest On The Seventh Day

Day 39

Daily Bible Reading Schedule

Exodus 35-37

Exodus 35:1

These are the things, God commanded you to do. 

Exodus 35:2-3

For 6 days, work is to be done, on the 7th day shall be your Holy Day.  The Sabbath is rest for the Lord.  Do not light any fire in your dwelling on the Sabbath day.

Again, God tells His people not to work or to even light a fire on the Sabbath.  We are to nothing but rest on the Sabbath, but how many really obey this command?  I am guilty on this one also, I believe we all are.

Observing the Sabbath is not just about going to church.  Think about how many Christians go out for lunch after church, are rude to the waitress?  Christians are the worse tippers and the rudest customers. 

We are to nothing on the Sabbath,  No cooking, shopping, driving.  we are to stay home and worship our Lord and rest.

So if you are tired, stressed and too busy, it is your fault, not God's fault.

God tells us to work 6 days and rest on the 7th. 

This world is not doing what God has commanded. 

In the United States of America, stores are open 24 hours a day.  People work around the clock.  They are stressed, sick, broke, and exhausted, but it is their own fault.

They are not living the way God has commanded us to live.
