A Personal Sabbath Rest IS CHRIST’S PRESCRIPTION FOR HEALING THE HURRY SICKNESS OF THE 21ST CENTURY CHURCH

As the world around us accelerates, our energies wane. But we are not defenseless victims. The following suggestions will help replace frenzy with peace and rest.

A Personal Sabbath Rest: Helps us Find Stillness as we bow before God –
“Be still and know that I am God” (Ps. 46:10 NIV). Before hurrying past that profound command, let’s turn it over in our minds several times.

Case striving and know that I am God.
Stand silent! Know that I am God! [TLB]
Let be and be still, and know—recognize and understand—that I am God. [AMP]
“Give in”, he cries, “admit that I am God.” [Moffat]
“Stop fighting, “ he says, “and know that I am God.” [TEV]
Step out of the traffic! Take a long, loving look at me, your High God, above everything. [The Message]

However we may prefer to read it, this is an emphatic imperative addressed to God’s own people. People of every race, color, culture, and era…people of any level of maturity and age…people who are employed or unemployed, single or married, with or without children, all people whose God is the Lord. We are commanded to stop (literally)…rest, relax, let go, and make time for Him.

The scene is one of stillness and quietness, listening and waiting before Him. Such foreign experiences in these busy times! Nevertheless, knowing God deeply and intimately requires such discipline.
