Grace For You Today
Encounter Jesus The King Of Glory And Experience His Rest!
Rejoice, O people of Zion! Shout in triumph, O people of Jerusalem! Look, your king is coming to you. He is righteous and victorious, yet he is humble, riding on a donkey— riding on a donkey’s colt. ( Zechariah 9:9 NLT )
Jerusalem then was a highly commercial city and a citadel for trade and commerce, whereas God had designed her as the House of prayer for all Nations.
One common thing in both the agendas is ‘Activity’ – whether world directed activity that results in toil and labour or Holy Spirit directed activity which is called ‘Rest’.
Jesus came to give rest to our souls in the midst of the hustle & bustle of the world. When the world gets involved in too many activities , causing men to be stressed out and pushed to the limit, God sends His rest – sometimes even allows compulsory rest , just like the way we all experienced during COVID 19. The lockdown & ‘stayhome’ , being made compulsory were suffocating to those who were workaholics.
My beloved, Psalm 37:7 says, “ Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him ..” and again the same psalm in verse 3 and 4 says “ .. feed on His faithfulness and do good. Delight in the Lord and He shall fulfil the desires of your heart”.
An eagle when it is soaring high, uses the wind to just glide effortlessly, so also your position in Christ is that you are seated with Him far above all forces whether positive or negative. Just rest & soar with the Heavenly wind, the Holy Spirit to glide and you will achieve much more than what you will otherwise get by toiling and striving.
You are the Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus ( your position ) and Christ in you is the heavenly force causing you to soar high ( your achievement)! Amen 🙏
Praise Jesus !
