God’s Rest

 “So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.”

‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭3:19‬ ‭KJV

The point is this, that even though the children of Israel survived by supernatural means in the wilderness for forty years, they failed to grasp what God had in mind for them and their inheritance.  Their own unbelief disqualified them.  They did not die because of an inferior salvation from Egypt.  They died because they believed a lie about themselves.  We cannot blame the devil for our own unbelief.  We can experience God’s supernatural provision and protection and yet remain outside His rest.  The ultimate proof of faith is entering into God’s rest.  His rest celebrates the perfect work of Christ on the Cross.  For Christ is the complete fullness of Deity living in human form. And our own completeness is now found in Him. We are completely filled with God as Christ’s fullness overflows within us. He is the Head of every kingdom and authority in the universe!  God longs for us to discover our own completeness and perfection as seen from His point of view.  His rest is sustained by us in what He sees, knows, and says about us in reference to the finished work of Christ.  Jesus is what God believes about us!  Amen!
