- Reminder of the HEART of Sabbath:
- To come to or find stopping points in the weekday work/chores (or just drop what you’re working on– sometimes it’s just too hard to find stopping points haha!)
- Sabbath was made for man and not man for the Sabbath!
- Work keeps your mind occupied. So if work comes to a pause, your mind is in a place that can allow for focus on YHWH, family, and eternal matters (souls, salvation, obedience, abiding, worship, prayer) rather than temporary ones.
- Recite and know the eternal Covenant He has made with us! It is the marriage contract we have with YHWH.
HIS COVENANT with US
Obedience from us, Blessing from Yah
- He will put His teaching (instructions/Torah) within us and write them on our hearts. We will know Him.
- He will be our Mighty One and we will be His people (treasured possession if we obey His commands). {Exodus 19:5; Deuteronomy 7:6, 14:2; 1 Peter 2:9; James 1:18; Isaiah 43:4; Titus 2:14}
- He will forgive all our iniquities and remember them no more!
- Sent His son to take away the world’s sin- HalleluYah {John 15}
- Sent His Spirit to help us live for Him (cleanses us and uses us and leads us)
- Ability to keep us from sickness & disease, to bless our bread & water {Exodus 23:25}
HalleluYah we get to rest
From all the work that can keep us stressed.
