OPEN HEAVEN 14 SEPTEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

The law of the Sabbath is not an end in itself but a means to an end and that is rest. Rest is a divine blessing which God bestowed upon His creation, particularly mankind. Even the land He gave man to inhabit must enjoy a sabbatical rest (Leviticus 25:2).

“And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made” “Genesis 2:2”

Rest is not just a commandment from God, but also an act of divine benevolence. Exodus 20:8-11 says: “Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.”

Some children of God are not benefitting from the sabbatical ordinance because they are obsessed with the goals they have set for themselves. While it is good to set goals and have a vision for ones future (Proverbs 29:18), you must be careful not to be a law breaker; you must not break the sabbatical law.

You must take time to rest as and when due. Another reason God would want us to observe the Sabbath is so that we may find time to enjoy the fruits of our labour.

God desires that man should enjoy the labour of his hand. Solomon said: “There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour. This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God.” “Ecclesiastes 2:24”

I pray that you will not labour for another person to enjoy your harvest, in Jesus name. This prayer can only be answered if you set aside at least a day every week to rest and commune with God.

OPEN HEAVEN 14 SEPTEMBER 2021 KEY POINT

You may choose any day in the week to rest from all your labour ( Romans14:4-6), for good health pleasing the Lord.
