Rest To See Victory | |
Many of us want our problems
solved first before we adopt an attitude of rest. We say things like,
“I can only rest when my healing manifests,” or “I’ll relax the day I
get that promotion and pay increase.” But God says, “Sit at My right
hand, till I make Your enemies Your footstool.”
Sitting is a position of
rest. Through Jesus’ finished work you are seated with Him in heavenly
places (Ephesians 2:6). And you are to remain seated or at rest until
you see God put every one of your problems under your feet!
Thoughts may be swirling in your head today—What am I going to do about it? Where is the money going to come from? What if the tumor is malignant? What if I lose my job?
But learn to adopt an inward position of rest. When you rest, the Lord
goes to work, orchestrating events in the natural and spiritual realms
to bring every enemy under your feet.
Beloved, you allow Almighty
God to work in you, through you and in your circumstances when you rest.
Sometimes, it may seem like He is not doing anything when you rest.
Don’t be tempted then to move out of your position of rest. You can’t do
more than He can! Stay seated—at rest—knowing that He is working behind
the scenes, turning your evil days into good days, preserving you and
causing all things to work out for good!
