God’s Way: Prioritizing Rest –
Week 1 – Finding a Rest Area
Pastor Susie Gamez
Matthew 11:28-30 (NIV)
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
2 Corinthians 12:8-9 (NIV)
Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.
Genesis 2:1-3 (NIV)
Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.
2 By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.
Why do we need to prioritize rest?
1.) Rest – Because we need to know God
2.) Rest – Because the challenges of this world are too much
3.) Rest – Because our souls need healing
