Enter the rest of Jesus Christ

Those who love and follow Jesus Christ have entered His rest, the rest of their OWN works but it does not mean that they are doing nothing. They are DOING the WORKS OF GOD that He has prepared for those who love Him.

Jesus commanded us to work while it is still day time before night comes (death) when nobody can work. If we follow Jesus Christ we rest of our OWN WORKS and our own endeavors, we stop chasing after wind, we get out of the rat race and we wait on Jesus, we serve Him and we DO what He tells us to do because we are not running after our own desires any more; we are WALKING and LIVING in the plan that God has prepared for us. We have become part of the kingdom of God and we DO what is pleasing to Him. We rest of our OWN works but we DO the works of Christ. We live in utter obedience to Him.

Many believers don't want to work for the kingdom of God and that is why they will not enter the rest of Christ, they will not enter the kingdom of God. Eternal life is only promised to those who are willing to work now so that they can have their rest after they have completed the works that God has prepared for us to do in His kingdom.

Are you resting of your OWN works and your own endeavors and are you following Jesus Christ and doing the works that God has prepared for YOU to do in His kingdom so that you can enter into His eternal rest?

May Jesus bless you.

Greener Pastures

The whole world is chasing after wind, being part of the rat race, seeking for greener pastures which they never find. But, those who are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God and He leads them to greener pastures.
The only One who can lead us and take us to green pastures where we find rest for our souls, is Jesus Christ Himself. His sheep LISTEN to His voice and they follow Him but if you want to be one of His sheep you have to deny yourself, pick up your cross and follow Jesus every day. He will guide you to green pastures but He will also take you through the narrow places, He will take you through the shadow of death. You will be persecuted, you will be rejected by men, but in all these things Jesus will be with you and in the end He will guide you to greener pastures.
His sheep LISTEN to His voice and they follow Him and that is why He guides them. That is why they reach that place of rest. Are you following the Good Shepherd? Have you denied yourself  and are you picking up your cross every day and following Jesus? There is a way that seems right to man but the end of that road is destruction. Only Jesus Christ can guide us to that place of perfect rest, perfect peace and  perfect contentment when we SUBMIT TO Him and we SERVE HIM as Lord and Master.
Have you decided to follow the  Good Shepherd? Is He YOUR Lord and Master? Or, are you chasing after wind?
May Jesus bless you.
