Introduction
Summary: This passage of scripture is dealing with hardened hearts and a people that were disobedient to the Lord.
However there is much to gain as believers from this lesson in the Word of God, as it gives us clear instruction and wisdom to search our own hearts and allow it to be tender towards God.
It deals with victory and defeat, where there is one hanging on the balance of battle that could go either way.
We must remember we are in a battle and though the victory to the war is won, we must win the daily battles life presents to us.
Listening Rest
God Commanded
God was Speaking the entire time, yet they heard the words but never listened.
We often associate listening as hearing when someone speaks, however listening is hearing and doing or clearly taking heed to the words that are being spoken.
God was Clear
In
God clearly told the children of Israel that they were able to take the land, in fact He already promised it to them.
We are promised so much through the Word of God we must not falter but be faithful in serving God and claiming the victory that is already ours to claim.
Lost Rest
They Turned
They provoked the Lord and turned from Him, They were given the blessing and still they turned from God in fear of man.
They Trusted Not
They didn’t even believe or trust God, the very God who delivered them out of the hands of the Egyptians.
They very God who has fed and clothed them, cared for their every need.
Yet after all of God’s love and care they chose rather not to trust Him.
The Location of Rest
The Place
God did rest in a certain place, God eternal rested in a certain place.
God is giving us an example to have a place of rest, a time of rest.
The Presence
God is present in our rest, He is the one who can inhabit our place of rest.
If we rest in the secret place with God.
Lord’s Rest
The Person
We have rest in Christ Jesus () that we can bring Him our burdens and cares.
He will take them and give us rest in exchange but it is all anchored in the person of Christ Jesus.
The Purpose
His purpose of giving rest is because He carried the burden and load.
In the life of Christ we read one time where He was sleeping, but we know He slept more.
I believe it is to show us that in His weariness as a man it was to supply us with rest.
Lasting Rest
Promised
Promised
It remaineth, it is yet stored up for us to an appointed time in the future.
For us that are saved it is the promised rest of eternal life in the land that God has promised unto us.
People
It is for the “people of God” those that have trusted Christ as Savior.
For the world there is no rest because of their unbelief.
Laboring Rest
Hebrews 4:
Entering
Through labor we live in this life, but when God calls us home we will then enter into His rest.
Ceasing from the labor of life just as God ceased from His own labor, the blessed rest of heaven will now be haven of rest for us.
We can then rest assured as our faith will be sight.
Example
We must set the example of Christ and the rest He has given to us in our life so that others do not fall into the example of unbelief that has made a great sweep across the world today.
