Sabbath as Rest

April 21, 2024 • AJ Vega • Genesis 1:1—2:3

Work out of rest. And, rest from work. We follow in the footsteps of our Creator who spoke the world into order. Part of His good creation was rest for Himself as a pattern for all to follow. Rest is a part of God's creation. Notice the word for rest is not simply "to stop" but rather to "settle" or “dwell” in (Genesis 2:15). This is different than just simply stopping to rest, because we have a God who creates, enters His creation, and enjoys it. What does that look like for us as people of God as we pattern after Him and show the world what it looks like to Sabbath?
