The Abiding Life
Sabbath
April 7, 2019 • Justin Rupple
Sabbath is a gift to God’s overworked and overburdened people. You feel the pressure to keep going, non-stop and feel like you just can’t slow down. But God is saying, you are free to take one day every single week to just be, just relax, and trust me. I’ll keep the world turning. I’ll provide. I’ll carry you through. You don’t need to earn it, just receive it as a gift of my grace.

We’ve been looking at the importance of abiding, staying connect to Jesus, the life-giving source of all spiritual fruit. The tremendous importance & effects of silence and solitude have been looked at. In this message, we turn to another tool called fixed-hour prayer. Don’t be fooled by the boring title! This tool may just be the most practical, simple, transformational tool of them all!

Today we will look at 3 things: // Jesus is the source // Fruit is the byproduct // Healthy relationship is the point
