Sabbath Blessings!
God blessed the seventh day that very first week of creation. The gift of the Sabbath was given to man in the very beginning.
God rested on the seventh day as an example for us. The Sabbath was not created for God’s benefit. In fact, God doesn’t grow weary from working the way we do.Let’s look at the original Hebrew word for in Genesis 2:2 for rest: “Shabbat” or Sabbath. “Shabbat” means to cease or stop. God stopped His work of creation and rested.
God wanted us to have a special day to rest and spend time with Him.
He wanted you and I to have a time each week when we could step away from the busyness of this world and rest without guilt.
Rest.
👉Rest for weary hearts.
👉Rest for overwhelmed minds.
👉Rest for tired bodies.
God set aside one day a week, the seventh day, so that we could remember His love for us.
