Rest That Remains lyrics

Send "Rest That Remains" Ringtone to your Cell Words by Charles Wesley/Music by Craig Smith Matthew 11:28-30 Lord I believe in a rest that remains To all Thy people known A rest where pure enjoyment reigns And Thou art loved alone A rest where all our souls desire Is fixed on the things above Where doubt and pain and fear expire Cast out by perfect love Remove this hardness from my heart This unbelief remove To me the rest of faith impart The sabbath of Thy love Safe in the way of life above Death, earth and hell we rise We find when perfected, perfected by love Our long sought paradise Come O my Saviour come away Into my soul descend No longer from Thy creature stay My author and my end Come Father, Son and Holy Ghost And seal we Thine abode Let all that I am in Thee be lost Let all be lost in my God `And by the seventh day, God completed His work which He had done and He rested...` Genesis 2:2 `There remains therefore a Sabbath rest for the people of God. For the one who has entered His rest has himself rested from his works as God did from His.` Hebrews 4:9,10 `Come to Me all who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest.` Matthew 11:28 `Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall through following the same example of disobedience (unbelief).` Hebrews 4:11 God`s rest after the creation had nothing to do with tiredness. It had everything to do with completion. God had an eternity of energy and power remaining, but He rested because His creation was complete. Have you ever wondered what God`s plan was for the eighth day? It was not much work; the work was complete. God desired to walk and commune with His creation in His completed world that they might continue in His rest together. Man interrupted that rest through disobedience and unbelief. We, in our natural state, have chosen our way rather than God`s. We somehow have been deceived to believe that enough award of achievement, enough satisfaction of desire, and enough accumulation of possessions will allow us to reach a point of comfort in relaxation and rest. But, there is always more to accomplish, more to experience, and more to possess. That is why we can find ourselves successful, yet unsatisfied, unfulfilled, and weary. It is then that the Savior gently invites us to come to Him, walk with Him, learn from Him, and share in His rest. To yoke ourselves with Jesus Christ, we must lay down our burdens, surrender our motives, and relinquish our methods. `Not my will, Lord, but Thine!` You must settle that issue deep in your heart; once and for all. Then your rest will begin. It will increase as you walk with Him, learn from Him, and apply your faith. To refuse to settle this is unbelief--the disobedience that rules out rest. To lay aside the self-preferences of pride, lust, and covetousness, and then trust in the promises of God will surely yield rest. God`s plan has never changed; He has made provision through His Son for your completion, and with completion there is a rest that remains.--Steve Swift Send " Rest That Remains" Ringtone to your Cell Rest That Remains lyrics @ Burbler Lyrics | Rest That Remains lyrics @ ELyrics | Rest That Remains lyrics @ Kovideo | Lyrics and Video @ MusicBabylon | Rest That Remains lyrics @ Songlyrics | Rest That Remains lyrics @ ELyricsWorld
