Set Apart

Good morning Brothers. Happy Sabbath. God loves you. I love you. Praise God for waking you up this morning. The lord will fight for you, you need only be still. (Exodus 14:14). Let’s sing, Don't forget the Sabbath, The Lord our God hath blest, Of all the week the brightest, Of all the week the best; It brings repose from labor, It tells of joy divine, Its beams of light descending, With heavenly beauty shine. Welcome, welcome, ever welcome, Blessed Sabbath day, Welcome, welcome, ever welcome, Blessed Sabbath day! Today’s verse is from Exodus 20:8. Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. What's holy about the Sabbath? It's a day set apart to be different from all the other days of the week. God intends for one day a week to look and feel different. As people who belong to Him, we can delight in His designation of some days as productive days for work and then other days set apart for reflection and refreshment. When was the last time that you stopped working for a full 24 hours and rested? Look back on the last six days and reflect on what you have created. How would stopping and not working for 24 hours impact your life? Remember, God created special times for rest, keep those times set apart. God loves you. Have a blessed day.
