How to rest in God (Shiloh Ayesiga)

We live in a noisy world, a world filled with distractions, frustrations, obligations and complications.But we must not allow our clamorous world to separate us from God’s rest. God’s rest is a state or place where He rules and manages His creation;free from chaos and disorder brought about by sin and rebellion. The Bible says ” Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28.

We ought to feel embraced in God’s love and mercy because He went to great depths of even sending His only son to set us free and give us rest. When life’s challenges stress you out, the best way to cope is to stop, catch your breath, and remind yourself that God has authority and power over every situation. Job was deserted by his wife and friends during times of trial but he stayed firm and rested in God.
Brethren, if we are to maintain righteous minds and compassionate hearts, we must take time each day for prayer and meditation. We must quiet our minds and hearts to sense God’s love, will and rest.
