Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass. Psalms 37:7(NKJV)
In Matthew 11:28-30 Jesus defined Rest as liberty from everything that holds us in bondage and everything that weighs us down. In talking about the rest He gives, Jesus said His yoke is easy (freedom from bondage) and his burden light (freedom from being weighed down).Jesus’ easy yoke is everything that He says to us and His burden is us believing everything He says.We rest in the Lord hearing, believing, and acting on what He says we are, we have, and we can do in Him.He says we are His dear children – Ephesians 5:1; He says all that He has we have – Luke 15:31; He says we can do all things in Him- Philippians 4:13
