Faith’s Checkbook

September 28
Work is Done; Rest in Him
There remaineth, therefore, a rest to the people of God. (Hebrews 4:9)

God has provided a Sabbath, and some must enter into it. Those to whom it was first preached
entered not in because of unbelief; therefore, that Sabbath remains for the people of God. David sang
of it; but he had to touch the minor key, for Israel refused the rest of God. Joshua could not give it, nor
Canaan yields it: it remains for believers.
Come, then, let us labor to enter into this rest. Let us quit the weary toil of sin and self. Let us cease
from all confidence, even in those works of which it might be said, “They are excellent.” Have we any
such? Still, let us cease from our own works, as God did from His. Now let us find solace in the
finished work of our Lord Jesus. Everything is fully done: justice demands no more. Great peace is
our portion in Christ Jesus.
As to providential matters, the work of grace in the soul and the work of the Lord in the souls of
others, let us cast these burdens upon the Lord and rest in Him. When the Lord gives us a yoke to
bear, He does so that by taking it up we may find rest. By faith, we labor to enter into the rest of God,
and we renounce all rest in self-satisfaction or indolence. Jesus Himself is perfect rest; we are
filled to the brim in Him.
