Resting In The Lord - Lisa Patterson

Our subject today is "Resting In The Lord." Heb. 4:11 To rest (surrender completely).Enter into a deeper place of rest so He can do that which He is doing in us. We get so discouraged by God trying to do for Him or what we think He wants.
Workers of iniquity because it's their works and not His.It does not count on what we've done. Vs.10 says who has entered into His rest has ceased from weariness and pain. We need to be delivered from man made religion and a false word we have received over us or a heaviness over us. The Lord is healing us right now. Surgery is needed to cleanse us out and purify our hearts back to the Father. He doesn't want us in bondage. We are not to worry about ANYTHING!!
The Lord said, " Let me love you like I want to. The enemy is scattered and shattered abroad. He won't abuse you like before. but you must still stand on fertile ground to keep him away. Be sharp to hear my voice and know I'm speaking to you. Don't let the enemy speak to you or use you. Cover your family with the blood."
We pay the price to serve Him. Live the Deeper life God has for you9resting in Him).
Letting it all go. We must be broken for God. The enemy is trying to wear us out.
The Lord loves us so much that he put Angels around us and guards to protect us.
There is a wall of protection all around His people and we don't need to let it go by doing our on thing and expecting God to let us have our way. Even in Ministry He expects us to obey at all times. Not just when we feel like it. You can rest is him if you know Him and study the Word on a daily basis. He requires us to let down our guards and have faith that he will take care of us and not let us go.
When you fall in love with Jesus there will be a passion to be with Him. You will not have to learn it! When you are born again the incorruptable seed lives in you even if you live like the world. But you will not have fun at it.
 So let God take over and have you rest in Him and all these things you so desire will be added unto you. This is Lisa Patterson with the Good News that Jesus loves You and wants you to come to Him today.
