Repouso e férias

Por Bíblia Online –

Deus criou o descanso como parte da vida. O sábado, o repouso e até as férias refletem a confiança de que Deus sustenta todas as coisas — mesmo quando paramos.

O descanso como ordenança

Deus descansou no sétimo dia e nos convidou a fazer o mesmo. O descanso sabático é um presente de Deus para restauração do corpo e da alma.

9 So that there is still a Sabbath-keeping for the people of God.10 For the man who comes into his rest has had rest from his works, as God did from his.

13 If you keep the Sabbath with care, not doing your business on my holy day; and if the Sabbath seems to you a delight, and the new moon of the Lord a thing to be honoured; and if you give respect to him by not doing your business, or going after your pleasure, or saying unholy words;14 Then the Lord will be your delight; and I will put you on the high places of the earth; and I will give you the heritage of Jacob your father: for the mouth of the Lord has said it.

31 So then, if it is a question of food or drink, or any other thing, whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

Sono e paz

Ditar-se em paz e dormir tranquilamente é bênção do Senhor. Quem confia nele dorme sem medo e acorda renovado.

8 \4:7\Lord, you have put joy in my heart, more than they have when their grain and their wine are increased.

5 \3:4\I send up a cry to the Lord with my voice, and he gives me an answer from his holy hill. (Selah.)

2 It is of no use for you to get up early, and to go late to your rest, with the bread of sorrow for your food; for the Lord gives to his loved ones in sleep.

5 You will have no fear of the evil things of the night, or of the arrow in flight by day,

24 When you take your rest you will have no fear, and on your bed sleep will be sweet to you.

12 \5:13\There is a great evil which I have seen under the sun--wealth kept by the owner to be his downfall.

Descanso e segurança

No repouso, encontramos segurança. Deus guarda os justos, e mesmo no silêncio da noite, sua paz nos protege e restaura.

18 And you will be safe because there is hope; after looking round, you will take your rest in quiet;19 Sleeping with no fear of danger; and men will be desiring to have grace in your eyes;

2 They are at rest in their last resting-places, every one going straight before him.
