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 There remaineth therefore a day of rest for the people of God.10 For he that is entered into his rest, the same also hath rested from his works, as God did from his.

13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy own will in my holy day, and call the sabbath delightful, and the holy of the Lord glorious, and glorify him, while thou dost not thy own ways, and thy own will is not found: to speak a word:14 Then shalt thou be delighted in the Lord, and I will lift thee up above the high places of the earth, and will feed thee with the inheritance of Jacob thy father. For the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.

31 Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatsoever else 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 By the fruit of their corn, their wine and oil, they are multiplied.

5 I have cried to the Lord with my voice: and he hath heard me from his holy hill.

2 Then was our mouth filled with gladness; and our tongue with joy. Then shall they say among the Gentiles: The Lord hath done great things for them.

5 His truth shall compass thee with a shield: thou shalt not be afraid of the terror of the night.

24 If thou sleep, thou shalt not fear: thou shalt rest, and thy sleep shall be sweet.

12 There is also another grievous evil, which I have seen under the sun: riches kept to the hurt of the owner.

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 thou shalt have confidence, hope being set before thee, and being buried thou shalt sleep secure.19 Thou shalt rest, and there shall be none to make thee afraid: and many shall entreat thy face.

2 Let peace come, let him rest in his bed that hath walked in his uprightness.
