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 then there remains a rest to the people of God.10 For he who has entered into his rest, he also has ceased from his own works, as God [did] from His.

13 If you turn your foot because of the Sabbath, [from] doing what you please on My holy days, and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honorable; and shall honor Him, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking [your own] words,14 then you shall delight yourself in the LORD; and I will cause you to ride on the high places of the earth, and feed yourself with the inheritance of Jacob your father. For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.

31 Therefore whether you eat or drink, or 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 I will lie down, both in peace and in sleep. For You alone, LORD, make me dwell in safety.

5 I laid down and slept. I awoke, for the LORD kept me.

2 [It is] vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows; [for] so He gives His beloved sleep.

5 You shall not fear the terror by night; nor because of the arrow [that] flies by day;

24 When you lie down, you shall not be afraid; yea, you shall lie down, and your sleep shall be sweet.

12 The sleep of a laboring man [is] sweet, whether he eats little or much; but the abundance of the rich will not allow him to sleep.

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 shall be safe, because there is hope; yea, you shall look around [you], and you shall take your rest in safety.19 You shall lie down, and none [shall] make you afraid. Yea, many shall seek your favor.

2 He shall enter into peace; they shall rest in their beds, each one walking [in] his uprightness.
