The Sabbath rest contains some super-charged keys to ascend above the difficulties of today. Watch your family reach its complete destiny by rediscovering the position that the Sabbath rest ought to hold in your life. Make good use of the following 6 Sabbath principles.

1) It Was Applicable Then and It's Applicable Now

Consider this - we'll just completely belittle the 4th Commandment and yet still presume to see all God' blessings showered out upon us. And please don't get caught in the trap of believing that Old Testament scriptures have no usefulness to Christians now since God's law is cancelled under the New Covenant. While this is SOME truth to this idea, it doesn't mean, for instance, that its now okay to commit adultery or steal and still receive God's best for your family.

2) The Final Countdown Has Begun?

May this next statement penetrate your heart, and give you a picture of its state. You are only as intimate to the Lord as you want to be. Ouch!
You'll be on a jet flight to closeness with your Savior by faithfully keeping the Sabbath. If your family's relationship with your Heavenly Father is living on just fumes, try really observing the Sabbath. That means R-E-S-T from YOUR toil.

3) God Keeps His Promises

God's Word is filled with awesome promise. One incredible promise draws an obvious connection between the Sabbath rest and being lifted up to places of grace and success RIGHT NOW. Yes, right here, right now.. Inspect Isaiah 58:13-14 closely to see what I mean.

4) Do Not Settle For Second Best

We all have an agenda, a mission to achieve. It may be very selfish or it may possibly even be helping other people. We still require a weekly rest from our work and get ourselves to Jesus' feet. That's what Martha's famous sister, Mary, chose to do. It is vital that we carve this time out for our homes to honor the Lord. Through honoring Him in this fashion, we place ourselves to have our glasses filled to spilling over.

5) The Sabbath Rest High-Point

So how have you been making the Sabbath extraordinary? Is this day just a opportunity to to get caught up on a growing pile of laundry or tackle that latest yard project? Or is this a time when your home celebrates how God has blessed you? You can make sure that this time brings honor to our Father by naming it a "delight". Let it the HIGHLIGHT of the week.

6) Step Into His Glory

Our loving Father gave the Sabbath mandate as a present to His children, certainly not a burden to make us miserable. When we recognize Him by resting from our labors, we are acknowledging the Lord as our one and only source. Get prepared for "exceedingly abundantly above" things to occur when your family makes some Sabbath changes. Stop running in the rat race our society has fashioned for you to follow. The Sabbath isn't just some futile ritual.

It's time to take your journey to God's awesome Sabbath blessings.
