Affirmation Train You Can Change Any Situations With Words
THE REST IN CHRIS BY PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME DSC. DSC. DD.
There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his (Hebrews 4:9-10).
Notice our underlined phrase above: “For he that is entered into his rest… That rest is the rest in Christ; it’s much more than the rest for the physical body. It’s rest for your soul, where you don’t struggle or toil for anything whatsoever. 2 Peter 1:3 says, “According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness…”
Everything required for your success, prosperity, victory, health and greatness has been made available to you in Christ. So, why worry? You don’t have to struggle in life anymore. Enjoy God’s rest. Hallelujah! Jesus said. Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment” (Matthew 6:25).
Paul, writing by the Spirit to the Church, in Philippians 4:6, said, “Be careful for nothing but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.” There’re many who haven’t realized this truth, and therefore aren’t enjoying a life of absolute rest and blessings. On their job, business, projects, or even their evangelical responsibilities, they labour and toll so hard with little or no results.
If that describes you, what you need is a renewal of your mind. Our struggling doesn’t please God. That’s why the Holy Spirit was sent to help us. In John 14:16 (AMP), Jesus said, “And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper (Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor-Counselor, Strengthener, Standby), to be with you forever.” He’s here today and now as your Helper.
You’re not alone. Christ is in you and with you; don’t work and walk alone. Live in His rest. The Bible says we’re seated together with Him in heavenly places: “And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (Ephesians 2:6). That isn’t a position of hardship, struggle or turmoil; it’s a position of rest, dominion, power and authority. The Bible says all the works were finished before the foundation of the world. (Hebrews 4:3). Now He says, “Enjoy all things.” Live in His rest, for all things are yours.
CONFESSION
It’s part of my heritage as the seed of Abraham to excel and make progress in life, from glory to glory, without struggling. I live perpetually in the rest of God. Now and always, I walk in His glory. manifesting His love, grace and righteousness. Hallelujah!

Superb blog! Do you have any tips and hints
for aspiring writers? I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
Would you propose starting with a free platform like WordPress or go
for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I’m completely confused ..
Any ideas? Thanks a lot!
Howdy! I realize this is sort of off-topic however I needed
to ask. Does running a well-established blog such as yours require a lot of work?
I’m brand new to writing a blog but I do write in my diary everyday.
I’d like to start a blog so I can easily share my own experience and thoughts online.
Please let me know if you have any kind of recommendations or tips for new aspiring bloggers.
Appreciate it!
