God doesn’t say, “it will be easy” nor does He say, “there will be no battles”.
He says:
“My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”
Exodus 33:14 NIV
You will have to face difficulties, impossible situations, and fierce battles as you pursue God’s call on your life.
And through each one, Jesus is leading you to rest in the security of His love. To pursue the power of His peace. To find and capture the truth that is the freedom He has bought for you to live in.
No matter what is happening around you, you are not alone to deal with it – the Spirit of God is with you.
God’s promise is that His rest is yours. His peace is yours. His freedom is yours. It was fulfilled through Jesus’ death and resurrection and activated by your trust in Him.
You don’t have to earn it, you have to receive it.
