Meditate On
…“Sit at My
right hand, till I make Your enemies Your footstool.”
Mark 12:36
Rest To See Victory
Many of us want
our problems solved first before we adopt an attitude of rest. We say things
like, “I can only rest when my healing manifests,” or “I’ll relax the day I get
that promotion and pay increase.” But God says, “Sit at My right hand, till I
make Your enemies Your footstool.”
Sitting is a
position of rest. Through Jesus’ finished work you are seated with Him in
heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6). And you are to remain seated or at rest until
you see God put every one of your problems under your feet!
Thoughts may be
swirling in your head today—What am I going to do about it? Where is the money
going to come from? What if the tumor is malignant? What if I lose my job? But
learn to adopt an inward position of rest. When you rest, the Lord goes to
work, orchestrating events in the natural and spiritual realms to bring every
enemy under your feet.
Beloved, you
allow Almighty God to work in you, through you and in your circumstances when
you rest. Sometimes, it may seem like He is not doing anything when you rest.
Don’t be tempted then to move out of your position of rest. You can’t do more
than He can! Stay seated—at rest—knowing that He is working behind the scenes,
turning your evil days into good days, preserving you and causing all things to
work out for good!
