HOLIDAY – HEALTHY AND NEEDFUL: YOU NEED TO KNOW WHEN YOU HAVE TO STOP WORKING – AND TAKE A BREAK!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

“The apostles [who had been sent out on a mission] gathered together with Jesus and told Him EVERYTHING that they had done and taught. 31 He said to them, \u201cCome away by yourselves to a SECLUDED PLACE and REST [LEISURE] a little while\u201d\u2014for there were many [people who were CONTINUALLY] COMING and GOING, and they could not even FIND TIME to eat. 32 And they went away by themselves in the boat to a SECLUDED PLACE” <\/em>Mark 6:30-32 AMPLIFIED.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

This morning I notice my ISP WiFi was not transmitting fully or very well because most of the in-house and office devices that uses WiFi where not responding as expected. I notice that I have to shut the mains down for some couple of minutes and then reset the mains and devices again. Lo, behold, each of the devices just retain full strength and back up again, then I remembered that the ISP main hub has been working for a very long time in months without a time or space for rest though it’s a working material or device as designed.<\/span><\/p>\n

How much more for you and I to see the need to REST and have LEISURE in order to regain a full strength instead of waiting until our body, soul and spirit breaks down as I almost experience few days ago. Hence I can say thanks to God for any governmentally holiday day as sets by the state and international body; and as I have equally leant to discipline myself to take a work time break for break and not for anything else irrespective.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus knew how important it means to REST and have LEISURE after a while as He exhort the disciples to do like-wise in Mark 6:30-32.<\/strong> Much more, the spiritual rest of your triune-being, that is, praying in the Spirit as Bible book of Isaiah 28:9-12,<\/strong> Ephesians 6:18 and 1 Corinthians 14:39b indicates it’s also very vital and important; it’s a very refreshing medicine to your wholesome being – spirit, soul and body – 1Thessalonians 5:23; Hebrews 4:12-13.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore, TODAY, THIS DAY, begin to create and take time to rest, have leisure, for many have come and gone working so hard instead of working so smart and taking time as an act of the wisdom of God, to see the need to REST and have LEISURE. Mark 6:30-32.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I pray you will be wise enough to live by the wisdom of God, in taking time to have rest and leisure; and to create opportunities for holidays and to take work time break for holiday and to ensure it in Christ Jesus. Amen.<\/span><\/p>\n

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

“The apostles [who had been sent out on a mission] gathered together with Jesus and told Him EVERYTHING that they had done and taught. 31 He said to them, \u201cCome away by yourselves to a SECLUDED PLACE and REST [LEISURE] a little while\u201d\u2014for there were many [people who were CONTINUALLY] COMING and GOING, and they could not even FIND TIME to eat. 32 And they went away by themselves in the boat to a SECLUDED PLACE”<\/em> Mark 6:30-32 AMPLIFIED.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

“See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, 16 REDEEMING THE TIME, because the days are evil. 17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is”<\/em> Ephesians 5:26-17.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

“Walk in WISDOM toward them that are without, REDEEMING THE TIME<\/em>” Colossians 4:5.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

“For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little: 11 for with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people. 12 To whom he said, This is the REST wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear\u201d<\/em> Isaiah 28:9-12.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
