When is my rest Lord? I had asked the other day. Today I heard an answer, I just thought I should let you know. My rest is in Faith.

I am already at rest when I trust God to bring these things to pass. I do not have to put myself in the place of judgement because I have already been REDEEMED in Christ. I deserve to be condemned, but I am NOT. Releasing your Faith will bring peace, understanding, and wisdom. Standing before God even when you don't think you deserve it shows Faith- in the promise God gave us. I can look to the throne and stand there steady, knowing I am undeserving, and feel God's mercy upon me. This is love.

My rest is already here. I worry and kick myself for my humanity. I can entertain fear, and hoplessness. These things will keep me from God, and when something keeps you from God- you know where it comes from. I am in victory. VICTORY, satan. I'm taking back what the enemy took from me this week. I'm taking back my peace and trust and uplifted hope. I'm realeasing my Faith over what the word of God has already told me He will bring to pass in me and through me.

Strength, Lord, Peace Lord, love and joy, Lord. Thank- you Father. For your glory I speak, and for your glory I shout Praises.  I take back what I said, it's not so hard to be a follower when you keep God in your midst- it can actually be thrilling as you learn and understand. Maybe the transformation can be a little painful, but it worth it to become better aquainted with the ways of God. Don't let the lies bind you to the hardships of this world. Don't let your face be downcaste. Look at our God, He is worthy. Victory is ours, says the Lord.
