The Biblical idea of a day of rest has been in effect ever since the beginning of time. For the Israelites in the wilderness, it was a reminder of God’s faithfulness to provide for their needs and therefore reinforce or strengthen their faith in Him. What does it mean for us today? In this week’s message, Pastor Sonny explains the application of God’s Fourth Commandment in our ongoing series on Exodus.
Exodus 20:8–11
8 “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates. 11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.
