As we are supposedly all Christian men [and women], born again believers, why do many of us take it for granted to work on Sundays? I know a few personally who do just that. Is it right or wrong? Let's see what the Bible says about this...
Reading Hebrews chapter 4 offers us understanding of how God feels about it, and I was guilty of that too. Now, my day of "rest" [Sunday/Sabbath] is about God and my family.,. In verse 1 it speaks about the promise if we enter God's rest. That promise still stands today! And the second part of verse 1 offers us a warning! We must be careful if we fall short of this promise. Wow! God is warning us that there are circumstances if we disobey Him.
Verse 3 says the following; "Now we who have believed enter that rest, just as God has said, 'So I declared on oath in my anger, They shall never enter my rest.' And yet his work has been finished since the creation of the world." Those who DO NOT enter His rest on the "Sabbath" are doomed. They shall be banished from His presence. I did not want that in my life but only to please Him who is my God and Saviour. I changed and now have one motto...
First God, then family, and lastly, my business and all other things in life. My life has turned dramatically and I'm being blessed and He takes care of all my needs and even some desires. Where do you stand right now? Are you in His rest or not? Then it's time for you to make that change and become what you have believed - that He is God and what you do right will please Him always. Amen.
