Contrary to popular belief, rest is not just pausing from activity. Biblical rest is an exchange. Jesus said, "I will give you rest." Rest is a gift. It's a symptom of someone who has been with Jesus. In today's show, I share how I recently practiced rest. I end the episode with an activation (guided prayer time) to help you connect with God and experience His rest.

Scriptures mentioned:

Matthew 11:28 NIV
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

Matthew 11:28 ESV
Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Matthew 11:28 TPT
“Are you weary, carrying a heavy burden? Then come to me. I will refresh your life, for I am your oasis.

Matthew 4:4 TPT
He answered, “The Scriptures say: Bread alone will not satisfy, but true life is found in every word, which constantly goes forth from God’s mouth.”
