What kind of gift is the good news of Jesus? What does this reveal about God the gift-giver? We see that the "promised land of old" had everything already there for the Israelites, cities, homes, cisterns, vineyards, olive orchards... all there for them to possess and enjoy. This is God showing us that the ultimate "promise land" - Jesus Christ and the eternal rest he gives - is a perfect and complete gift. The moment someone believes in Christ, they possess the fullness of God's blessing! Do you now stand in Christ through faith? Are you now living and enjoying this blessed rest in Jesus?
