WEEK 13 – Sabbath
This week we’re talking about “Sabbath.”
Ohhhhh the Sabbath, THE most under-practiced Spiritual Discipline in the entire world.
We are addicted to busy and feeling like we make our own world go round.
But a 24 hour protected period of time EVERY WEEK is completely life-giving to our souls!
This week my challenge to you is to establish a WEEKLY Sabbath day, NO MATTER WHAT!
Just try it.
No work… no chores… make the days food the day before (or eat out), no screens or media, only do things that bring (1) REST, (2) DELIGHT, (3) JOY, (4) REFRESHMENT, (5) REJUVENATION, (6) CONNECTION WITH YOUR LOVED ONES, & (7) CONNECTION WITH GOD
That’s it!
QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF
- When could I actually do this (as in what day of the week would work every week?
- What would I need to do ahead of time to make this work? (meals, chores, etc.)
- What will I absolutely not do on this rest & rejuvenation day (work, chores, media, etc.) Make it specific to you and your family.
- What types of things will I do that bring be delight & rest (i.e. naps, books, walks, hikes, adventures, conversations, longer meals, etc…) make it specific to you and your family.
SCRIPTURE
Exodus 20:8-11 / Mark 2:27 / Leviticus 23:3 / Genesis 2:3
WEEKLY FOCUS
This week, read through each one of these Scriptures each morning.
Think about just how valuable it is to commit specific time to take a SABBATH.
Ask God if there are any areas you need to surrender or change in order to devote more time to connecting with God through the SABBATH.
Let this theme guide your God time all week, and even your thoughts and conversation with Him through out your days, all week long. Let Him speak to you about this idea of SABBATH, and see what He says.
We’d love to hear your feedback, so hop into the devos conversation thread in SLACK & we’re excited to see what the Lord speaks to you this week.
BLESSINGS!
