ECHOES OF HIS SPIRIT

The Word and Prayer,  These are the Believer's weapons... Jesus said in Matt 11:29-" Take my yoke upon you, learn of me,  for I am meek and lowly in heart,  and you will find rest for your soul".

And this is the foundation upon which the Believer's life is built upon, irrespective of the past (2Cor 5:17)... Before I go on about the 2nd rest.... I believe you should know that Rest- outside the context of salvation- is not a break from our labour in ministry, academics, business, your secular life in general, but "labour according to that which Christ lavishly supplies through Grace" (1Peter4:11). If John said of "His Fullness
