Resting place


a WORD from God's Book

______________________________________________________

The dove found no resting place for the sole of her foot, so she returned to him into the ark, for the water was on the surface of all the earth. Then he put out his hand and took her, and brought her into the ark to himself.

"My people have been lost sheep; their shepherds have led them astray and caused them to roam on the mountains. They wandered over mountain and hill and forgot their own resting place.

Don't continue doing things the way we're doing them at present, each of us doing as we wish. Until now you haven't arrived at the goal, the resting place, the inheritance that God, your God, is giving you. But the minute you cross the Jordan River and settle into the land God, your God, is enabling you to inherit, he'll give you rest from all your surrounding enemies. You'll be able to settle down and live in safety.

" 'Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house will you build for me? says the Lord. Or where will my resting place be?

for you have not as yet come to the resting place and the inheritance which the LORD your God is giving you.

Genesis 8:9 Jeremiah 50:6 Deuteronomy 12:8 Acts 7:49 Deuteronomy 12:9

You cannot teach what you do not know, nor lead where you do not go.
