7-Day Life Practice: Rest × Oneness

 

7-Day Life Practice: Rest × Oneness

Genesis 2:2 By the seventh day God had finished his work; on the seventh day he rested from all his work.

Genesis 2:3 God blessed the seventh day and set it apart as holy, because on it he rested from all his work of creation and construction.

Exodus 20:8 Remember the Sabbath day; set it apart as holy.

Exodus 20:9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work,

Exodus 20:10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God; on it you shall not do any work, neither you nor your sons nor your daughters, neither your servants nor your female servants, neither your livestock nor the sojourners in your towns.

Exodus 20:11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and on the seventh day he rested; therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart as holy.
