The Power Of Rest

DAY 3 OF 30

 Hopeless—that’s how I would describe Drenda’s and my lives before we understood how to rest. Nine years is a long time to live in financial chaos and stress. I can remember many times looking out over the 85-acre farm we rented for $300 a month, barely making that payment, which was extremely cheap, and trying to imagine a day where I would be able to own land like that.

Our plan was to stay in that broken-down farmhouse for three years then move on, but in our eighth year there, we were still no closer to owning anything.

After God spoke to me about the Kingdom, and we began to apply the principles and laws God showed us, our lives began to change. God gave me a dream and a plan to launch a business that would become the answer to our financial chaos. You might be thinking, “I wish God would tell me something like that.” The good news is that He wants to! 

I remember when we bought a new dishwasher turning to Drenda and saying, “Can you believe that we just paid cash for a new dishwasher?” 

People ask me what I mean by God’s Kingdom. To understand this concept, you need to understand what the word kingdom means. In a literal sense, it means the king’s dominion. A king’s kingdom operates by the word of the king. Kingdom infers a government with laws that enforce the king’s word to every legal citizen of that kingdom. 

Many Christians believe that God decides what prayers He answers or to whom He shows favoritism. They believe that if they fast or pray long enough, then they will have favor with Him. My friend, you already have favor with God! You are not only a citizen of His Kingdom, but also a member of His very own household, a son or daughter of the King! 

And the best part is there are no hopeless situations with God.
