“Therefore, since a promise remains of entering His rest, let us fear, lest any of you seem to have come short of it.” (Hebrews 4:1)
Some people hear the gospel and do not “mix” its promises with genuine faith. (Hebrews 4:2) They hear that Jesus died for their sins and think that is all very nice, but, for certain reasons, do not believe that the gospel is for them. Yet, the gospel IS for them! The GOSPEL IS FOR ALL!! And, the GOSPEL IS FOR YOU!!
If you have trusted in Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, then you can “enter into His rest.” This does not only refer to people who have died. But, this is a promise for all who are born again through faith in Jesus Christ.
Jesus promised to save us from our sins when we believe on Him in His death for us upon the cross and bodily resurrection from the dead. “Jesus paid it all!” He said: “Because I live, you shall live also!” (John 14:19) You can trust that He will be faithful to you through His MIGHTY AND VICTORIOUS PROMISES to you for each day!
You can pray daily to Jesus, knowing that He is alive and hears your prayers offered up in His name! Jesus promised: “And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. If ye love Me, keep my commandments.” (John 14:13-15)
Keep in mind that Jesus will return at any time to rapture believers to heaven before the Great Tribulation begins! Time is short!
