Following are the notes from this past Sunday morning's sermon regarding the fourth commandment, from the sermon series, "Living Life to the Power of Ten."
#4 - TAKE TIME
Exodus 20:8-11
Exodus 20:8-11 - "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates. For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.
***Rest is important....but HOW you rest determines how you are renewed and strengthened.
***A restless heart usually leads to a reckless life.
***The force and power of this commandment lies not in the resting, but in the sanctifying.
***The Sabbath is unique and special.
***Keeping the Sabbath holy uniquely identifies Christians as holy unto God.
***You need a day of rest. In God's eyes, a day of rest is just as important as a day of work.
***You need a day of corporate worship. It is holy unto HIM, not holy unto US.
***You need a day to give time to a personal love relationship with God.
