Remember the Sabbath

Remember the Sabbath. That's what the Fourth Commandment says in Exodus 20:8-11. The Bible reminds us constantly throughout its contents of this. Now, I personally believe in the seventh day Sabbath. That is to say, sundown Friday to sundown Saturday. We could get into why this is. But we'll save that for a later time. 


God made the Sabbath for our rejuvenation. We were made as creatures with the need to worship. He gave us six days to work. All He asks is one day for us to sit down, slow down, and worship Him who made us. He loves us with an everlasting love. The Sabbath is a reminder to worship Him, and this in turn helps us to rejuvenate, being ready for another week. 

Exodus 20:8-11 (NKJV)

⁸ “ Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. ⁹ Six days you shall labor and do all your work, ¹⁰ but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. ¹¹ For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
