Every day should be the Sabbath




Now their are some people how practice the Sabbath on Saturday and some on Sunday but most do not understand why God started the Sabbath to begin with and why we should treat everyday as the Sabbath. The first time this day was mention is in Exodus 20:8-11. See the reason for the Sabbath is not to take a day off but to spend time with the Lord. Many have forgotten this key part. It was not made for rest alone. I believe God told us to rest on the Sabbath because we humans get distracted by work and he knows our hearts to well. Jesus himself worked miracles on the Sabbath much to the disliking to the teachers of the law. Why would God's son break his own law? It is simply more than a day off.

See God wants us to seek him out at least once a week. Just to spend time studying and learning about his word and talking to him through out the day. That is the true meaning behind the day. I think why should that just be on one day a week why not seek him out everyday. Most people think they show up to Church on Sunday and can get away with everything just because they put their time in on the Sabbath. This has breed in action in the body of Christ and put wolves in with sheep.When Jesus said pick up the cross and follow him it was meant for everyday. Matthew 16:24 That is why we must put away this idea that the Sabbath is just about rest and realize the true purpose to rest in the Lord's presence and do so everyday making everyday the Sabbath.
