WAFBEC 2018 – DAY 4 (EVENING SESSION 1) with Dr. Creflo Dollar

HOW TO BE EMPOWERED BY REST

Dr. Creflo Dollar read from the following scriptures;

He said that to be at rest you have to allow God to work for you. For when you’re at rest God works and when you work, He rests.

Dr. Creflo Dollar explained how we put so much focus on what we can do that we forget that we need God to guide us. James 4:14-15

He said that you cannot produce the God kind of result without God. You can only produce man kind of result when you’re focusing on yourself.

Rest is the highest kind of Faith. Learn to rest so God can work. Rest in the confidence that God is working and it is done. Joshua​ 24:13

“When you’re at rest God works and when you work, He rests.”

God doesn’t need you, but you need Him to be who you are. There’s more power at work from God when you are at rest.

By ‘Rest’, I do not mean being away from from work, physically. It is resting even in work. It is at the place or time of rest that God is at His best. The only work God has left for us is the work of rest.

According to Heb. 9:13-14, ‘Dead work’ is when you try to get God to do something that isn’t part of what the blood of Jesus has purchased for us. The quickest way to lose the favour of God is to try it by yourself.

“You cannot produce the God kind of result without God. You can only produce man kind of result when you’re focusing on yourself.”

John 6:27-29

When you enter the place of rest, you live a life of worship. The kind of spiritual warfare you ought to be involved in is to maintain the victory that Jesus has already obtained. Your warfare is you resting in the victory Jesus already get.

Philippians 2:12

God is working in you, doing all the things you are unable to do while you are at rest. Stop trying to do things yourself.

“Rest is the highest kind of Faith. Learn to rest so God can work.”

2 Tim. 1:9

It grieves the Holy Spirit for you to settle for less than what He has given you. You can get what is better when you are at rest. Stay at rest and get God’s best. When you get into a bad situation, be still and at rest and as God for his will.

“The only work God has left for us is the work of rest.”

1 John 4

The highest kind of faith is rest. The victory is in your faith not action. When things are not working right, check how much time you are spending in the word. The more time you spend studying the word, the younger you become.

According to Gen. 6:8, ‘Noah’ means rest. You find Grace when you’re at rest. Whatever takes your peace is too expensive. You have to be at rest. Jesus needs you to seat down, recline and rest while he does great things.

SIX PRINCIPLES OF REST

Psa. 127:1-2, Matt. 11:28-29 (AMP). Learn the unforced rhythm of Grace.
