God Promises Rest to You
Backgrounder on Matthew 8-11:
Matthew shared ten miracles to
demonstrate Jesus’ power over
disease, nature & the spirit world.
Christ then bestows that same

as ambassadors of the kingdom.
He first instructs them how to act,
then warns them of the dangers
they will face, as he calls them
to committed discipleship.
Lord, we receive Your Rest:
Jesus said: Come to Me, all of u
who are weary and carry heavy
burdens, and I will give you Rest.
Take my yoke upon you.
Let me teach you, because I am

the burdens I give you is light
(Matt 11:28-30). Amen.
