Take 2-3 minutes to quiet yourself and ask God to speak to you today through your devotional time.
Reading: Psalm 62
Be sure to highlight or note anything that stands out to you while you read.
After reading the passage, take the next 5-10 minutes and spend time reflecting on what you read. You can write these things down in a journal or record them in your phone. Be attentive to both what you highlighted in the passage and what is going on in your life.
Sabbath is not just about ceasing work—it’s about resting in trust. When we pause, we’re declaring, “God is enough.” We loosen our grip on control and allow God to hold our lives together. Rest becomes an act of surrender and faith.
Now, take 10 minutes to seek God in prayer…
- Begin your time in prayer by taking 1-3 minutes to sit in silence (You can take longer if you sense the Spirit already beginning to speak to you).
- Pray through the things you sensed God speaking to you through the Scriptures or pray the following prayer: Pray a simple prayer of surrender, offering your anxious thoughts to God and receiving His peace.
- Close by taking 5 minutes to sit in silence, asking God if there is anything else He wants to speak to you today.
Take Action:
- Write down the top three things that keep you from resting and offer them to God in prayer.
- During your Sabbath, practice silence and solitude for at least 15 minutes to wait on God.
