It Is Not Yet Time To Rest

1-Corinthians_15-58: Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord

TEXT:John 9: 4

1 Kings 13: 7-24.

INTRODUCTION:

It is not yet time to rest but time to work. Rest is always pleasant after labour, but dangerous within it.

IT IS NOT YET TIME TO REST

Day time is time to work while night time is time of rest. Jn.9: 4. Believers are in their day-time when they must do the work of God. They must work now. 1Sam.19: 60; Eccl.12: 1. The work of God is King’s business which demands haste. 1Sam.21: 8. Praying for our marriages, homes, families, spouses, parents, children are works that must be done daily.
