REST & allow God to do the Rest

REST & allow God to do the Rest
I: SANCTIFICATION (YOUR PART)
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work:
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God:
in it thou shalt not do any work, thou,...
Exodus 20:8-10

II: JUSTIFICATION (GOD's PART)
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work,...
And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
Deuteronomy 5:14,15

III: SUMMARY
For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world....Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:...For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day. There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.
Hebrews 4:3,6,8-10
