True Recovery

 Football (a.k.a. association football or soccer) is the most popular sporting event in the world with 1 billion fans. The modern game traces its origins to 1863 when the Laws of the Game were originally codified in England by The Football Association and is continued til today. It is a game in which 11 players each form a team and two teams compete. This match is between the 45 minutes in the first half and 45 more minutes in the second half, with a 15-minute break in between.

A football coach asked the players, "Why do you have 15 minutes in the middle?" Some answered, "The reason is because some players need to take a break after running 45 minutes." Some players responded, "because it's a rule." One player said, "Mistakes were made in the first half, but now is the time to prepare, strategize, and strengthen our team for victory in the second half." Who will the trophy go to?

Most of the Israelites on the wilderness path possessed scars regarding their past; carried pain suffered in the wilderness; and had anxiety about the future. As a result, their hearts became sick; they complained; and had unbelief. At that time, God instructed the Israelites to observe the Sabbath year. To the Israelites who walked on the wilderness path, the Sabbath year was given so they could fully enjoy the grace that they had received until then and to make it into a spiritual system. God wanted them to thoroughly enjoy the mystery of salvation; the grace from Mt. Horeb; the Word from Mt. Sinai; the covenant from the Ark of the Covenant, and the blessings of the Three Feasts given by Him.

The Sabbath year is a time for you to become equipped with God-given spiritual power. Simultaneously, it’s the time to prepare strength to save the land of Canaan. That’s why during important times, it’s essential to focus so that you can experience true rest and restore God-given grace. You are people of God with this covenant!! I pray for you and I love you. 4/06/21
