Delighting in the Sabbath
Series The Ten Commandments
Dear brothers and sisters, we come to third and final foundation message on the fourth Commandment (there will be more messages that will build on this foundation in coming weeks). I trust you have seen the emphases of these texts as we have worked our way through them. Mark 2:27-28 - the Lord of the Sabbath wants us to benefit from the day. Exodus 20:8-11 - God, who Himself rested on this day, wants us to remember the Sabbath. Our text this Sunday is Isaiah 58:12-14. Here we will consider together that God wants us to delight in the day, and that delighting in the day gives way to a fresh delight in God Himself. He has tied these two things together - delight in the Sabbath and delight in the Lord of the Sabbath. And as we discovered in John 14:21, "He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him." So the question that we must ask ourselves is this - does my view of the Sabbath manifest a desire for more of Christ?
