1 The Tyranny of the Urgent Entering God s Rest
2 Be still and know (recognize, understand) that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth. Psalm 46:10
3 Tyranny? Cruelty Enslavement Oppression
4 Urgent? Compelling High-priority Pressing
5 Tyranny of the Urgent Being enslaved to the do, coping w/out God
6 A Stressful Week Tuesday: AOG presentation prep Wednesday: Babysitting/Staff Mtg. Thursday: AOG Mtg./Healing Hearts Friday: Babysitting/Sunday message Saturday: Video Taping w/dennis Lee Sunday: Message/Discernment Class
7 Two of my mom s caregivers got sick
8 Tyranny began to hover over me
9 1 I snapped at Barb 2 I began to panic! 3 Opression came
10 In the Past Press through Cold sores, sore throat, congestion Blurred perspective
11 King David s Secret Psalm 131:1-3
12 O Eternal One, my heart is not occupied with proud thoughts; my eyes do not look down on others; I don t even begin to get involved in matters too big, matters of faith, state, business, or the many things that defy my ability to understand them. Of one thing I am certain: my soul has become calm, quiet, and contented in You. Like a weaned child resting upon his mother, I am quiet. My soul is like this weaned child. O Israel, (stake your trust )completely in the Eternal from this very moment and into the vast future.
13 I walked, talked I reflected I repented I prayed
14 My Peace Returned
15 When you trust God you can rest and relax knowing that things are gonna work out
16 King Solomon Proverbs 3:5-6
17 Place your trust in the Eternal; rely on Him completely; never depend upon your own ideas and inventions. Give Him the credit for everything you accomplish, and He will smooth out and straighten the road that lies ahead.
18 Default Coping Mechanisms Alcohol, drugs, nicotine Food, overeating Shopping
19 Small Group Time -How do you cope w/stress? -Stressed about anything? -Pray for each other
20 Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Put My yoke upon your shoulders it might appear heavy at first, but it is perfectly fitted to your curves. Learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble of heart. When you are yoked to Me, your weary souls will find rest. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light. Matthew 11:28-29
21 A Prayer of Rest
22 I thank You Lord, that because of Your grace and mercy, You are the giver of good gifts. I thank You Lord that You dispel chaos and fear everywhere You go. I ask You Lord, to forgive me for the times that I have purposefully chosen chaos and anxiety rather than asking You to deal with my worries and fears. I repent for the times in my life when I have not accepted Your rest, but instead have invited stress, disorganization and confusion into my soul. Forgive me, Lord, for anyone I may have hurt by my words and behaviors when I was under stress and swimming in chaos. I ask You to bless those I may have hurt and place them under the shadow of Your wings.
23 As a member of my family line I repent for all those who used drugs, alcohol or medications to force rest upon their bodies and spirits rather than turning to You. As a member of my family line I repent for all those who although they knew You, chose pride and selfish ambition over surrender to Your Sabbath rest. In the name of Jesus I break, shatter, cut-off, dissolve and destroy all ungodly frequency vibrations, lay lines, tubes and mechanisms that have prevented my brain from receiving your rest. Father please tune my brain to Your heartbeat.
24 Father, in Jesus name please seal all ungodly dimensions and open the godly dimensions that lead to You and the revelation of Your purposes in my life. I declare that You give only light burdens and welcome Your gentle touch upon my life. In the name of Jesus, I break, shatter and destroy the behaviors in my life that have prevented me from observing Your Sabbath rest and remembering Your healing touch. Father, in the name of Jesus, please come into my brain and transform any thoughts that are not pleasing to You. Seal all cracks in my brain that have allowed chaos and fear to enter. I thank You Lord, and bless Your name because you carry my problems and teach me to depend on You. Teach me about the peace and joy of Your Sabbath rest. In the name of Jesus I accept quietness into my heart. Thank You Lord that You are the God of rest!
