Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house will you build for me, says the Lord, or what is the place of my rest? (Isaiah 66:1, Acts 7:49 ESV)
Jesus’ Life (Again) and Rest
This verse is found in both Isaiah and Acts.
And the point is the same. Our Lord’s home is heaven… and we will follow Him there to rest.
He rests there free from worldly concerns, because He is KING. And we follow Him there.
He rests there secure in the Sovereignty that He shares. And we follow Him there.
He rests there in joy at His accomplished work, at peace from His victory on the cross, and loving His Father and His siblings. And we follow Him there.
He rests… and so will we.
