While I was praying over a situation in my life, I felt like the Lord showed me that I needed to learn to be at rest in him. He brought me to a passage of scripture that showed the Israelites refusing to stay in his rest and that was the reason that things took so much longer.

I also felt like God was showing me that my heart was unstable in this area. I was jerked this way or that way and I had not yet settled things in my heart. I read scriptures on this and tried to get a better understanding. Scriptures like he is the rock , etc came out.

An unsettled heart can’t decide what it wants. It may believe one thing and act on another. It is jumpy and it needs to come back to the father for a while, be restored, and learn how to lean on the solid rock.

In the area I was praying in life had thrown me some huge curve-balls. I had been shocked even traumatized so to speak. My heart was tossed too and fro and somewhere along the way fear had taken over.

Now I needed to relearn stability. I needed to relearn that I could enter into his rest and there I will be calm and he will be my stable place.

Is there an area of your heart that you feel unsettled in? Maybe the answer is not to trust in any other thing than him. Maybe it is time to fast and pray, and only do what you feel God would want you to do.
