This week we are challenged to intentionally enter into the rest God is offering us. Take some time this week to reflect on your life and what could be getting in the way of that rest. Take an inventory of how you use your time, how your mental health is affected by your schedule. Could it be that God is asking you for a change in this area?
LIVING WORDS FOR YOUR WEEK
Hebrews 3:14 (NLT)
"For if we are faithful to the end, trusting God just as firmly as when we first believed, we will share in all that belongs to Christ."

HEAD
- According to Hebrews 3:1-6, how is Jesus compared to Moses? Why is this comparison important for the original audience?
- What does Hebrews 3:12-13 say about the danger of a hardened heart? How does this connect to the example of the Israelites in the wilderness?
- In Hebrews 4:1-2, the author speaks about entering God’s rest. What do you think “God’s rest” means in this passage?
- Hebrews 4:6-11 warns about missing out on God’s rest. What lessons can we learn from Israel’s disobedience?
HEART
- Hebrews 3:12 warns against having an unbelieving heart. Have you ever experienced a season where you struggled with doubt? How did you respond?
- Hebrews 4:1-11 talks about entering God's rest. Do you experience the peace and rest God offers, or are you struggling with stress, worry, or striving?
- Hebrews 4:12 says God’s Word reveals our true selves. When have you been personally convicted or encouraged by Scripture?
