Psalm 95:11

In the world, we live in today, “rest” seems like a foreign word to many of us. We all have so much to deal with, and without proper rest, the door is open for stress to plant its ugly feet and wreak havoc in our lives. But the good news is, God designed rest and it's only in pursuing his presence that true rest can be found.

In the midst of anxiety, fear, or worry, God's Word tells us to fix our eyes on Him, handing over our worries into His care. But what does that look like practically? What if we don’t feel close to Him? How exactly do we build an intimate relationship with Him? This devotional with Dr. Juli Slattery explores how we can build intimacy with God.

This five-day reading plan is based on Revelation chapter 5 and the revelation of Jesus Christ as the Lamb of God, worthy of all honor. Through these readings, we will journey from the tears of humanity without Christ, through the redemption obtained by His blood, to a life surrendered in eternal worship. This devotional invites us to examine our hearts, recognize who is truly worthy, and live to glorify Christ with our entire lives.
