Men's Ministry First Blog

Posted by Clif Cox

This is our first Blog and I wanted to briefly touch on what we do in the Men’s Ministry at High Mill and what we want to accomplish. Our goal has been to study the Word of God together, iron sharpening iron, to build the men up so that they are functioning leaders in their homes and church led by the Spirit of God. We meet every Wednesday from 7:00 to 8:30pm and Saturdays from 7:30 to 9:00am serving coffee and doughnuts with breakfast being served the last Saturday of every month cooked by the men.

We are currently in a study of Hebrews and have been discussing resting in the Lord. The word for rest in Hebrews 4:1 in the Greek refers to abode rest or a dwelling place and verse 2 says that faith has to be combined with it. In our group there are some whose jobs have been impacted by the down economy there are others who struggle with health issues and yet others with concerns about family and some of the decisions they are making. What to do? The answer is nothing until you can enter into the Lord’s rest. We need to place our full trust in him and have faith that He is faithful and will help us remembering that God is sovereign over all and that he loves us. If we enter into God’s rest we will be able to discern what the Holy Spirit is saying and enjoy the peace beyond all understanding even through the storms. What is stopping you from entering into the Lords rest? What can’t you turn over to him? Victory is waiting for you!
