Ezekiel 20:18-20

Every new year is a God-given opportunity for us to evaluate our lives and do what we are called to do as His children—love Him and love people. A new year brings a new opportunity to evaluate our pace and our perspective based on the cross and the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for us all.

The 2020 Vision series explores selected scriptures in the Bible that all have one thing in common: They are found in chapter 20, verse 20. The focus of this plan is Ezekiel 20:20.

In today's culture of hustle and ambition, we often prioritize our goals but overlook God’s rest. But as followers of Jesus, rest isn’t a reward for work—it's part of the work! Through the Sabbath, God shows us what a life of faith should look like. Sabbath is more than Sunday; it's a discipline that will lead us to a deeper trust in our Creator.
