Numerical Expositions: Genesis 2:2

And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

-- Gen. 2:2 (KJV)

You must find the perfect balance between work and rest.  The example given in this verse shows that you must complete what you are doing before you give yourself time to rest.  Rest must be earned with accomplishment.  Laziness and slothfulness occurs when you rest before you work.

Remember to rest in between assignments designated to you.  Even God had to rest.  Do not burn yourself out.  Do not overwork.

Numerical Analysis:  The numerical pattern for this verse is 2,4.  (2) To be delivered, finish what you start.  (4) To stay in God's Word, rest.
