Do Not Rest On The First Day

The A.O.B Olagunju Podcast

In the latest episode of "Do Not Rest On The First Day," we delve into the profound wisdom of balancing work and rest, drawing inspiration from the very order established by the Creator. While rest is undeniably vital for a healthy life, the key lies in its appropriate allocation. The central theme underscores the principle: work precedes rest, and the beginning is a time for labour, not relaxation. The episode emphasizes the divine example set by God Himself during the creation of the heavens and the earth. Just as God worked diligently for six days before entering into rest on the seventh day, the message resonates that one must first engage in labour before deserving the privilege of rest. The narrative warns against the peril of resting when it's time to work, highlighting the potential consequences for one's destiny, humanity, and future generations. The poignant reminder echoes that if you choose to rest while others are diligently working, you may find yourself working when others are enjoying their well-deserved rest. The episode concludes with a powerful insight: waking up to a life filled with tasks left by those who diligently worked while you were at rest; a sobering realization urging listeners to prioritize work before embracing the solace of rest.
