“Whether we write lyrics or craft legislation, sell homes or teach classes, design spaces or open franchises, prayer is a critical part of the creative process. Don’t just brainstorm; praystorm.”

When we broke the story last week on APS starting Goldie Hawn’s Mind Up program I took calls from KRQE and KOAT TV here in Albuquerque, all in all about a dozen calls about this story from the secular media. My thanks to Holly Holloman who told me about the program and then we posted the story here at FGGAM. Here is our Exclusive report, as FGGAM was the first to break this news: http://www.fggam.org/goldie-hawns-mind-up-program-introduced-into-albuquerque-public-school/ Holly and her son Robert, a 7th grade student at McKinley were interviewed by both TV stations and this and much more pressure on APS squashed the new age teachings. McKinley Middle School in Albuquerque says it is ending an experimental moment of meditation for its students. The program called “Mind Up” has students take time at the beginning and end of each day to focus on their breathing. Parents were given a letter asking permission for their children to participate, but many said that they couldn’t get a straight answer as to whether there was a spiritual or religious slant to the program, and if so, what it was. “Mind Up” is a curriculum circulated by the Hawn Foundation and actress Goldie Hawn.
Now last week I shared on rest……..and how important it is……….God is everything, God’s Word is the bread of life…….It was AWESOME to be with Sharon! It was just for 2 days, but it was 2 days! PRAISE GOD! We have been pounding it since FGGAM started a year ago Sept. 1st. I share this message from Pamela Rose Williams………
Rest is a necessity. It is a Biblical principle that all creatures must rest. Without proper rest the human body will break down. I know I have had a good night’s rest when I wake up refreshed and rejuvenated. Take a look at what the Bible says about rest.
God Designed Rest From Labor
Genesis 2:2-3 And on the seventh day God finished his work that he had done, and herested on the seventh day from all his work that he had done. So God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it God rested from all his work that he had done in creation.
Exodus 20:8-10 “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.Six days you shall labor, and do all your work,but theseventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or thesojourner who is within your gates…”
Exodus 23:12 (KJV) Six days thou shalt do thy work, and on the seventh day thou shalt rest: that thine ox and thine ass may rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger, may be refreshed.
God Grants Rest Not Only for Man
Genesis 8:4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
Song of Solomon 1:7 Tell me, youwhom my soul loves, where youpasture your flock, where you make itlie down at noon; for why should I be like one who veils herself beside the flocks of yourcompanions?
Jeremiah 33:12 “Thus says the LORD of hosts:In this place that is waste, without man or beast, and in all of its cities, there shall again behabitations of shepherdsresting their flocks…”
God Provides Rest From Trouble
Psalms 37:7 Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him;fret not yourself over the one whoprospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices!
Psalms 55:6 And I say, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and be at rest
Isaiah 14:3-4 When the LORD has given you rest from your pain and turmoil and the hard service with which you were made to serve,you will take up thistaunt against the king of Babylon: ”How the oppressor has ceased,the insolent furyceased!
God Promises Rest & Peace from Anxiety
Ecclesiastes 2:24-25 There is nothing better for a person than that he shouldeat and drink and find enjoymentin his toil. This also, I saw, isfrom the hand of God,for apart from himwho can eat or who can have enjoyment?
2 Corinthians 2:13-14 my spirit was not at rest because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I took leave of them and went on to Macedonia. But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere.
Philippians 4:6-7 do not be anxious about anything,but in everything by prayer and supplicationwith thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.Andthe peace of God,which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
God Knows You Must Rest to Recuperate; Even in Ministry
Mark 6:31 And he said to them,“Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat.
And behold, there arose a great storm
Matthew 8:24 And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves; buthe was asleep. (Jesus rested)
Matthew 26:45 Then he came to the disciples and said to them,“Sleep and take your rest later on. See, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
God Gives Spiritual Rest for the Soul
Jeremiah 6:16 Thus says the LORD:”Stand by the roads, and look, and ask forthe ancient paths, where the good way is; and walk in it,and find rest for your souls. But they said, ‘We will not walk in it.’
Matthew 11:28-29 “…Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
Hebrews 4:4; 9-10 For he has somewhere spoken of the seventh day in this way:“And God rested on the seventh day from all his works.” … So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God,for whoever has entered God’s rest has alsorested from his works as God did from his.
Revelation 6:11 Then they were each givena white robe andtold to rest a little longer,until the number of their fellow servantsand their brothersshould be complete, who were to be killed as they themselves had been.
Revelation 14:13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write this:Blessed are the deadwho die in the Lord from now on.” “Blessed indeed,” says the Spirit,“that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them!”
