Psalms116:7
Return unto thy rest, O my soul. Rest in God may be said to belong to the people of God on a fourfold account.
1. By designation. The rest which the people of God have in him is the result of his own purpose and design, taken up from his mere good pleasure and love.
2. By purchase. The rest which they wanted as creatures they had forfeited as sinners. This, therefore, Christ laid down his life to procure.
3. By promise. This is God's kind engagement. He has said, "My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest, "Ex 33:14.
4. By their own choice gracious souls have a rest in God. D. Wilcox.
