"Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it..." - Hebrews 4:1
Unbelief will keep you from your destiny.
The first generation of the Children of Israel who came out of Egypt, never made it to the Promised Land. They did not enter into God's rest because of unbelief; they did not trust God. In spite of all that He had done for them; they lacked the faith to enter into His rest for them. They wandered 40 years in the wilderness until all doubt and complaining died. Only Caleb and Joshua; of the first generation, and those 20 years old and under, entered into the Promised Land.
You can't enter into God's rest without believing Him. God's rest; that's faith in His Word, will always usher you into your destiny.
Jeremiah 29:11 says, "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." (NIV) God's plan for His people; who were in bondage during that period, was to bring them out into a large place: a place flowing with His blessings. That same promise is unto us today. God desires nothing less than to bless us abundantly.
God's thoughts towards you are good thoughts.
Yet, you will never receive you blessings - you will never enter into His rest - as long as you doubt Him.
It is impossible to please God without faith. God only rewards faithfulness.
Labor to enter into His rest.

- Set at watch at you mind.
- Guard your thoughts.
- Cast down vain imaginations.
- Disarm every thought that exalts itself against God's will for your life.
- Take captive every thought and bring it to the obedience of Christ.
- Guard your heart with all diligence.
- You are as you believe.
