Six days gather, seventh rest,

God’s command, His holy test.

Double portion, kept with care,

Sabbath peace beyond compare.

Cease from striving, still be blessed,

In sacred rhythm, souls find rest.

The Spirit doesn’t just give material provision (like manna in Exodus 16),

But also strength, wisdom, peace, and spiritual gifts.

(It reads in Exodus 16:22–30 Easy) On the sixth day, the Israelites picked up twice as much food. They picked up four litres for each person. Then the leaders of the people told Moses what they had done. Moses said to them, ‘This is what the Lord has said: “Tomorrow is a special day of rest. It is a Sabbath day, to worship the Lord. Today, you must bake any food that you want to bake. Boil the meat that you want to boil. Keep until the morning whatever food you do not eat today.”’ So they kept some food until the morning, as Moses had said. This time, the food did not have a bad smell and there were no worms in it. Moses said, ‘Eat the food today, because this day is a Sabbath day, to worship the Lord. You will not find any food on the ground today. On six days of each week, you must pick food up from the ground. But on the seventh day of the week, there will not be any food on the ground. That is because the seventh day is the Sabbath day of rest.’ But on the seventh day, some of the people went out to pick up food. But they did not find any. Then the Lord said to Moses, ‘The people continue to refuse to obey my commands. They refuse to do what I tell them! Remember this: The Lord has given the Sabbath day to you. That is why, on the sixth day, he gives you enough food for two days. Then everyone must stay at home on the seventh day. Nobody must leave his home that day.’ So the people rested on the seventh day.
