John 4:
31 In the meantime His disciples urged Him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.”
32 But He said to them, “I have food to eat of which you do not know.”
33 Therefore the disciples said to one another, “Has anyone brought Him anything to eat?”
34 Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work."
Matthew 9:
14 Then the disciples of John came to Him, saying, “Why do we and the Pharisees fast often,
but Your disciples do not fast?”
15 And Jesus said to them, “Can the friends of the bridegroom mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them?
But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.
John 4:
35 Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then comes the harvest’? Behold, I say to you,
lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest!
36 And he who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life,
that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.
37 For in this the saying is true: ‘One sows and another reaps.’
38 I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored,
and you have entered into their labors.”
Entering Rest...Amplified
Hebrews 4:
9 So there remains a [full and complete] Sabbath rest for the people of God.
10 For the one who has once entered His rest has also rested from [the weariness and pain of]
his [human] labors, just as God rested from [those labors uniquely] His own.
11 Let us therefore make every effort to enter that rest [of God, to know and experience it for ourselves],
so that no one will fall by following the same example of disobedience [as those who died in the wilderness].
Revelation 14:
12 Here is [encouragement for] the steadfast endurance of the saints (God’s people),
those who habitually keep God’s commandments and their faith in Jesus.
13 Then I heard [the distinct words of] a voice from heaven, saying, “Write,
‘Blessed (happy, prosperous, to be admired) are the dead who die in the Lord from now on!’”
“Yes, [blessed indeed],” says the Spirit, “so that they may rest and have relief from their labors,
for their deeds do follow them.”
