When do we receive the rest that Jesus promises?

Answered in 1 source

The rest that Jesus promises is given immediately when one comes to Him in faith (Romans 1:16).

The promise of rest from Jesus is one that is fulfilled immediately upon coming to Him. As highlighted in Romans 1:16, the Gospel is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes. Therefore, as soon as an individual places their trust in Christ and acknowledges their need for rest from sin, they experience that peace and assurance. This immediate response of grace underscores the loving nature of Christ, who invites the weary and burdened to rest in His redeeming love.
