Correct?

Hmm. He calls His Sabbaths "appointments", set times for meeting with His people. I don't think it's a matter of Him ceasing some activity but rather of us ceasing our routine activities in order to meet with Him in various ways. So then it sounds like you are asking "Does God keep the Sabbath?" which I think is a very interesting question that opens up a line of thought I had not really considered before. Does God keep Sabbath?
I think in a sense yes He does, in that He seems to reckon time according to the calendar He gave in the Bible. But not in the sense of regularly ceasing from His usual activities (He has no need of recuperation). Interesting idea, that God participates with us in the things we do. Does God go to church with us? In a sense yes. At least I would hope so, no sense going to church without Him.
