Giving God Our Burdens
Leave a comment

Matthew 11:30 (NKJV) 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

Let it out.

We need to open our mouth in prayer and release what we have been carrying.

Whatever you are going through, or helping someone go through, the weight of it must be released or surrendered to God.

If we try to carry it, it will mess with us and interfere with the things we need to continue on in.

Just recently I spent a week helping someone get through a bad situation. I know that only God knew what I was dealing with. The person themselves had no idea what was going on in the atmosphere around them.

I don’t even think I fully comprehend most of what was happening. But I could feel the weight of it, and it was heavy.

When it was over, I was in prayer the next day, and what I felt come off me or my spirit man was sadness and sorrow. I had never felt this to such a degree as I felt it that day. But, thank God He was there. And I left it at His feet.

He is faithful to lift the weight of what we are going through or what we may be helping others go through. After we have helped with our part, it’s important to remember to let go or release it all to God, and be free from it.

Some of us have never been taught to release it. But it is a necessity. And if we don’t release it, we will feel the weight, the numbness, the constant dwelling on it. It can even bring confusion at times.

It’s not ours to carry. Let it go.

1 Peter 5:7 (NKJV) 7 casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-28-17

Worrying
Leave a comment

John 14:1 (NKJV) 14 “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me.

Are you troubled today?

Has something happened recently that concerns you or is causing you to worry? Do you spend your days worrying and fretting?

We all go through this once in a while. Stuff happens in life that can cause us to stumble, and our faith can even waver at times.

But as we walk through each day, it’s important that we don’t let our troubles become our focus. Focusing on our problems will only make them seem bigger than they are. Even if they are big, spending all of our time thinking about them will make them seem even bigger.

Jesus told us not to let our hearts be troubled. His words are true and trustworthy. So it would benefit us greatly to heed what He says!

It’s not always easy to do that. This is why it’s so important that we strengthen and build our walk with God. As we grow closer to Him, we learn to trust Him more. As we trust Him more, our faith grows. And as our faith grows, we spend less and less time with troubled hearts, worrying about every little thing that comes our way.

So, we need to take our troubles, and the yoke and burden they place upon us, and trade them in for the yoke of Jesus. Because His yoke is easy and His burden is light.
