Life With God Is Easy And Light

Matthew 11:28- Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

It always warms my heart to know that Jesus sees the cares we carry in our hearts. He knows the worries you have for your family and for the future. He feels the heaviness in your heart as you struggle with the sickness in your body. He says to you, “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”

Jesus wants to give you rest. And He says that the way you receive rest is to be yoked with Him, for His yoke is easy and His burden is light. (Matthew 11:29–30)

What does it mean to be yoked with Jesus? Imagine a pair of oxen yoked together. The younger ox sees what the lead ox does and follows. If the lead ox turns left, the younger ox turns left. If the lead ox stops, the younger ox stops. When the lead ox starts moving again, the younger ox follows. Likewise, Jesus wants us to follow His leading and flow with Him.

It is not hard to flow with Jesus because He will not lay anything heavy on you — “For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” (Matthew 11:30) When you are yoked with Him and you flow with Him, you will find that there is nothing heavy-hearted, ill-fitting or burdensome from the Lord. When you flow with the Lord, you will find that things fall into place. You will not be weighed down, anxious or distressed.
You might say, “But Pastor Enoch, God has given me this heavy burden. It is weighing heavily on my heart!”

My friend, if the burden is heavy, it is not from God because Jesus said that His burden is light. The devil has probably given you the burden to crush you!

“Oh, Pastor Enoch, you are making light of how serious my burden is.”

No, I am not. Jesus did say that His burden is light and His yoke easy. So a life yoked with Him is anxiety- and worry-free.
Beloved, follow His leading and flow with Him, and you will find rest for your soul!

Confession:
The way I receive rest is to be yoked with Jesus, for His yoke is easy and His burden is light. Hallelujah

    Yes pastor sir i agree with when say is not hard to flow with Jesus because He will not lay anything heavy on you — “For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” (Matthew 11:30) When you are yoked with Him and you flow with Him, you will find that there is nothing heavy-hearted, ill-fitting or burdensome from the Lord.

    Also I reckon weary and burdened” is a perfect way to describe the state of men and women on the earth, in today’s hurried society more than ever. The Savior beacons us to stop and look to him for rest. Isaiah 30:15 says, “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it.” How hard it is for us in our flesh to do the one thing that would be easiest: that is to simply trust him, and lay our burdens on the Lord.
    We sometimes carry the yoke of religion, or seeking to appease God by our own perfection. Wereslse some Others bear the heavy yoke of seeking justification through some achievement, or way of seeking the recognition of men and women. Some simply are worn down by the trials of life in a fallen world in a fallen body. Jesus is the answer to all of these.

  7. Evangelist Margaret Jesuorobo 🩸🙏🏾✝️

    WHEN I AM YOKED WITH JESUS AND I FLOW WITH HIM, I WILL FIND THAT THERE IS NOTHING HEAVY-HEARTED, ILL-FITTING OR BURDENSOME FROM THE LORD.

    HALLALUJAH
    GOOD MORNING PASTOR, THIS IS SO TRUE FROM THE DAY I GAVE MY LIFE TO JESUS ALL THE TROUBLES ALL THE WORRIES ALL THE TRIALS OF LIFE I WENT THROUGH, IF NOT FOR JESUS CARRYING ME THROUGH THEM I WOULD NOT BE THERE TODAY.

    Matthew 11 v 28
    Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

    THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER SCRIPTURES THAT GIVES US THE BLESSED ASSURANCE THAT GOD IS WITH US AND WE NEED NOT WORRY OR BE HEAVY BURDEN NOR HEAVY HEARTED.
    1st Corinthians 10 v 13
    No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

    BECAUSE GOD KNOWS WE ARE ONLY HUMAN, HE KNOWS OUR WEAKNESS AND OUR STRENGTH. HE WILL ALWAYS MAKE A WAY OF ESCAPE AS LONG AS WE PUT OUR TRUST IN HIM.

    MANY ARE THE AFFLICTIONS OF THE RIGHTEOUS, BUT GOD MAKES A WAY OF ESCAPE FROM THEM ALL.

    JUST HAVE FAITH IN GOD. HE IS EVER FAITHFUL TO THOSE WHO DILIGENTLY SEEK HIM.

    THANK YOU MY DEAREST PASTOR YOU ARE ONE IN A MILLION. I LOVE CELEBRATE AND APPRECIATE YOU SIR. MORE STRENGTH AND GRACE FRESH ANOINTING AND WONDERS WITHOUT LIMITS ON YOU AND FAMILY SIR. MUCH LOVE YOUR EVANGELIST ❤️🙏🏾🔥🙏🏾🔥
