As a child of God, when we surrender to the Lord Jesus Christ, we will never face any situation “alone” He promises, He “will never leave” us. We do it together. If we yoke ourselves together with Jesus, it’s “you and Jesus” — and all about a relationship. Not a wooden piece you hang on your shoulders, it’s all about a relationship.
He promises to provide everything we need. He promises to bear our burdens, He promises He’ll never leave. No matter what comes our way in life…we are never alone…because we face it yoked together, with Jesus. Amen!
His yoke is easy, His burden is light, and so on. If we live our life alone without Jesus…it would be a very different type of life. A decision to take on His yoke there isn’t anything we can’t conquer, because “He is with us.” We are not alone.
His peace He gives unto us. Not as the world gives to us, let not your heart be troubled.
He is easy, light, pure, life, and peace personified.
Surrendering to Jesus we are heirs to His Kingdom, and being yoked to Jesus we inherently handle “life” with “life” not death.
When we don’t have Jesus in life, there is no “life.”
Without Jesus we are like “one Ox” stuck in the mud handling a heavy load.
With Jesus, we are “two” in the mud sharing the load, and therefore it becomes easier and light.
Jesus gives us rest.
Jesus gives us peace.
Jesus gives us life.
Jesus gives us light.
Jesus is with us, and we never have to fear. We have confidence, and faith knowing He is our Master, and relieves us of our burdens. When we are yoked up with Jesus…we experience life, the way He wants us to. According to His will, as we yield our lives to Him, and grab hold of our faith, it’s our decision, and a commitment we make…and one that promises to be “easy and light” as we rest in Him.
Are you yoked up to Jesus?
“Father God, thank You for being in control, we yield unto You, You fill our lives with light, and give us rest, we thank You for Your promises and Your love, in Jesus name, Amen.”
