NJ - There is no I in teamwork
Today is a day of strong decisions
Today is a day of a renewed mind
Today is a day of disciplined living
Today is a day of certain progress
“Come to me, all who labour 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.”
I don’t know what burden you’re carrying.
I don’t know what’s weighing you down.
But I do know the answer.
For me it has taken some time to really understand this verse, I didn’t understand the full concept of what a yoke was.
When Jesus says, “Take my yoke upon you,” at first I thought this was something extra that was required from me, something else to deal with (extra load to carry).
I’ve got a heavy enough burden, Lord.
I don’t need to take on more.
A yoke is actually a board that has two arches in it that you put over two cattle so they can pull a cart.
The value of a yoke is that it halves the load.
Without a yoke, one cow’s got to pull that entire load by itself.
But if you yoke up the cow with another cow, then the two cows pull the load together, and the load is half as heavy.
Lets Prayer
Thought 1Your not meant to be yoked aloneWhen Jesus says to take his yoke upon you, he’s not saying he’s going to give you his problems.
Jesus doesn’t have any problems!
He’s saying he’s going to share your problem.
He’s going to share your load.
He’s going to take your stress on himself and bear it with you.
In these verses Jesus implies three verbs (Doings): Come, Learn, and Take.
Come: Jesus says, “Come to me.
Team up with me.
Learn: Then, learn how I do it.
Take: Take on a lighter load.
This is going to reduce your stress.
This is going to make it easier for you to navigate.”
When you’re yoked with Christ, you move together with him.
You move in the same direction and at the same speed.
And, you move in the right direction and at the right speed.
Share the loadTwo are better than oneTalk It OverWhy is it sometimes difficult to accept help from someone who wants to share your burdens and make it easier on you?
Do you have people in your life who are willing to do that for you?
How are you offering yourself to others to help reduce their stress?
God already knows all about your stress.
How will you show him that you are ready to take on his yoke?
Thought 2 Trade your weariness for Gods rest
Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.
We in ourselves don’t measure up Shame - Don’t let mistake from our past keep you away entering into Christ restGuilt - I should know betterIf only - I had not done thatIt is only through Christ righteousness that we measure up.
NKJVFor He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
Christ is waiting for us to come to Him, we have to make that choice to come.
Thought 3 Trade your Burdens for Gods Blessing
Take my yoke upon you.
Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.”
NKJVCast your burden on the Lord, And He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.
“If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink” ().
He invites us to come because he is the only source that will provide true and lasting satisfaction.
He refreshes and meets our deepest needs.
Only carry what is yours to carryRemain teachable - don’t be prideful and stubborn We need a strong prayer life
NKJVAnd let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.
