Grace on Judgment Day

Matthew 25:31-46
31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 And he will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on the left. 34 Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ 37 Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? 38 And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? 39 And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ 40 And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers,[a] you did it to me.’
 
41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ 44 Then they also will answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?’ 45 Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’ 46 And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
At a quick look at today’s passage Matthew 25:31-46 “Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance …”, we might think that we earn entrance into heaven on judgement day by feeding the hungry, giving the thirsty something to drink, inviting the stranger in, clothing the naked, looking after the sick, and visiting the imprisoned.
But at a closer look, the King does not say, “You are about to be blessed.” He says, “You who are blessed,” which could just as well mean, “You have been blessed.” The blessing is not given at the final judgment because we did these things. The blessing is given to us right now. God is our Father, and Christ is our Saviour, so helping others is our joy right now. Not a way of being saved on judgement day. That is the blessing.
Look again and see how Jesus’ words are filled with grace. “Come” is an inviting word of grace. An “inheritance” is not a reward for good behaviour; it’s the result of being part of God’s family. A “kingdom” is out of all proportion to the deeds Jesus mentions. And God “prepared” it long before we were born before we ever thought of doing anything for anyone else.
Today, as we think about our entrance into the kingdom on judgement day, turns out once again, to be thoroughly and a gift from our Father in heaven, who has blessed us lavishly and yet notices, remembers, and gives us compliments on even the smallest things we do for others. We have grace at the final judgment!
Let’s Pray
Yahweh, our God of grace. We thank you for your gift of grace and the gracious blessing of helping others now and anticipating eternal life with you in the future. Father, we are grateful for your favour as we anticipate the judgement.  In Jesus’ name, Amen.

What Must Go During This Time Of Judgment

The promise of eternal life is combined with the warning of a day of judgment. In an age where people have rejected the possibility of ultimate truth and values, judgment isn’t popular. But it is a key part of the gospel message. It’s a theme that spans both the Old and New Testaments. Listen as Jesus says, “Whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned”.
According to the bible, what issues will be on the table on judgment day? As Isaiah speaks about the arrogant being brought low, he reminds the people that the worst sin is pride. “The LORD Almighty has a day in store for all the proud and lofty …” Pride is singled out as the key concern of the great Judge. Pride was at the heart of the fall of our first parents (Genesis 3). And pride was at the heart of idolatry in Judah. Many believed in their own ability to manipulate idols of gold and silver to get what they wanted for themselves.
Today, the book of Isaiah reminds us that when the day of judgment comes, they “will throw away … their idols of silver and idols of gold, which they made to worship.” It would be good to ask ourselves what idols we worship today. Now is the time to throw them away and worship Christ, our true Lord. Because now is the time of Judgement.
The LORD Almighty has a day in store for all the proud and lofty… (Isaiah 2:12).
Let’s Pray
Yahweh, I’m so easily filled with pride, which only separates me from you and will hinder my hope of eternal life. Father, show me what idols or issues need to go during this time of Judgement. God thank you for turning my eyes to Jesus, who became a servant so that I could be saved. In Jesus name, Amen.

The Judgment Seat

The Bible says, when Jesus comes again you and I will find ourselves standing before the judgment seat of God to give an account of how we have lived (Romans 14:12). All of us deserve a “guilty” verdict, because, as Paul puts it, “All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). None of us would stand a chance of being acquitted, except for one thing: We have an advocate, someone who speaks to the Father in our defence “Jesus Christ, the Righteous One” (1 John 2:1).
In scripture, Zechariah gives us a glimpse behind the scenes to show us what happens when we stand before God’s judgment seat. The high priest, Joshua, is standing before the Lord, dressed in filthy clothes, symbolising the sinfulness of even the most religious human being. Satan is also standing there to accuse him. There is nothing Joshua can say to defend himself. The Lord, however, rebukes Satan and says, “Is not this man a burning stick snatched from the fire?”. Then the Lord gives Joshua clean garments and says, “I have taken away your sin”.
Today, the only way you and I can escape God’s judgment is to have the Lord Jesus take our sin upon himself and speak up in our defence. The only thing we must do is believe in him, because “whoever believes in him is not condemned” (John 3:18). The Lord Jesus wants to be our defence, and he’s our only hope.
We must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ. (2 Corinthians 5:10).
 
Let’s Pray
Yahweh, thank you for speaking up in our defence so that we may have eternal life. Father help me please to be aware that there is a judgment. I ask for your advocacy and your forgiveness in Jesus’ name Amen.

God Forgives: All You Have to Do is Pray

Hello everyone, and welcome. Today, I want to share a message of hope and redemption written by my daughter, Sian, who is 13 years old. Despite her young age, she has a profound understanding of God’s love and forgiveness. I am proud to share her words with you, and I hope they touch your heart as they have touched mine.

God Forgives: All You Have to Do is Pray

Welcome, everyone. Let’s get straight to the point: as humans, we all sin. It’s in our nature. Whether it’s telling a lie, being disobedient to our parents or guardians, not respecting the Ten Commandments, or failing to keep the Sabbath day holy, we have all done at least one of these things.

But I’m not here to say we are doomed to burn in hell or that we will never be forgiven. Instead, I am here to encourage you to ask the Lord for forgiveness and to pray for His help in overcoming your challenges.

Scripture says in 1 John 1:9, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” I am here to remind you that God forgives and that He does not dwell on our past. He looks towards our future.

If God can do that, I believe you can too. Ask God to forgive your sins and help you become a better person so that we can join Him in heaven.

Now, in all my messages, I always say don’t take this for granted because it is true. Don’t take Jesus for a fool. Just because God forgives does not mean we can live our lives however we want and expect a simple prayer to fix everything. My dear friends, we must put in the work to improve ourselves.

God forgives, but we need to do our part by asking for His help to become better. Just because you have a past doesn’t mean you should remain there. Ask God to help you look towards a brighter future and to forgive your past.

As it says in Daniel 9:9, “The Lord our God is merciful and forgiving, even though we have rebelled against Him.”

It emphasizes that God is merciful and ready to forgive. And He will help you—all you have to do is pray and spend time with Him.

Now, who here loves to spend time with God? Good, that’s a great start to building a relationship with Him and asking for His forgiveness. Amen.

Repentance, The Response To Grace

Let’s Talk About Grace
A worshiper at a Navy chapel commented, “My favourite part of the worship service is the ‘assurance of pardon’, then I know I’m good to go for the next week”. A weekly re­minder of God’s grace inspires him to continue living for Christ!
As Paul warns though, it is important that we do not take God’s grace for granted, as if grace gives us a license to go on sinning. Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a World War II martyr, agreed. He taught against “cheap grace” or “preach­ing forgiveness without requiring repentance”, because God’s grace for us was so costly. God’s Son, Jesus Christ, gave up his life to save us from sin.
Paul asks, “What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase?”. Of course not! That would disrespect God’s grace and cheapen Jesus’ sacrifice. I’m reminded that when I was a boy, the worst scolding I could receive was “We didn’t raise you that way”, my folks didn’t sacrifice so that I could misbehave.
Today, when we fall short, we must confess our sins and profess our faith in the Saviour’s sacrifice for us. Remember, baptism unites us with Jesus’ death and resurrection, setting us free from sin. “Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him”. This isn’t calling us to cheap grace, but to the richest life possible in Jesus today!
Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? (Romans 6:1).
Let’s Pray
Yahweh, forgive us for times when we have taken your grace for granted. Holy Spirit, keep us from sin so that we may walk the way of life with Christ. In his name, Amen.

God’s Forbearance Leads To our Repentance

Today’s Verse reveals how we and others come to repentance. It’s all because of God’s kindness. But too often we assume that the threat of judgment is what leads to repentance. “If only we can show people how bad they are, then they will be sorry”, we think. Or perhaps if we can show them the consequences of their actions like some negative life outcomes, or the ultimate punishment of going to hell – then they will repent, right?
But the path to repentance is quite different. Instead, God is kind with us. God waits patiently for us to notice his kindness. Rather than showing us our consequences, God actually holds back our consequences, at least many of the worst ones. Holding back consequences is called forbearance. God forbears with us until we see His kindness.
Today, know it is God’s kindness that leads to our repentance. God’s example challenges us to somehow forbear other people’s unrepentant attitudes. It’s not our place to judge them or bring about their conse­quences. In fact, perhaps like Christ, we ought to help bear ­others’ consequences. We should show the kindness, ­patience, and forbearance that God has shown us.
Do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, forbearance and patience, not realising that God’s kindness is intended to lead you to repentance? (Romans 2:4).
 
Let’s Pray
Yahweh, this world is still full of vices. Father, help us to endure in forbearing with others, just as you have endured with us. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Genuine Repentance

We all want to be more like Jesus. Therefore, we make resolutions asking Him to help us, and try to behave differently. Yet despite our best efforts to do things God’s way, we slide back into old habits. Frustrated, we may ask Him, “Why can’t I change?”. The reason is, overcoming sinful attitudes and behaviours starts with genuine repentance, which has at least three steps.
3 Steps of Genuine Repentance
 
  1. Conviction. The Holy Spirit will reveal the areas in which we’ve sinned and convict us of wrongdoing. Through Scripture, the Spirit shows us God’s standard and what needs to change. Repentance begins with understanding where we have gone astray.
  1. Confession & Contrition. Contrition is grieving over our sinful habits is followed by confession to the Lord. Genuine sorrow arises from the knowledge that we’ve sinned against Him. In contrast, human unhappiness often comes from being caught misbehaving. Other times we are miserable because of where our choices led us, or feel shame that people know about our sin. True contrition is followed by humble confession.
  1. Commitment to action. Real repentance is complete when we wholeheartedly pledge to turn from our old behaviour and move toward righteous ways. God knows we won’t live perfectly, but He wants a surrendered heart that diligently seeks to obey Him.
 
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9).
Let’s Pray
Yahweh, thank you for your forgiveness. Thank you for not abandoning us for our mistakes, but for reaching out instead. Father, help convict me of sin and help me accept your mercy without shame. Thank you for the love you have poured out for me and all of your children. Help me live out of that love today. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

What Is Your Bathsheba?

“One evening David got up from his bed and walked around on the roof of the palace. From the roof, he saw a woman bathing. The woman was very beautiful, and David sent someone to find out about her. The man said, “She is Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam and the wife of Uriah the Hittite.” Then David sent messengers to get her. She came to him, and he slept with her. Then she went back home.” (2 Samuel 11:2-4).

Are you familiar with this story? King David slept with his top soldier’s wife whilst he was away in battle. David sent her back home and later found out she was pregnant. This act ultimately led King David to murder his soldier and her husband.
From this narrative, I’d like to highlight what David did not do when he was faced with temptation. Here’s a short list: He didn’t pray, he didn’t guard his eyes or guard his heart. David was a soldier, a warrior, but he didn’t put on his spiritual armour for daily battle. He left himself exposed for the enemy to attack and conquer.
Today, reflect on how many mornings of yours resemble that of David’s. What is your Bathsheba? Maybe it’s porn, alcohol, a co-worker, a church member, or a lying tongue… Only you know. However, I know this… we cannot afford to start our days off unarmed. Let’s make a pact to honour God with the first of our mornings. Honour him with daily prayer and dependence by putting on his armour; morning prayer, like breakfast, is the most important part of our day as christians.
Let’s Pray
Yahweh, thank you for your grace and mercy. Thank you for your forgiveness. Gifted to every one of us who have sinned in the most aweful way, for every time we have given in to a Bathsheba or done something that has displeased you. Lord, we give our heart to you to cleanse it and make it whole. Please renew our minds. We cannot do it ourselves, so we thank you for your strength. Now teach us how to use this strength daily, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Men, We Must Do Better

Brothers, we must lay aside our differences and find a way to reconcile with one another. It’s time to stop letting people use religion as a tool to divide instead of unite. As Christian men, we must forgive a lot quicker those who have wronged us. Letting go of the idea of getting back or making someone else feel the same pain they caused us. It’s time to let that go.
Brothers, It’s time to start living at a higher level of holiness. This lost world doesn’t need another Christian conforming to its ways, it needs Christians who are willing to transform this world through the power of the Word of God.
Today brothers, it’s time to start loving one another. Not just because it’s the right thing to do, but because it is the way God called us to live among one another. So whatever hurt, anger, or bitterness you may be holding inside…it’s time to let it go. Let go and let God have his way on earth as it is in heaven.
“Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.” (Ephesians 4:31-32).
Let’s Pray…
Yahweh, as a Christian man, I release all animosity right now. Father, I refuse to hold anything in my heart other than love for you, my fellow brothers and my sisters. I refuse to give an ounce of life to hatred and calloused behaviour. Instead, I choose your way, God. I choose to love and love unconditionally. In Jesus name, I pray, Amen.

My Brother, God Knows…

My brother, I know you haven’t forgotten. The pain is too fresh for it to fade to the back of your memory. In fact, that same pain may be present as you read this. Life’s pressures just don’t seem to let up. Almost as if they alternate to ensure that on any given day you feel the extreme pressure.
Your smile appears on your face after mustering up all the strength you have to show it. Truth be told, if people weren’t so nosey, you wouldn’t try to hide what you’re going through. The people closest to you, who know your toil, sympathize with you but have no solutions to offer. You only truly know your misery. But don’t forget, God’s knows too.
Every tear, every pain, and every loss you have suffered is well known to God. He is in tune with exactly what you’re going through. Though you may pray and feel like there’s only silence, He does hear you and He knows exactly what you’re going through, but now it’s time for you to experience a bit of what He had to go through.
Our brother Jesus endured the persecution, hate, and hurt from the people he loved. As he hung from the cross, he felt separation from his Father as many of us do. As if God left him to die alone. But as you know, God had already empowered Jesus with all the strength to endure to the end. The same goes for you.
Brother, take courage today and stay the course. Know that you have enough word in you to sustain and make it through the storm. Although it may be hard for you to accept all that you are going through, just know that God is always with you. You are not going through the pain alone. At the appointed time…you will stand victorious before man, in the name of our saviour Jesus Christ. So for the record…God has not forgotten. God is faithful and He will NEVER break his promise. My brother You will make it…
“Record my misery; list my tears on your scroll—are they not in your record?” (Psalm 56:8).
Let’s pray
Yahweh, I claim victory in your name today! I don’t care what I’m going through, how much it hurts, or how confusing it may be. I choose to trust you through it all. I don’t know why You chose me to go through this, but I know there is a reason that You will later reveal to me. Until then I will keep Your praises on my lips as my eyes release tears. I will sing thanks to the Father as the pressures in life build. I will surrender it all to Him. He deserves all the glory and honour. In Jesus’s name, Amen.

The Gloves Are Off

‘The gloves are off’ suggest that enough is enough. It’s time to draw the line in the sand. I’m no longer fighting the devil in the physical. It’s all about allowing God to fight for me.
Yes, the devil is on attack and he will not let up until you and your family are destroyed. As men of God, we cannot risk another moment fighting this spiritual fight with natural means. It’s not about politics or who is running for office. It’s not about the amount of money you make. Those things are important but they’re also distractions. It’s about God’s calling on your life and the direction you’re taking your family.
Remember, as men of God our primary goal is to make sure our children have a relationship with Christ. That through their relationship with us, their natural father, they can establish a real relationship with our Heavenly Father. The devil is aware of the power behind that and will do everything in his power to prevent it. But it won’t work. We have at our disposal, the most powerful weapon mankind has ever seen… Prayer.
Today, as spiritual God fearing men and women, it’s time to take off the gloves, fall to your knees and lift your hands in surrender to Christ. No more fighting in the physical. We are destined to lose.
Instead, take it to the spiritual arena where your victory is cemented. Let’s Speak over our family, pray for our children, and rebuke any attempt we see the devil making to destroy their confidence and identity in Christ. Declare war on the devil. Don’t fall for his distractions. He knows he doesn’t stand a chance against the power of prayer. So let’s use it.
“The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.” (2 Corinthians 10:4).
Let’s Pray
Yahweh, it’s in your name I declare to the devil … you can’t have my family. I can’t stop you from trying and you can’t stop me from praying. Your feeble attempts to destroy what God ordained will not come to pass. I serve a God much greater than any deceit you can come up with. You don’t fight fair and I don’t care. I will beat you down, knock you out, and annihilate you with the power of prayer. In Jesus’ name, I pray this prayer, Amen!

Breaking News Part 5: Anointing Brings Power, Courage and Ability

Not only has God equipped you, but He is also working in you. He has already lined up everything you need to live a victorious life. You were created to excel! Greatness is inside of you. Don’t settle where you are. Have the attitude, “I am anointed. I can accomplish my dreams. I can overcome any obstacle”. God has equipped you with everything you need to fulfil your destiny through His Word!  

The scripture says, as believers in Christ, we are anointed. The word “anointing” is the power of God which gives you courage, strength and ability. That means you are well able to do what God has called you to do.  

Today, because of your gift of anointing, you can accomplish your goals. You can become more creative with talents and success. You can overcome any obstacle and you’re equipped with strength for every battle! Remember, the heavenly hosts that are with you are greater than the forces that are against you! Hallelujah! 

“Every Scripture is God-breathed…so that the man of God may be complete and proficient, well fitted and thoroughly equipped for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:16–17).

Let’s Pray 

Yahweh, thank You for equipping me. Father, thank You for anointing me and empowering me through your Spirit. God help me to stay focused on Your Word and Your plan for my life today and in the future. I bless You and honour You alone. In Christ’ name, Amen.

Breaking News Part 4: You Are Anointed with Joy

Psalm 45 has been called a ‘King’s Wedding Song’. It brims with royal pageantry and wedding imagery. The bridegroom here is a King of God’s people, preparing to marry the one he loves. This Psalm was probably used at many royal weddings in ancient Israel.

Later in Israel’s history, this Psalm came to be seen as a picture of the promised Messiah-King, who would come to deliver and unite with God’s people. In the New Testament, God’s people recognize Jesus as the Messiah-Saviour and see the church (God’s people) as his bride, based on teachings about a wedding feast in the kingdom of Heaven (Matthew 22:2; 25:1; Revelation 19:7; 21:2).

The psalmist talks about being anointed with “the oil of joy”. The joy we have in Christ as our Saviour can be with us always. Yet we are often distracted by worries and troubles in this world, forgetting the amazing blessings and potential we have as Christ’s anointed ones.

Today, weddings are seen as joyous events. So, even as we deal realistically with the struggles of this world just as Jesus does, we can look forward to our wedding and full life with Him in the kingdom of God. We can share that good news with others, so they too can have this anointed joy – now and forever. With whom can you share this breaking news of a joyful of life today?

You love righteousness and hate wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy. (Psalm 45:7).

Let’s Pray

Yahweh, I long for a joy-filled life forever with you. Father, thank you for anointing me with your joy. God guide me to share it with others, for your sake. In Christ’s name, Amen.

Breaking News Part 3: You Have an Anointing

Some years ago, without my knowledge, I was given a counterfeit 20 pound note. I didn’t realise it until the lady at the check-out eyed me suspiciously because it wasn’t the real thing. Thankfully, I wasn’t charged with a crime. But for a short time, I felt caught between the forces of truth and evil.

Two forces are at work in the world today: truth is working by the Holy Spirit, and evil is working by the energy of Satan, the devil, the father of lies. We feel this tension in our lives every day. Sadly, many Christians have one foot in the world and one foot in the life of faith. The Bible calls this lukewarm belief (Revelation 3:15-16).

Today, we are living in a crisis of faith. The spirit of the antichrist is working in this world. It is vitally important to stand strong in faith and to be able to recognize the lies and deceit of the evil one. Having daily devotions and a consistent life of prayer is a beautiful way to carry out your anointing. This anointing, the Bible tells us, is given to us by God and remains in us. Take comfort in this truth. Satan cannot snatch us away from God’s claim on our lives because of our anointing. You have an anointing from the Holy One, and that’s the truth.

The anointing you received from him … is real, not counterfeit – [so] just as it has taught you, remain in him. (1 John 2:27).

Let’s Pray

Yahweh, thank you for your unfailing love and constant promises. Father, I praise you that my anointing is real and sent by you. Please Keep me strong, I pray in your name, Amen.

Break News Part 2: The Anointing Brings Prosperity

In the ancient world, anointing a person with oil had several meanings. It was used to symbolize that a person was chosen by God. Anointing a person with oil was a sign of God’s approval. People were anointed as an act of sanctification, to make one holy. Early Christians were encouraged to pray and anoint those who were sick with oil.

In scripture, David doesn’t tell us just what he was thinking in Psalm 23, when he wrote, “Thou anointest my head with oil”.   Was it the moment that the prophet Samuel visited his father Jesse, having been sent by God, to anoint a new King? Or at a coronation ceremony many years later, when he did become King? Or was it at a moment he had asked for prayer, and he was anointed again?

Today, the words of Psalm 23 give us encouragement. For as we read it, we too, are assured of God’s love and presence in every part of our lives. As David wrote the words, “Thou anointest my head with oil”, he celebrated both the physical touch of oil and the gift of God’s Spirit, being poured on him. The anointing meant that David feasted at a table, knowing God’s grace was overflowing without limit and end.  Like David, the anointing assures us of a shepherd who would lead us in every circumstance. One who would always be present to give comfort, strength, and prosperity.

“You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil.” (Psalm 23:5).

Let’s Pray

Yahweh, thank You for anointing my drooping head with oil to revive me. Father, in this dry and weary land, I need Your refreshment in my life. God thank You for knowing just when I need a good word, a kind gesture, a phone call, or any other encouraging thing in my life. Lord, thank You for pouring the fresh oil of hope over my head at just the perfect time. Thank you for the Grace and prosperity the oil represents. You are truly a Good Shepherd, in Jesus’ name, Amen.

Breaking News Part 1: The Anointing Destroys The Yoke

In today’s verse, Isaiah the prophet, brought some exceptionally good breaking news to King Hezekiah. King Sennacherib of Assyria had set his sights on Judah. He captured her cities, demanded exorbitant tributes, and mocked the God they served. In desperation, King Hezekiah went to the Temple to seek the Lord’s assistance.

Scripture says God sent a message through Isaiah: He would lift the burden under which Hezekiah was bound. He would destroy the yoke with which King Sennacherib had controlled and crushed his people. And He would do so because of the anointing. God honoured His anointing, His word, and His purposes.

Satan is the enemy of our souls, just like Sennacherib. He has set his sights on crushing us. He bounds us down with burdens and lays heavy yokes across our necks to steal, kill, and destroy us. But but the bible reminds us when the enemy comes in like a flood, God will raise a standard against him (Isaiah 59:19).

Today’s breaking news is the anointing destroys the yoke and lifts burdens! The anointing brings the power that mends broken hearts, resurrects dead marriages, restores broken homes, causes barren wombs to bring forth life, brings immovable walls tumbling down, and gathers the wandering to the cross. It lifts every burden and destroys every yoke! Hallelujah!

It shall come to pass in that day that his burden will be taken away from your shoulder, and his yoke from your neck, and the yoke will be destroyed because of the anointing oil.

(Isaiah 10:27).

Let’s Pray

Yahweh, please bless me and keep me. God lift every burden from my shoulders and be gracious unto me and give me His peace. God give me your anointing through your Spirit to destroy every yoke under which I struggle so I can be set free by the power of Christ. It’s in his name I pray, Amen!

 

As seen on
