Take My yoke to find Renewal rest, Blessed quiet - Oct 2020

🕐 5 mins


''*Come to Me*, all who are weary and heavily burdened, and *I will give you rest* [refreshing your souls with salvation]. *Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me* [following Me as My disciple], for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest (renewal, blessed quiet) for your souls . Matthew 11:28-29.

Jesus invited His listeners to come to Him and take His yoke, to commit to Him and put themselves under His authority. The ask is that to approach Jesus and to take His own yoke on us, the way a farmer would put one on his livestock. It means giving Jesus control and letting Him direct our efforts.

He has helped us so far 9 months in this year (Ebenezer 1Sam 7:12) and He is more than enough to navigate us to the rest of year and years to come (Yhwh Jireh Gen 22:14).

Let's walk with Him closely in Oct 2020 to direct our steps and efforts in Him. The Lord, God will help us to overcome fears, to have an increased Faith, to cross Jordan, to conquer the Land, to take our named possessions, to defeat the schemes of enemies, to delight in His presence, to enjoy the peace that surpasses all understanding and to command the storms to clam down. In Jesus Name, Amen.

He Makes me lie down in green pastures; He Leads me beside quiet waters. He Restores my soul; He Guides me in the paths of righteousness For His Name’s sake. Psalm 23:2-3

God rewriting life stories

God rewriting life stories Reference Ps 18:20-24 Psalm 18:20–24 (The Message) captures David’s reflection on how God restored and renewed his life when he fully surrendered to Him. In Eugene Peterson’s paraphrase, the language feels vivid and personal—more like a heartfelt testimony than a formal psalm—showing how God restores, remakes, and redefines those who turn to Him. Amen. "God rewrote the text of my life when I opened the book of my heart to His eyes" is perhaps the most powerful image here. It shows that when David welcomed God into his innermost being, God transformed his story—redeeming it, reshaping it, and giving it new meaning and purpose. Hallelujah!  David says God “made my life complete” when he laid everything before Him, and that God “rewrote the text” of his life. This language highlights honest surrender, repentance, and the experience of being restored by God. 2 Corinthians 5:17 makes the same basic claim in a more compact form: “if anyone is in Chris...

I will Bless the Lord

I will bless the Lord, at all times...  Reference: Ps 34:1 - I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. One of the most important attitudes we can embrace in life is making it a habit to bless Him continually. I use the word “lifestyle” on purpose—it’s not just for when we feel like it, but also for when we don’t, because it’s essential. It’s not only about what we do, but who we are.  David’s steady commitment was clear in his words. He received countless blessings from the Lord even before he became well-known. Before everyone knew his name, the Lord knew him for his constant praise and gratitude. Out in the fields, tending sheep in the green pastures, he would sing, dance, and bless the Lord. That was David's preparation to the bigger assignments.  Verse 4 from this chapter really spoke to me: I sought the Lord, trusting in His word, and He answered me, delivering me from all my fears. So, I bless the Lord—Amen, Hallelujah. He...

Real battle, Different rules

Real battle, different rules Refer 2 Cor 10:3-6- NIV- For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. 4 The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds . 5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 6 And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is complete. Paul's tone changes sharply in 2 Corinthians 10. After pleading gently for generosity toward the poor, he turns to face his critics, and he is no longer soft-spoken. They claimed he was bold on paper but timid in person, a man who threatened discipline from a distance and would never dare follow through face to face. In short, they questioned whether he had the apostolic authority he claimed. Paul's answer was to describe his ministry as spiritual warfare. The world is unprinciple...
