TRADE THE YOKE

TRADE THE YOKE

 Matthew 11:30

 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
--------------------------------------------
This is the hour. You have moved a long journey. You have tried to make the thing happen by your own. But you forgot the formula. You forgot the simple thing.

When the captain sails out to the sea and remembers he forgot the steer at the beach, does he continue to sail? No.! But how would he have sailed without the steer. He only took the light ones thinking he would use the other bigger ones at the deeper sea.. only to forget them at the beach. He will obviously turn back to get the strongest. 

There is a point of life where you moved and have to stop to trade the yoke. 
Many of us try so hard to push by ourselves and forget about the strongest steer. We forget the simple formula. If 1 + 1 =2, however much you tried to bring the strongest machines to change that fact to 11 , the fact will remain in it's simplicity. You may want the answer using the might machine, but mere use of fingers will give you the answer you need. 

There is a simple formula given to us here within scripture. It is the idea of trade. It calls somebody here to take his or her yoke, and give it to Christ; then take Christ's yoke upon himself. For the yoke of Christ is easy.

The trade for a lighter yoke is a profitable one since the lighter yoke has better returns on investment. Christ calls you to seek His personality and embrace His being. The world we live in has resources that are simply determined by the spiritual. Focusing on the physical to gain the resources won't make cream out of the milk. You need to turn around and go back to the beach to pick up the strongest and yet simple steer. Pick up the heart to serve God, it is the simple yoke in Christ. Pick up the heart to serve others, it is the simple yoke in Christ. Pick the heart to give what you have to other,...give your knowledge, your love, your time, your money ...it is a simple yoke. See that you seek the face of Jehovah. Such a trade is all profitable. You cannot fail when you trade the yoke you have carried for a while with something lighter.
If you want your ship to run faster and further, trade the yoke.

                       GOD BLESS YOU

He himself was also endowed with some of those beauties. And that being a leader at the highest ranks, he saw the true beauties of life to their deepest. Nevertheless, he developed pride and wanted to own all of those beauties. He want to step in the place of God and have full charge of them all.

HOLD IT

SUNDAY SERVICE  SERMON:                           HOLD IT   INTRO :  It is easy to go through life and feel embarrassed. And because of such embarrassment, it also easy to feel like throwing out something to compensate for your bad feelings. You feel you should throw out a word at someone, you feel you should throw off the relationship, you feel you should throw off the patience.  There is something that happens behind the scene that we never know about. And if we knew it, we would understand the power of holding it to our selves.   PROB : The problem we have is that we want to seek for compensation in short times, for revenge within no times...and never want to hold reactions for long.   PURP :  To enable us hold our emotions and anxieties in a world of intolerance.       >>> Christ was a man who faced a lot of persecution. He was always sought for by his enemies. They wanted him dead at all cost. Reaching a point of shamelessly paying one of his disciple to bet

THE GREAT BLISS

THE GREAT BLISS Isaiah 42:9  See, the former things have taken place, and new things I declare; before they spring into being I announce them to you.” -------------------------------------------- When there is something God is yet to do, He has to get tools within you to accomplish it. And one tool to use in you is the mind you got. God cannot accomplish great things when the mind and heart are stuck in former things...in former years. Before He made Mary have the great son He had to make her forget the former things and focus on the new things. When the Bible clearly says that God has a good plan for us and it assures us that God has no harmful plan for us; this means that what could be holding us back is not up to God!. He has the good plan already. But the nature of our minds may be holding onto the former and never letting it go. Because of the pains you had in the last year, you still revise that and experience pains again.  But there is something new. The Lord has tol
