Tag: What the Bible says about giving our burdens to God

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-4-23

Psalm 44:21 (NKJV) 21 Would not God search this out? For He knows the secrets of the heart.

We never know what goes on behind closed doors. We never know what people are going through inside.

Even within our own hearts, we may be hurting or struggling and have never told a sole what burdens we carry.

It may have weighed us down for years.

Are we tired of carrying this weight?

It’s time to let out the secrets. It’s time to get free from being in prison to ourselves and our unspoken burdens.

It’s OK to share what we have endured; God already knows.

If we remain in this hidden state, the burden of the secret will just grow heavier each day and each year that goes by. And it can eat us up from the inside, out.

God sees it all and He can help us get free.

What goes on behind your closed door? How do you feel when no one else can see you?

When you lay in bed at night, what taunts you?

Matthew 11:28 (NKJV) 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Let the truth be told; no more secrets.

Live a life free of the things that taunt you, and rest easy.

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-25-19

Matthew 11:30 (NKJV) 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

Let it out.

We need to open our mouth in prayer and release what we have been carrying.

Whatever you are going through, or helping someone go through, the weight of it must be released or surrendered to God.

If we try to carry it, it will mess with us and interfere with the things we need to continue on in.

Just recently I spent a week helping someone get through a bad situation. I know that only God knew what I was dealing with. The person themselves had no idea what was going on in the atmosphere around them.

I don’t even think I fully comprehend most of what was happening. But I could feel the weight of it, and it was heavy.

When it was over, I was in prayer the next day, and what I felt come off me or my spirit man was sadness and sorrow. I had never felt this to such a degree as I felt it that day. But, thank God He was there. And I left it at His feet.

He is faithful to lift the weight of what we are going through or what we may be helping others go through. After we have helped with our part, it’s important to remember to let go or release it all to God, and be free from it.

Some of us have never been taught to release it. But it is a necessity. And if we don’t release it, we will feel the weight, the numbness, the constant dwelling on it. It can even bring confusion at times.

It’s not ours to carry. Let it go.

1 Peter 5:7 (NKJV) 7 casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-24-17

Psalm 55:22 (NKJV) 22 Cast your burden on the Lord, And He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.

One day as I was on my knees praying, I was heavyhearted with so many things. I heard the Lord say to me in this very gentle, but yet firm voice, “you are not the Savior, you know”. I replied back to Him, “Oh Lord, of course I’m not. You are!”. “Well”, the Lord said, “your actions show differently”.

Suddenly I realized what was happening. I had gotten so busy and concerned about the things I was seeing and hearing, that I neglected to take the time I needed to stop and pray about them. Instead, I carried them.

More things kept coming and piling up. It was getting so heavy on me it began to affect me physically. I was getting tired, moody, and I started to get an attitude. That happens when you are carrying a heavy load and you don’t get God’s help.

You see, when we pray and we give the things we are concerned about to God, He takes them, leaving us lighter and free.

Yep. So if you are feeling this way, let me say to you what I heard the Lord say to me; You are not the Savior you know.

Give those things that you are carrying to the Lord. Tell Him about it and leave it there. He will deal with them accordingly as we trust Him with them. He knows what it will take to fix them.

We were not made to carry them, but to cast them.
