3 | His Yoke? | Matt 11:29 | Asis | 95677 | ||
In the time of Jesus people carried their burdens by the use of a yoke. A piece of wood carved to fit the shoulders evenly and comfortabley. The burdens were suspended from each end of the yoke. See Jesus didn't say take the yoke of the oxen upon you He said take my yoke. What could He have been carrying upon His yoke? New American Standard Bible Isa. 9:6 through Isa. 9:7 (NASB) 6 For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. 7 There will be no end to the increase of His government or of peace, On the throne of David and over his kingdom, To establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness From then on and forevermore. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will accomplish this. The government, the rule, the dominion of God is upon His shoulders. His yoke. When you let Jesus govern, rule, have dominion over your life then you will enter into His rest. Jesus wants us to submit to His authority and let Him rule our lives. Anything that we do of our own is not pleasing to God. We are to be His instruments of righteousness. By the way an instrument is something that is played by another not by itself. |
