Do you want rest for your soul…yes or no?

How to get the truth and rest for your soul...


Jesus therefore said to those Jews that had believed him, If ye abide in my word, then are you truly my disciples; and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free...John 8:31-32.


I am not a Jew but this is true for me and for you…if we abide in the teachings of Jesus we will know the truth and the truth will set us free from the lies or false teachings. Jesus teachings lead us to life eternal and heaven our home…


Jesus said…All things have been delivered unto me of my Father: and no one knows the Son, save the Father; neither does any know the Father, save the Son, and He to whomsoever the Son wills to reveal Him. Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and you shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light...Matthew 11:27-30.


Do you want a light and easy burden…a yoke from Jesus yes or no? A yoke makes two oxen work together as one…Jesus is saying if you take His teaching on you He will come along side of you and help you to work as one with Him. If you do then you find rest for your soul. Do you want to have rest for your soul…free from evil…yes or no?


…What commandment is the first of all? Jesus answered, The first is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God, the Lord is one: and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength. The second is this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these...Mark 12:28-31.


Jesus burden is not hard to be born…the first thing to get right is to love God with all of your heart (feelings), mind (decisions), soul (your eternal life), spirit (the part of you not flesh), and your strength (your giving it your full effort). The second is treating fellow man just as yourself. We can always love God more and always love our neighbors more we can work on these two for the rest of eternity.


Prayer

Father we ask you would yoke us together with Jesus so we can learn the truth and practice what is right by You and our fellow man. Please meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal us from our past in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
