The Spirit And The Bride Say Come

Matthew 11:28 " Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest".

The invitation, Jesus said "come" to him, a different command than that of the Pharisees who said you must do this or that. Jesus offered a different kind of yoke. Jesus is asking us to come to Him so that we could receive a well fitting yoke, one that is not a burden, but will bring us rest. Jesus yoke is tied to the grace of God and results in salvation, based on faith, and not on personal effort, we need to only believe. Jesus wants those of us who follow him to throw off the yoke of legalism we were once hitched. To cast all of our cares, concerns, problems, and circumstances on Him. Jesus' plan to lift the yoke off all who are shackled to their circumstances.

Jesus invites the weary to come to Him so they can experience rest for their souls. The key to experiencing this rest is having a right relationship with God, something that can happen only if you have a personal relationship with Jesus. We all have responsibilities that drain us and difficulties that wear us down. We can let the world drag us down its weary path, or we can join our lives with Jesus, who wants us  to know that He's eager to have us in His yoke of care, guiding us, giving us help for our present needs, and assuring us that He has a plan for us that includes rest, peace, and everlasting life.

So he tell us to come, leave where you are, the situation you are in and come to him.The promise is when you come to Him with everything he will give you rest. Rest from worry, from need, from doubt, rest from the cares of this world, for He has over come the world. Come seek first His kingdom and He will supply your every need. Come to Jesus and live life everlasting in a peace which surpasses all understanding...
