Many of us are carrying burdens that are beyond us- loads, which we needlessly bear. If only we knew that Jesus is our burden-bearer, we would drop our burdens at His feet.“Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah.” .The Bible commands that we bear one another’s burden. But ultimately, Jesus is our burden-bearer. Many people are still mourning the death of a certain pastor, who died recently in Lagos in June 2021.
How does God bear our burdens? He does this in several ways. He bore our sins on the cross . He makes our problems go away . Like Paul, He gives you the grace to endure the burden . We grow in patience through endurance. He causes the enemy to be put in disarray. That is, He troubles those who trouble you . He bears our burden by comforting us in our tribulations .God’s kind of rest comes through Jesus.
Jesus gives us rest from our worries and anxieties . He gives us rest amid the turmoil of life. There is the rest God gives to His children, when the storms of life rage. When John Wesley encountered the Moravians at the sea during his voyage from America, he was challenged by their calmness and courage, while the turbulence of the sea raged. Their unusual courage and calmness in the storm convinced John Wesley that he was not yet born again.
Jesus gives us rest from the many fears we face. God has not given us the spirit of fear, but the spirit of love and sound mind. Finally, He also gives us eternal rest when we die . However, these blessings are only for those who respond to the invitation of Jesus to come to Him for rest.
