Respite For the Weary
Luke 4:18
Jesus said, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim release to the cap- tives, and recovery to the blind, to set free those who are downtrodden.”
Galatians 5:1
It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.
John 8:31-32
Jesus said, “If you abide in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”
Psalm 142:7
Bring my soul out of prison,
So that I may give thanks to Your name; The righteous will surround me,
For You will deal bountifully with me.
Romans 6:6-7, 11
Knowing this, that our old self was crucified with Him, that our body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin; for he who has died is freed from sin...Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Jesus Christ
My Child,
I came to give you freedom. Do not let the worries of this world entangle you. I am bigger than your problems, and I am stronger than your addictions. Give them to me, so that I can then fill your empty hands and heart with abundant, yet intangible riches: for- giveness, redemption, and the power of My Spirit.
Immanuel
For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who is every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Hebrews 4:15
Dear Lord God,
We praise you for your plan. The Son of Man came to be like us so that he could sympathize with us in every way. Jesus felt our same feelings. He understands the depth of our emotions and meets us there. Thank you for this truth. In His Name, Amen.
