Burdens are heavy loads that causes anxiety and distress. They make one to become weary and to lose hope. Burdens causes one to lose focus of life. Not living a purposeful life but strives to survive. This is what the Israelites did for many years while in Egypt. It results in oppression.
The Israelites were oppressed in Egypt for many years until the Lord lifted the burdens.
Exodus 6:6 Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great judgments:
I don’t know what burden you have been carrying around. What situation has caused you to be hopeless in life but the Lord says this month he will lift up burdens.
He will free his people. That situation that has caused you sleeplessness is leaving. The thing that troubled your mind will no longer trouble you.
The Lord is a burden lifter. All we need to do is surrender our issues at the place of prayer and God will deal with them. Psalms 55:22 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
There was a woman who was bent in the Bible for eighteen years. For these years the burden was so heavy that she couldn’t even lift herself. She suffered from this infirmity for so long it oppressed her until the day she encountered Jesus and was made whole. What is that burden you have carried and has now become part of your life? This season I encourage you to press into his presence and your life will not be the same again. The Lord is breaking the yoke of every burden, breaking the rod of the oppressor to liberate his people.
Isaiah 14:3 And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy fear and the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve.
The Lord is restoring his people and healing their wounds.
What to do:-
-Seek after God.
Matthew 11:28-29 Come unto me, all ye that labour 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 ye shall find rest unto your souls.
-Pray without ceasing.
Just like Hannah sought the Lord until the burden of childlessness was lifted, this is what we ought to do. Stay in pray and God will answer.
Love God with all your heart, mind and strength. Loving God connotes to also obeying his statutes and adhering to be lead by him. Do not allow circumstances to predict your relationship with God. No, love and serve him wholeheartedly. In serving him the burdens are lifted and we are freed.
-Trust in God’s word.
This season do not lean on your own understanding. Do not also listen to strange voices. But be rooted into God’s word. Allow him to free you.
Hebrews 4:3 For we which have believed do enter into rest.
