The Beautiful Life Daily Devotional
RECEIVE REST
Author: Prophet Cosmas Inyang
Pay attention to this Bible verse:
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am peaceful and meek in my heart and you will find rest for your souls.
Mathew 11:29 (Aramaic Bible in plain translation)
In the context of my discussion today, let me define Soul as the faculty of one’s Will, Intellect and Emotions.
We are living in a time that people are under a lot of mental and emotional stress but thankfully The Lord Jesus has given to us and revealed to us the recipe’ for mental and emotional rest.
The term Take my yoke upon you is written from an agricultural perspective.
A yoke is that which is used to bind two cattle together and they are fastened to a carriage and because of the yoke upon them, the two cattle are always together.
Now The Lord Jesus is saying Take my yoke upon you, do you get it now? It means lets remain together and on the same frequency and vibration in every state of mind and being.
And He says learn from me, look at me, follow me, for in my state of mind, heart and being, I am peaceful and meek.
In other words, be peaceful as I am peaceful, and be meek as I am meek, Therein you will find mental and emotional rest. (rest for your soul)
Peace is freedom from disturbance and interference.
It is a state of harmony, calmness, quietness and tranquility.
Most importantly, it is a consciousness. And because it is a consciousness it leaves you with the responsibility of upholding it.
A special kind of peace has been given to you by The Lord Jesus and that is THE PEACE OF THE LORD JESUS,
Please acknowledge and uphold this particular peace in your consciousness always.
Everything is controlled from inside out,
When you uphold, radiate and release it from inside, it will reflect outside.
You release PEACE to make situations outside conform through your consciousness and your voicing the word PEACE into that situation or atmosphere.
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you.
It is not as the world gives that I give to you.
Do not let your heart be troubled and do not let it be afraid.”
- Lord Jesus (John 14:27 Aramaic in Plain English)
Say this out loud many times:
I accept and receive The Peace of The Lord Jesus.
I have The Peace of The Lord Jesus.
I am in a state of The Peace of The Lord Jesus today and everyday.
