GIVE GOD YOUR BURDEN…


Psalm 55:22 – “Cast your burden on the LORD, and He will sustain you.  He will NEVER allow the righteous to be shaken.”

Psalm 56:3-4 – “When I am afraid, I will trust You.  In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I shall not be afraid.  What can mere man do to me?”

God wants us to realize that God’s power and wisdom can and does flow through our words and deeds. The Psalms are incredibly beneficial, for they enlighten and encourage powerfully.  

For example:

Psalm 55:22 – ”Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.”

Psalm 56:8 – “You have taken account of my wanderings; Put my tears in Your bottle.  Are they not in Your book?”

Psalm 56:11 – In God I trust, I shall not be afraid.  What can man do to me?”

It is important and necessary that we realize the Burden that we give to Him is Our Burden. There are no qualifications on the burden or why it came into being. We are to take it to God. As we do, we have two promises—sustained and unshaken. Wow!

In those times of uncertainty, we bring our hearts and thoughts captive and Trust!  His Word is our anchor.   He person our confidence. Fear of man rejected.

To amplify how much God loves and cares, the Psalmist reminds us that God is aware of our wanderings.   Wanderings?  Yes, how often do we discover we do not know what to do or where to go?  He sees it.  Then, a revelation that causes me to weep with Joy.

He puts All, not some, but All our tears in His bottle (Big Bottle) and writes them in His book. That is Amazing! He keeps every tear we have cried before Him. He records them—the number, the cause, and the time. Your hurts, sorrows, pain, and questions are ever before Him.

God does nothing without purpose.   If He is bottling and recording our tears, then be assured that for each tear, there is a reason to smile coming.

No tear is cried alone. The hosts of heaven are witnesses, and the angels stand ready to wipe them from our eyes and pour in the healing oil.  As we are healed, we become God’s comforters, comforting those needing comfort. 

Jesus knows every tear, fear, failure, and disappointment. He is not just aware; He cares enough to heal.

I encourage you to receive the promise to be healed! Remember that every tear is in God’s bottle and recorded in His book. Every tear will become a weapon to defeat the enemy and free captives. Let the Holy Spirit free you from your prison. Weeping lasts for the night, but joy comes in the morning. It is your morning!

May the LORD be with you, providing all you need and more to pursue and achieve the dreams He has placed in your hearts.
