Having Victory

The rebellious is restored by repentance, and repentance is maintained by brokenness.

To stay broken there must be appreciation and a clear understanding of the benefits of your relationship with Jesus. Jesus commands “take my yoke.” A “yoke” is a harness that is attached to two oxen (or other animals), then attached to a plow, enabling the pair to pull together. Jesus is saying, “We can do this together. Place the weight on me and let’s keep moving forward.” That weight includes the bitterness, anger, confusion, or rejection that are the deep roots of rebellion. Look at it this way: we are all “yoked” to something. Will it be Jesus or rebellion?

Rebellion prefers you heavy so you cannot lift your hands in victory. Jesus took all the weight so you can be free to worship and give thanks.

Repeat this prayer with me: Father, in the name of Jesus, I decide to give you my “yoke” today and I renounce the spirit of rebellion, casting it out of my life, now. Holy Spirit, please fill me with gratitude and surround me in your love. In the name of Jesus. Amen!

God wants you to prosper, even as your soul prospers, and we come in agreement with your victory.
