Get the app40 Days for Following JesusSample
Day 1: Life at a Jesus pace
(If you missed it check out the series intro and overview.)
Prepare by inviting the Holy Spirit to help you, and focus on your desire to follow Jesus.
Read the passage of scripture: Matthew 11:29.
They are two important things to note about the words of Jesus in this passage.
- Firstly, a yoke is a wooden cross piece that fastened two animals and attached them to a plough for farming.
- Secondly, the “yoke of a rabbi” described the teachings of each Jewish rabbi (religious teacher) and was the basis of learning for their followers.
In this passage, Jesus is inviting us to attach ourselves to him and his teachings, walk at His pace and learn His way of living which is full of grace, gentleness and humility.
Meditate on the words of Jesus in the key verse: Matthew 11:29.
Ask God:
- What do you want to say to me about this verse?
- What are you asking me to say “yes” to?
- Who can I tell about this?

About this Plan
“Follow Me”. At the beginning of his ministry Jesus invited a few unlikely and unqualified people to change the course of their normal lives and embrace a new way of living. Whether you realise it or not, it is an undeniable fact that these people have altered the course of human history. Following Jesus is a simple invitation and a lifetime pursuit and it is something that we are all invited to do. It is the urgent task of every Christian.
