DELIVERANCE FROM PHYSICAL BURDENS

Memorise:
And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. .. Matthew 9:35

Read:
Isaiah 61:1-4

Message

In John 19:16-17, some Roman soldiers were leading Jesus to Golgotha to be crucified, and they made Him carry a heavy cross. He had been thoroughly beaten earlier and must have been very weak, yet they made Him carry this heavy burden by Himself. On the way, they met a man from Cyrene named Simon, and I believe that God prompted them to compel him to assist Jesus in carrying the cross to the place He was to be crucified (Matthew 27:32). Simon is an example of a burden bearer; he helped Jesus to lift His heavy burden.

Beloved, Jesus Christ wants to help you carry every burden that might be weighing you down. This is why He said that you should come to Him with whatever burdens you may be carrying so that He can relieve you of them and give you rest (Matthew 11:28).

It is important to note that there are different categories of burdens. Today,I will discuss physical burdens. For example, Naaman had a physical burden, which was in the form of an incurable disease (2 Kings 5:1). Likewise, Luke 13:10-17 tells us about a woman with a spirit of infirmity who was bent double. Everywhere she went, people could see the visible manifestation of the burden she was carrying; no matter how hard she tried, she couldn 't stand up straight. Also, in John 5:2-9, the Bible tells the story of a man who had been by the pool of Bethesda for 38 years. He had a long-standing physical burden, and I imagine that his family and friends had abandoned him because of his infirmity. By God 's mercies, however, Jesus, the Burden Bearer, approached him and lifted his long-standing burden instantly.

Mark 3:1-6 also tells the story of a man who had a physical deformity. One of his hands was withered, meaning that it was dead and was no longer useful. He was limited because he could only use one of his hands. However, when the Burden Bearer met him at the synagogue, He had mercy on him and made the withered hand whole like the other. I pray for you that in every area you may be experiencing limitations due to a physical ailment, the Almighty God will step into your case and restore you completely.

Beloved, are you feeling overwhelmed by any physical burden? Do not despair; rather, approach God 's throne of grace and cast it upon Him. He will carry your burdens for you and remove every limitation in your life.

RCCG Hymn

Rock of Ages, cleft for me

Rock of Ages, cleft for me.
Let me hide myself in Thee!
Let the water and the blood.
From Thy riven side which flowed.
Be of sin the double cure;
Cleanse me from its guilt and power.
Not the labours of my hands.
Can fulfill Thy law's demands;
Could my zeal no respite know.
Could my tears for ever flow.
All for sin could not atone.
Thou must save and Thou alone.
Nothing in my hand I bring,
Simply to Thy cross I cling
Naked, come to Thee for dress.
Helpless, look to Thee for grace.
Foul, I to the fountain fly
Wash me. Saviour, or I die.
While I draw this fleeting breath.
When my eyelids close in death.
When I soar to worlds unknown.
See Thee on Thy judgement throne.
Rock of Ages, cleft for me.
Let me hide myself in Thee.
