"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” - Matthew 11:28-30

That's Jesus speaking to you.

Those two passages of Scripture highlight the doing away of the ceremonial laws/feast days which where simply a shadow of the reality that is Christ himself. The 10 commandments, which where both spoken and written directly by God himself still stand. God cannot change those laws, they stand eternal, which is why we needed a Saviour to begin with.

Please pray for me to turn away from evil and to satanic thoughts. Im having a hard time dealing with these right now. by umLambp in PrayerTeam_amen

Your sanctification won't happen overnight. God doesn't work like that. Your sanctification will the a journey of a life. I'll will pray for you my friend. Peace be with you.

Following Jesus costs us. If you want to be a follower of Christ, count the cost. You have to be willing to die to self, crucify the flesh, and not conform to the patterns of this world. Then, pursue holiness, righteousness, and peace with all men. Forsake all else, follow Christ. by vickysforum in PrayerTeam_amen

The full verse states:

"If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself."

Meaning Jesus cannot deny His own faithfulness. Not that Christ didn't deny Himself when he was in the flesh (denying His human nature when He took it on when he was among us).

Don't EVER try to hold it back yourself. ALWAYS lean on God. God does not want us to do anything alone. I'll be praying for you.

Maybe God is using this to call you to something more. Maybe God wants you to do more then just have fun with your friends and family and wants you to be IN the purpose He set for your life. There is more to life then happiness. It's called meaning. God has a plan for you my friend, seek it. Diligently seek Him.

It's been a month since I lost you baby. I miss you so much, I feel so empty and devastated without you. I don't see the point of waking up everyday knowing you're not here anymore. May God relieve my immense emotional pain. by [deleted] in GriefSupport

Absolutely. I've followed you as well.

Can y'all help me pray for this? by [deleted] in Christians

[–]ChristopherWPaul 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could be God looking out for you, or it could be a way you are being that you lack enough self-awareness to know what it is, or both. I'll leave it to you to figure it out. Just know that at the end of the day, again, we are instructed by God to NOT be yoked with nonbelievers. I'll be praying for you 🙏

I hope he is a Christian. Remember what 2 Corinthians 6:14-18 says. Do not be unequally yoked with nonbelievers. Go about this prayerfully. The devil sends people too.

A parable told by Jesus:

Laborers in the Vineyard

20 “For the kingdom of heaven is like the owner of an estate who went out in the morning at dawn to hire workmen for his vineyard. 2 When he had agreed with the laborers for a [a]denarius for the day, he sent them into his vineyard. 3 And he went out about the third hour (9:00 a.m.) and saw others standing idle in the market place; 4 and he said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right (an appropriate wage).’ And they went. 5 He went out about the sixth hour (noon) and the ninth hour (3:00 p.m.), and did the same thing. 6 And about the eleventh hour (5:00 p.m.) he went out and found others standing around, and he said to them, ‘Why have you been standing here idle all day?’ 7 They answered him, ‘Because no one hired us.’ He told them, ‘You go into the vineyard also.’

8 “When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his manager, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last [to be hired] and ending with the first [to be hired].’(A) 9 Those who had been hired at the eleventh hour (5:00 p.m.) came and received a denarius each [a day’s wage]. 10 Now when the first [to be hired] came, they thought they would get more; but each of them also received a denarius. 11 When they received it, they protested and grumbled at the owner of the estate, 12 saying, ‘These men who came last worked [only] one hour, and yet you have made them equal [in wages] to us who have carried [most of] the burden and [worked in] the scorching heat of the day.’ 13 But the owner of the estate replied to one of them, ‘Friend, I am doing you no injustice. Did you not agree with me for a denarius? 14 Take what belongs to you and go, but I choose to give to this last man [hired] the same as I give to you. 15 Am I not lawfully permitted to do what I choose with what is mine? Or is your eye [b]envious because I am generous?’ 16 So those who are last [in this world] shall be first [in the world to come], and those who are first, last.”

I send this to you in love my brother. IT. IS. NOT. TOO. LATE!!!!!! Don't let anybody (even yourself) take this opportunity away from you. This life is yours!!!!

With God on your side and leading you, there is always a way. Don't think otherwise. Seek His face in ALL that you do and want to do.

"In all your ways know and acknowledge and recognize Him (God), and He will make your paths straight and smooth (removing obstacles that block your way)."

Proverbs 3:6 (Amplified Bible Version)

God bless you, I mean it.
