Yokes – part 8, 8/31/08 – The
Yoke that Finishes us Off.
From Isaiah 58 and Matthew 11 -
12
As a review, in the past 7 weeks
we have heard messages about YOKES that weigh us down:
1st. Yoke of Judging others
2nd. Yoke of Sitting as judge – for who
deserves mercy
3rd. Yoke of Unbelief, even in the fact of
miraculous signs
4th. Yoke of Words being your
betrayer
5th. Yoke of Fain trust in God
6th. Yoke of false regeneration
7th. Yoke rejecting intimacy
Now – we come to the 8th
Yoke – The Yoke that will be our undoing.
We go back to the beginning
for this final Yoke that we must substitute for all the ones we have put off: His
Yoke!
Matthew 11: 28 – 30.
V 28
First we
come to Him, which takes absolute trust.
V 29a
Next we
Release to Him, which takes Full surrender.
V 29
Finally, we
align with Him, which takes passion and discipline.
The
Lord reminded me as Pasture Scott was speaking of a particular text that this
final Yoke, His Yoke, is all about. Look in Romans 13: 14 which says: “But
put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in regard to
its lusts.”
In
Matthew 12:43 – 45 Jesus tells us what happens when there is no substitute for
the cleaning of a person from the enemy. When we put off the 7 Yokes that
Pasture Scott preached on, there is yet one more thing that is needed – that is
to put on the Lord Jesus Christ. When we put Him on, our house will no longer
be unoccupied but filled with the Lord Jesus and there will never be room for
the enemy to occupy.
