OFFLOAD THE BURDEN
from Good News Daily · host Uebert and Beverly Angel
Acts 4:20 (KJV) For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard. Someone may ask, what is a burden, and how can I offload it? These are legitimate questions. Let me start by saying Prophet Jeremiah in his day felt a kind of unusual burden, which was declaring the Word of God. Prophet Jeremiah lamented that he couldn't speak in the name of the Lord anymore. Still, at the end, he said, "...I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name. But His word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay" (Jeremiah 20:9 KJV)! Wow! A burden is a huge weight; it is a problem that you feel the responsibility to provide a solution for. It becomes a burden when an urgent need must be met in the church or on the mission field. A burden pulls you out of your comfort zone and gives you sleepless nights whilst it is unresolved. When you find yourself feeling uncomfortable after seeing a need in ministry, it becomes a personal weight to you, and it is your burden that you are called to handle. Once you have acted promptly, there will be a degree of calmness and peace. PROPHETIC DECLARATION I am ready to act on my calling. I do not entertain complacency in the house of the Lord. I know I am moving from glory to glory. I know there is more in Christ, so I am prepared to go higher and deeper in the name of Jesus!
