Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.” Matthew 11:28-30 -All you rich men And the high above All of those with And without love All you burdened And broken down Bring all of your troubles Come lay 'em down- At that time Jesus prayed this prayer: “O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, thank you for hiding these things from those who think themselves wise and clever, and for revealing them to the childlike. Yes, Father, it pleased you to do it this way! Matthew 11: 25-26 Could it really be so simple, just put your burden down? We want to make this complicated, we want to explain this scientifically. But its so easy, because He did the hard part. -Bring all your burdens (Come lay 'em down) Just lay 'em down- |

| Needtobreathe – Devil's Been Talkin' Lyrics | 2 years ago |

Using the law the devil accuses us of not being worthy, of being sinners who cannot ever be in Gods favor. We sin every day and we can not change that. We try to, we try to save ourselves, but the devil is quick to remind us that we can't. "there is another power within me that is at war with my mind. This power makes me a slave to the sin that is still within me. Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death?" Says Paul in Romans 7: 23-24 Ofcourse there's the good news, the gospel tells us: there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus! But sometimes we forget "the truth will set you free But it won't for me" and "The ship is setting off to sea But it's sailing without me" that's when the devil's been talking. You are not good enough, you can't change, you are a sinner, you are not worthy, you are alone - all this is true, but NOT for those who belong to Jesus. In my opinion the song is based on Romans 7 - An essential chapter for every christian. |
