"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden,
and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me;
for I am meek and lowly in heart:
and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
– Matthew 11: 28-30

Holy God,

So often we try to carry our own burdens instead of casting them upon You. How blessed we are to have a God Who wants to bear our load, our worries, our concerns, our trials upon Himself. You do this out of Your great love for us, Lord. We deserve none of Your assistance. We cannot earn any of Your help. These are gifts that are freely given to us so that we can learn to trust in You and Your unfailing love.

Father, we thank You for so great a love that You have for us. We ask that You help our military men and women to know and receive this beautiful love as well. Many of them are in situations filled with trials and danger. We ask You to carry that burden for them, Lord. Carry the burden of protection for their loved ones back home who wait for their return. Carry the burdens of their day to day lives in which they may be living in very difficult circumstances. Help them to know the blessed assurance that You are their yoke bearer. You know all that they need and Your mercies are new every morning.

Lord, we pray that You would be the strength of President Trump’s life, helping him to acknowledge You in all his ways so that You may direct his path. May he choose to draw upon Your wisdom by reading the Word and communing with You each day. May His relationship with You be the source of his strength and the reason for his hope during these troubled times. We thank You for the success that You have given him and pray that You will bless America through his leadership.

Grant Your people Israel the revelation of Jesus Christ, that all may know the love of the Messiah and the redemption that was purchased for all those who believe. Father, we ask that people all over the world would pray for this beloved country.

Forgive the sins of our nation, Father, and help us to return to You in every area of our lives. Save us from everything that plagues us; for surely all sin dishonors You. Help us to honor the truth of Your Word and the teachings You have provided us.

Lord, Your yoke is easy, and Your burden is light. We can only enjoy those benefits if we submit our burdens unto You. Help us to do so, Lord, that we may rejoice in the rest that we find for our souls. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

PSALM 91:1-2
Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. This I declare about the Lord: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; He is my God, and I trust Him.

Psalm 92

A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath Day.

1 It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
to sing praises to your name, O Most High;
2 to declare your steadfast love in the morning,
and your faithfulness by night,
3 to the music of the lute and the harp,
to the melody of the lyre.
4 For you, O Lord, have made me glad by your work;
at the works of your hands I sing for joy.

5 How great are your works, O Lord!
Your thoughts are very deep!
6 The dullard cannot know,
the stupid cannot understand this:
7 though the wicked sprout like grass
and all evildoers flourish,
they are doomed to destruction for ever,
8 but you, O Lord, are on high for ever.
9 For your enemies, O Lord,
for your enemies shall perish;
all evildoers shall be scattered.

10 But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox;
you have poured over me* fresh oil.
11 My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies;
my ears have heard the doom of my evil assailants.

12 The righteous flourish like the palm tree,
and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 They are planted in the house of the Lord;
they flourish in the courts of our God.
14 In old age they still produce fruit;
they are always green and full of sap,
15 showing that the Lord is upright;
he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

Click to listen:

All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name

All hail the power of Jesus' name! Let angels prostrate fall
Bring forth the royal diadem, and crown Him Lord of all
Bring forth the royal diadem, and crown Him Lord of all

Ye chosen seed of Israel's race, ye ransomed from the fall
Hail Him who saves you by His grace, and crown Him Lord of all
Hail Him who saves you by His grace, and crown Him Lord of all

Let every kindred, every tribe on this terrestrial ball
To Him all majesty ascribe, and crown Him Lord of all
To Him all majesty ascribe, and crown Him Lord of all

O that with yonder sacred throng we at His feet may fall
We'll join the everlasting song, and crown Him Lord of all
We'll join the everlasting song, and crown Him Lord of all
