Come
to Me, All you who Labor
And
are Heavy-laden and Overburdened,
And
I will Cause you to Rest--
I
will Ease and Relieve and Refresh your Souls.
Take
My Yoke upon you, and Learn of Me;
For
I AM Gentle (meek) and Humble (lowly) in Heart,
And
you will find Rest—Relief, Ease and Refreshment
And
Recreation and Blessed Quiet—For your Souls.
For
My Yoke is Wholesome (useful, good)--
Not
harsh, Hard, Sharp or Pressing,
But
Comfortable, Gracious and Pleasant;
My
Burden is Light and Easy to be Borne.
(Matthew
11:28-30, AMP)
Where
is Christ Jesus Inviting us to Come?
It
is to His Secret Place. Listen:
He
who lives in the Secret Place of the Most High
Shall
remain Stable and Fixed under the Shadow of the Almighty
[Whose
Power no Foe can withstand].
I
will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress,
My
God, on Him I Lean and Rely,
And
In Him I (confidently) Trust!
(Psalm
91:1,2, AMP)
No
, but [the Lord will teach the Rebels in a more Humiliating Way]
By
men with Stammering Lips and another Tongue
Will
He speak to this People
[Says
Isaiah, and teach them His Lessons].
To
these [complaining Jews the Lord] had said,
THIS
IS THE TRUE REST
[The
Way to True Comfort and Happiness]
That
you shall give to the Weary,
AND
THIS IT THE TRUE REFRESHING.
Yet
they would Not Listen [to His Teaching].
(Isaiah
28:11,12,AMP)
For
I will [fully] Satisfy the Weary Soul,
And
I will Replenish every Languishing and Sorrowful person.
(Jeremiah
31:25, AMP)
Keep
and Guard me as the Pupil of the Eye;
Hide
me in the Shadow of your Wings.
(Psalm
17:8, AMP)
For
in The Day of Trouble He will Hide me in His Shelter;
IN
THE SECRET PLACE OF HIS TENT WILL HE HIDE ME;
He
will Set me High upon a rock.
(Psalm
27:5, AMP)
IN
THE SECRET OF YOUR PRESENCE
You
Hide them from the Plots of men;
You
Keep them Secretly in Your Pavilion
From
the Strife of Tongues.
(Psalm
31:20, AMP)
YOU
ARE A HIDING PLACE FOR ME;
You,
Lord, Preserve me from Trouble;
You
surround me with Songs and Shouts of Deliverance.
Selah
[pause, and think calmly of that]!
(Psalm
32:7,AMP)
I
will lift up my eyes to the Hills
[around
Jerusalem, to Sacred Mount Zion and Mount Moriah].
From
whence shall my Help Come? [Jer. 3:23.]
My
Help comes from the Lord,
Who
made Heaven and Earth.
He
will Not Allow your foot to Slip or to be Moved;
He
Who Keeps you will Not Slumber.
[1
Sam. 2:9; Prov. 3:23,26; Ps. 127:1; Isa. 27:3.]
Behold,
He Who Keeps Israel will neither Slumber nor Sleep.
The
Lord is your Keeper;
The
Lord is your Shade on your right hand
[The
side not carrying a shield]. [Isa. 25:4.]
The
sun shall not smite you by day,
Nor
the moon by night. [Ps. 91:5; Isa. 49:10; Rev. 7:16.]
THE
LORD WILL KEEP YOU FROM ALL EVIL;
He
will Keep your life.
The
Lord will Keep your going out and your coming in
From
this time forth and For Evermore. [Deut. 28:6; Prov. 2:8; 3:6.]
(Psalm
21, AMP)
YOU
WILL SHOW ME THE PATH OF LIFE;
In
Your Presence is Fullness of Joy,
At
Your Right Hand there are Pleasures For Evermore.
[Acts
2:25-28, 31.]
