False Burdens, Excess Baggage

I speak unto you this day and I say that I do not want you to be under the weight of False Burdens, nor do I want you to be carrying around Excess Baggage. This is because such things will prove to be cumbersome and too heavy for you to carry. Rather I want you to come to understand that you are not intended to be encumbered by the cares of this life on earth. Rather you are meant to not take on false burdens, nor to carry excess baggage so that you can be free to follow the commands of My Spirit.

When Jesus gave the command to those He called to follow Him, He in essence wanted them to follow Him in His steps because He was the “first born” of many brothers and sisters. It was not intended for them to be under the weight of the world, it was intended that they would follow Jesus in the ministry and do the works which signified the Power of My Kingdom. 

Far too many of those who are professing to be believers are on a dead-end road to nowhere because they have come under the bondage of the cares of this life on earth which can become very cruel. While they may start out with concern for pleasing Me and coming forth in the steps of Jesus, the cares of this life overwhelm them and they cannot follow on. The reason is because they take on a wife or a husband, they have children, they seek to provide the best for their mates and their children. However no one can serve two masters and those who put any person, place, or thing as their first obligation are going to find themselves far from My Will, and intention for their lives. 

They go on a treadmill and imagine they are getting somewhere when they are not because they are attempting to pursue a course that I never intended for them to go on. Therefore when you see such ones, know they are not giving Me the zeal of their youth, they are giving their energies to the world and being preoccupied with pleasing people rather than Me. Years will slip by and because they have not given themselves to Me as they should have, they will find that their children for the most part have no interest in Me, My Son, and My Spirit. 

Then it is probable these same children they tried to please will turn against them, this is because those who put their mates and their children above My Will, put the same covering over their children. Then after the children leave home the very mates they chose to please will grow discontented with the relationship built on the wrong foundation.

The most important thing for those who will prove to be True Disciples is that they will come forth putting My Son as the Right Foundation. If people will put My Will above their own, they will not end up empty in the end. Rather they will come forth ever knowing the power, the strength, and the mercy which I alone can and do provide for them. I do not want you to go in the way of the foolish when you are called to go in the Way of the Wise. Therefore do not be taking on false burdens and excess baggage and become overly entangled with those things I never purposed them for. This day why not be glad to put My Will as the Way you will not only talk but walk? Of course there are ways which seem right to men, but those ways are not My Way. The Way which I give to you is Blessed not cursed when you are choosing to follow every day in the steps of Jesus and to be thankful to be knowing of a surety there is no other way which is Blessed. Stop and consider, there are many who start out right, then end up wrong because they gave themselves over to people, places, and things above Me. Then they became cursed and misery was their cup because the very false burdens and excess baggage proved to be the wedge the devil used to separate My people from Faith in Me. Fear became their covering rather than Faith and they found it impossible to keep their vision clear and their journey going on the Eternal Road. This is because they basically took the wrong turns, made the wrong choices and ended up destitute of the tender mercies I alone do bring. 

The more that you look to Me, the more you cannot help but see there are endless treasures I have for you and as you progress in life, you will understand your obligation regarding your children is to put My Will first. While so many people have false dreams and schemes regarding their children, they are not looking to My Spirit for guidance, they are going by the world’s values. The only Way which leads to Eternity with Me is the straight and narrow way. Of course there are some people who will rebel against the Way I give them to walk in yet they rebel like Hell because they think their “straight and narrow way” parents have caused them to miss something. When, in reality they raised those children the Way My Spirit guided them to do. Some children born into Christian homes resent such upbringing, others love it because it gives them many values they would never have without such training. 

Those who take on False Burdens and Excess Baggage can have their precious children hate them because they did not give them a firm foundation to build on. Either Way, do not be controlled by demons working through children, take control of the children and cast out demons. While the world’s systems think they can raise up children all they do is bring forth System Kids who are useful for the State and Federal Economy.
