The anointing that destroys the yoke

The anointing that destroys the yoke Isa 10:27 And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.

The word yoke refers to either a burden that an enemy laid on the shoulders of its oppressed or a teaching of something or by someone that becomes a yoke or a burden on the neck of others, as for instance was the case in the days of Jesus Christ and the early Church.

Mat 11:28-30 (28) Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. (29) Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. (30) For My yoke is easy and My burden is light. Acts 15:10 Now therefore, why do you test God by putting a yoke on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? Gal 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.

The yoke mentioned here refers to the Law of Moses and to how the scribes and Pharisees enforced their interpretation thereof upon the people of Israel. In either cases it was not possible to carry those yokes. From this comes the invitation from Jesus Christ in Mat 11:28-30 (28) Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. (29) Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. (30) For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.

(28) Come to Me, all you who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. It is important to understand that this Me that Jesus Christ referred to was the only appointed and anointed son of GOD in his day the carrier of GOD s anointing. Therefore he could make this statement, for only the Son can set you free John 8:36 Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed. Only the appointed and anointed Son of GOD can give or bring you into rest. (restoration of day 7) Labour and heavy laden refers to the struggles and impossibilities of the previous season, where the yoke of that season was enforced upon the neck of the people living in that season. It refers to a season where no works could bring you into rest. Read Rom 9:25 Rom 10:4

Rom 9:25-32 (25) As He says also in Hosea: "I will call them My people, who were not My people, And her beloved, who was not beloved." (1Pet 2:10 who were once not a people but now are ) (26) "And it shall come to pass in the place where it was said to them, 'You are not My people,' There they shall be called sons of the living God." (27) Isaiah also cries out concerning Israel: "Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, The remnant will be saved. (not all of Israel) (28) For He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, Because the Lord will make a short work upon the earth." (1 day compared to 6 days) (29) And as Isaiah said before: "Unless the Lord of Sabaoth (Lord of the armies) had left us a seed, We would have become like Sodom, And we would have been made like Gomorrah."

(30) What shall we say then? That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness of faith; (31) but Israel, (previous plan) pursuing the law of righteousness, has not attained to the law of righteousness. (Rom 8:1-2) (32) Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling stone. (new plan/season) (33) As it is written: "Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and rock of offense, And whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame."

1Pet 2:4-10 (4) Coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious, (5) you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. (6) Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture, "Behold, I lay in Zion A chief cornerstone, elect, precious, And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame." (7) Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient, "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone," (8) and "A stone of stumbling And a rock of offense. "They stumble, being disobedient to the word, to which they also were appointed. (9) But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; (10) who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.

Rom 10:1-4 (1) Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel (those of the previous season religion) is that they may be saved. (2) For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. (3) For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, (HIS way as it is ought to be in the new season) and seeking to establish their own righteousness (their way as they were used to do things in the previous season), have not submitted to the righteousness of God. (4) For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness (the end of how things were done in the previous season without the knowledge of the new Christ) to everyone who believes.

(29) Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. (30) For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. The yoke Jesus Christ referred to here is the teaching of the revelations of what FATHER entrusted to him, as he was GOD s appointed and anointed Son in his day, for that season. The yoke of the present season will bring rest to your soul. Rest is only possible when we establish ourselves in the present day truth of the present season. As GOD moves from season to season HE will always reveal HIS truths to HIS appointed and anointed Son of that particular season. Submitting to that Son of GOD, and the truth or word that FATHER entrusted to him, will cause the anointing of GOD (flowing through him) to destroy the yoke of the previous season.

Isa 9:1-7 (1) Nevertheless the gloom will not be upon her who is distressed, As when at first He lightly esteemed The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, And afterward more heavily oppressed her, By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, In Galilee of the Gentiles. (2) The people who walked in darkness Have seen a great light; Those who dwelt in the land of the shadow of death, Upon them a light has shined. (3) You have multiplied the nation And increased its joy; They rejoice before You According to the joy of harvest, As men rejoice when they divide the spoil. (4) For You have broken the yoke of his burden And the staff of his shoulder, The rod of his oppressor, As in the day of Midian. (5) For every warrior's sandal from the noisy battle, And garments rolled in blood, Will be used for burning and fuel of fire. (6) For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. (7) Of the increase of His government and peace There will be no end, Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, To order it and establish it with judgment and justice From that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.

Isa 10:24-27 (24) Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt. (25) For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction. (26) And the LORD of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and as his rod was upon the sea, so shall he lift it up after the manner of Egypt. (27) And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing. Read Judges 7

Judg 7:1-5 (1) Then Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the people who were with him rose early and encamped beside the well of Harod, so that the camp of the Midianites was on the north side of them by the hill of Moreh in the valley. (2) And the Lord said to Gideon, "The people who are with you are too many for Me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel claim glory for itself against Me, saying, 'My own hand has saved me.' (3) Now therefore, proclaim in the hearing of the people, saying, 'Whoever is fearful and afraid, let him turn and depart at once from Mount Gilead.' " And twenty-two thousand of the people returned, and ten thousand remained. (4) But the Lord said to Gideon, "The people are still too many; bring them down to the water, and I will test them for you there. Then it will be, that of whom I say to you, 'This one shall go with you,' the same shall go with you; and of whomever I say to you, 'This one shall not go with you,' the same shall not go." (5) So he brought the people down to the water. And the Lord said to Gideon, "Everyone who laps from the water with his tongue, as a dog laps, you shall set apart by himself; likewise everyone who gets down on his knees to drink."

Judg 7:6-11 (6) And the number of those who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, was three hundred men; but all the rest of the people got down on their knees to drink water. (7) Then the Lord said to Gideon, "By the three hundred men who lapped I will save you, and deliver the Midianites into your hand. Let all the other people go, every man to his place." (8) So the people took provisions and their trumpets in their hands. And he sent away all the rest of Israel, every man to his tent, and retained those three hundred men. Now the camp of Midian was below him in the valley. (9) It happened on the same night that the Lord said to him, "Arise, go down against the camp, for I have delivered it into your hand. (10) But if you are afraid to go down, go down to the camp with Purah your servant, (11) and you shall hear what they say; and afterward your hands shall be strengthened to go down against the camp." Then he went down with Purah his servant to the outpost of the armed men who were in the camp.

Judg 7:12-16 (12) Now the Midianites and Amalekites, all the people of the East, were lying in the valley as numerous as locusts; (G13) and their camels were without number, as the sand by the seashore in multitude. (13) And when Gideon had come, there was a man telling a dream to his companion. He said, "I have had a dream: To my surprise, a loaf of barley bread tumbled into the camp of Midian; it came to a tent and struck it so that it fell and overturned, and the tent collapsed." (14) Then his companion answered and said, "This is nothing else but the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel! Into his hand God has delivered Midian and the whole camp." (15) And so it was, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream and its interpretation, that he worshiped. He returned to the camp of Israel, and said, "Arise, for the Lord has delivered the camp of Midian into your hand." (16) Then he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put a trumpet into every man's hand, with empty pitchers, and torches inside the pitchers.

Judg 7:17-22 (17) And he said to them, "Look at me and do likewise; watch, and when I come to the edge of the camp you shall do as I do: (18) When I blow the trumpet, I and all who are with me, then you also blow the trumpets on every side of the whole camp, and say, 'The sword of the Lord and of Gideon!' (:2) (19) So Gideon and the hundred men who were with him came to the outpost of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, just as they had posted the watch; and they blew the trumpets and broke the pitchers that were in their hands. (20) Then the three companies blew the trumpets and broke the pitchers--they held the torches in their left hands and the trumpets in their right hands for blowing--and they cried, "The sword of the Lord and of Gideon!" (21) And every man stood in his place all around the camp; and the whole army ran and cried out and fled. (22) When the three hundred blew the trumpets, the Lord set every man's sword against his companion throughout the whole camp; and the army fled to Beth Acacia, toward Zererah, as far as the border of Abel Meholah, by Tabbath.

Judg 7:23-25 (23) And the men of Israel gathered together from Naphtali, Asher, and all Manasseh, and pursued the Midianites. (24) Then Gideon sent messengers throughout all the mountains of Ephraim, saying, "Come down against the Midianites, and seize from them the watering places as far as Beth Barah and the Jordan." Then all the men of Ephraim gathered together and seized the watering places as far as Beth Barah and the Jordan. (25) And they captured two princes of the Midianites, Oreb and Zeeb. They killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they killed at the winepress of Zeeb. They pursued Midian and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon on the other side of the Jordan.

They killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they killed at the winepress of Zeeb. They pursued Midian and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon on the other side of the Jordan. 14 September 2013 covenant with leadership David/Judah 14 October 2014 1 st covenant with congregation 300 covenant members

2Cor 4:6 For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. (7) But we have this treasure in earthen vessels,(tents/flesh / Mat 16) that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us.

2 Cor 6:14-18 (14) Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? (15) And what accord has Christ with Belial? [G955 worthless or wicked (evil)] Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? (16) And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people." (17) Therefore "Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you." (18) "I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the Lord Almighty."

Jer 30:8-9 (8) 'For it shall come to pass in that day,' Says the Lord of hosts, 'That I will break his yoke from your neck, And will burst your bonds; Foreigners shall no more enslave them. (9) But they shall serve the Lord their God, And David their king, Whom I will raise up for them.

Jer 30:8-9 (8) 'For it shall come to pass in that day,' Says the Lord of hosts, 'That I will break his yoke from your neck, And will burst your bonds; Foreigners shall no more enslave them. (9) But they shall serve the Lord their God, And David their king, Whom I will raise up for them. Interesting David was born in 1040 BC and died in 970 BC. Jeremiah was only born in 655 BC, thus 315 years after David died. Therefore Jeremiah didn t prophesy of David to be king over Judah but he prophesied of a David, an appointed and anointed Son of GOD in his day a Jesus Christ a Xandré Christ.

1Tim 6:1 Let as many bondservants (G1401) as are under the yoke count their own masters (the appointed Son of the season) worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and His doctrine may not be blasphemed. G1401 δου λος doulos Thayer Definition: 1) a slave, bondman, man of servile condition 1a) a slave 1b) metaphorically, one who gives himself up to another s will, those whose service is used by Christ in extending and advancing his cause among men 1c) devoted to another to the disregard of one s own interests 2) a servant, attendant

If we do not honour and submit to the appointed Son of GOD of our day and the yoke he brings, the name of GOD and His doctrine will be blasphemed. - The end -
