Welcome to this our new Month of Praise For Heaviness in Jesus name.
Isaiah 61: 3 - To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness… Heaviness means unwelcome, burdensome difficulty, laborious weight, persisting sadness etc.
The spirit of heaviness is not of the Holy Spirit, for it brings difficult yokes, heavy burdens. When one is under heaviness, there is depression, despair, dejection, inner hurts, feeling of hopelessness, broken-heartedness.
Jesus, understanding this, said in Matthew 11:28-30 – “Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you...For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light ” However, praise is a garment of the Holy Spirit. We need to literally cloth ourselves in praise.
The Hebrew word, labash, used for garment means to wrap or cover ourselves, in praise. The garment of praise is to leave no openings or holes which hostile spirits of heaviness can penetrate.
It’s a matter of our will!! Let’s put on the garments of Praise. In this Month of Praise for Heaviness, the Holy Spirit will destroy every difficult yoke & lift from off our shoulders every heavy burden & weights.
Shackles & chains are permanently broken, in Jesus Name. AMEN
