Joel Osteen Devotional September 26 2020 – Anointing Breaks the Yoke

Isaiah 10:27, KJV

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.

A yoke is put around the neck of oxen to help control the animal. It limits its movement. If the oxen starts to get off course, the yoke is used to pull it back. Even though an oxen is very powerful, this small yoke keeps it from doing what it wants to do. Perhaps you’re living with a yoke today, and you don’t realize it. You wonder why you can’t get ahead or why everything is a struggle. It’s because of a yoke that is dragging you down. Poverty, lack, and barely getting by are a yoke. Negative words that were spoken over you become a yoke when they cause you to shrink back. You have to declare what Isaiah stated, “The anointing on my life is breaking every yoke.” Every time you say, “I am anointed,” chains are broken. Fear has to leave. Depression has to go. Healing comes. Strength comes. Faith comes. God’s burden-moving, yoke-destroying power will set you free!

“Father, thank You for Your anointing that is at work in my life to destroy every yoke and set me free. Thank You that I am anointed with the strength, the peace, and the confidence I need. I believe that You are releasing a fresh anointing on my life today. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
