I am removing the dead off of you as a gardener would remove the dead blossoms for a plant. I am doing this so that you can branch out and expand with new life. I am removing the dead so that you have room to receive the new that I am giving to you in this season. Just as I have asked you to let go of the past to make room for the future, I am doing the same with removing the old and dead for the new and life. Look at it as having the dead weight and unwanted baggage taken off of you that no longer has any need for it to be there.

You need this newness of life. You need to see that the yoke I have asked you to carry is light. You need to allow My fire to blaze inside of you and my breath to flow through you and bring resurrected life back into your being, in your bones and give you the strength to press forward in all that I have for you to do.

I want you to have life full of abundance. I want you to be able to receive all of Me and have no weights of this world. I want you to enjoy all that I am doing with you, through you, and in you. I want you to know what it is to be alive in Me and walk in the life that I have to offer.

I do not want you to walk around discouraged, overwhelmed, frustrated, or bitter. I want you to be full of life, love, faith, ambition, hope, peace, and full of confidence knowing that I am right here with you every step of the way.

So today I want you to allow the dead to fall off completely. I want you to step in the door way of life that I have placed before you. I want you to walk in the door way of change that will bring you alive in Me and be able to see that the dead has no more reign or pull on you.

Let the dead fall to the ground. Be resurrected in My life. Let go of the yoke of this world and pick up My yoke. Let go of all the cares of this world and walk in the faith and belief knowing that I am taking care of it all and with Me all things are possible.

“We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.” (Romans 6:4)

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!” (2 Corinthians 5:17)

“Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:29-30)
