Overcoming Evil Yokes Through Christ

In Matthew 11:28, the Bible says come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. There is no peace outside of Christ. When God takes away your burdens, you will be free from affliction. When you are under the yoke of the wicked, things become difficult or many. The devil likes to put their victims under their captivity so that they will not be able to achieve their purpose.

Our God is a yoke breaker; no yoke is difficult for him to break. In Jeremiah 30:8, for it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck and will burst thy bonds and strangers shall no more serve themselves. In Christ, you are guaranteed of safety, protection, victory and deliverance.

In Galatians 3:13, Jesus Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law. Being made a curse for us, for it is written, ” Cursed is everyone that hangeth on a tree. There are certain effects of yokes; they have the capacity to hinder a person, progress, take a person’s life, and destroy one’s destiny.

What are yokes and burdens?

1. Sickness: sickness can deny a person’s good life
2. Failure: failure is a yoke that needs to be broken
3. Bareness
4. Debts
5. Poverty
6. Stagnation
7. Sin
8. Depression
9. Marital failures
10. Loss
11. Backwardness
12. Oppression

An evil yoke is like a stubborn spirit that requires the power of God to break it. You cannot break a yoke through your strength; no, it will only result in vain effort. A yoke is influenced by the devil to tie down the destiny of a person. A demonic yoke can disgrace a person and make a man nurse a problem for years.

Who experienced yokes in the bible?

1. In Mark 5, a man by the pool of Bethsaida was sick for 38 years; the yoke of long-time sickness disappeared as he had a great encounter with Jesus Christ
2. In Mark 5, a woman with the issue of blood was afflicted with sickness for 12 years. The good news is that she touched the hem of the garment of Jesus, and she was made whole completely
3. In Luke 13:11, there was a woman in the bible who had been crippled by a spirit for 18 years. She was very weak. When Jesus saw her, he called her and said woman, you are free from your infirmity.

You can see that yoke has the capacity to stay long in a person’s life, to waste his life until the burdens are encountered with the Holy Spirit.

Isaiah 10:27, and it shall come to pass in that day, that this 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. Jesus Christ is the anointing that breaks the yoke, destroys stubborn burdens, and sets the captives free; the anointing is the power of God that breaks the chains of oppression. The anointing is the power of God that casts out devils. The anointing is the power of God that secures your victory and deliverance.

Why do people pass through yoke and burdens?

1. Sin

3. Disobedience
4. Evil inheritance
5. Wrong marriage

7. Curses and evil covenant
8. Bad house

Yokes are a stronghold of the devil, designed to embarrass and delay the destiny of people. Those who are experiencing the yoke of darkness in their marriage need the anointing to break their yoke. Overcoming the power of the wicked requires the intervention of God. When you cry out to God for your deliverance, He will look at the things causing those issues in your life and remove them from you. In Psalm 91:5, he shall call upon me, and I will answer him, I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honour him.
