Day 3: Remove What Weighs You Down

Five-day devotional based on the message by Discipleship Pastor Ryan Akers on March 23, 2025. Click here to watch the video.

Devotional
Every day, we carry burdens that weigh us down, robbing us of peace. Whether it's fear, guilt, or stress, these burdens can hinder our walk with God. The Bible encourages us to strip off these weights, especially sin, so we can run the race set before us with endurance. By surrendering our burdens to God and seeking His guidance, we find freedom and peace that allows us to live joyfully and purposefully.


Bible Verse
"Let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up." – Hebrews 12:1


Reflection Question
What burdens are you carrying today that you need to surrender to God?


Sermon Quote
"Take five minutes every single day and simply ask the Lord, 'God, what am I holding onto that You want me to release?'"


Prayer
Gracious God, I ask for Your help in letting go of the burdens I carry. Reveal to me what holds me back from experiencing Your peace. I surrender my fears and worries to You. Thank You for lifting my burdens and giving me rest. Amen.
