Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing (History Behind the Hymns #9) by Daniel Whyte III

TEXT: Matthew 11:25-30

Second, we are to approach Jesus as our Ruler. Jesus calls on us to cast off the burden and yoke that makes us weary and take on His yoke and burden. In return for Jesus taking off our yoke and burden of sin, we take Him as our master and take on His light and easy yoke and burden. We are welcomed to be released from the pain of sin and enter into the service of the King of Kings. As servants of Christ, we are never to return to the heavy burden of sin that we have cast off. We are to conduct ourselves in a way that is pleasing to God, obeying His commands, and doing the work to further His Kingdom. We are to learn to be more like Jesus, through studying the Word of God and obeying His commands. Some say that the words “for I am meek and lowly in heart” to be the specific lesson that God wants us to learn from the example of Jesus. We must learn to be like Christ, to put on the new man after shedding the sinful old man.

Proverbs 24:1-2

Second, we should not be envious of the wicked because their hearts study destruction. The ways of the wicked leads to destruction. They aim to destroy others and their path will eventually lead to their destruction from God. Tim Challies said, “Perhaps if we were to summarize, we could say that we can envy the depravity of unbelievers. We are saved people who have undergone a great transformation. But we remain sinful people who have undergone an incomplete transformation. The old man is still within, still longing to have what he wants, what he loves, what he believes he deserves. To our shame, we can envy the depravity of unbelievers, the very acts and deeds that will assure their everlasting torment.” It is repeatedly stated throughout Scripture that those who study destruction will be destroyed. Ezekiel 18:4 says, “the soul that sinneth, it shall die.” Galatians 6:7 says, “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” Unless we want to end up wicked and in hell like the, we should not follow them along their path to destruction.
