Matthew 11:28–30 NIV — Rest for the Weary and Finding Peace in Christ’s Invitation | Prayers of Jesus Series | Reverend Ben Cooper | RB Christian Radio London | Daily Devotional Podcast

Scripture (NIV):

“Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 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 11:28–30 (NIV)

 Recorded live here in London, England — a message for the weary, as Reverend Ben Cooper invites listeners to exchange burdens for rest in Christ Jesus.

Show Notes

Exhaustion has become a global language, but so has Christ’s invitation. In Matthew 11, Jesus does not offer escape — He offers rest. Reverend Ben Cooper draws listeners to the Saviour who invites the tired, the broken, and the busy to learn His gentle way.

This rest is not sleep; it’s soul alignment. In the school of Christ, we trade self-reliance for trust and gain a peace that no holiday can supply. From London to Los Angeles, millions carry burdens they were never meant to bear. This episode calls every heart to lay them at His feet and receive the rest that restores.

Thank you for joining us today on our daily Christian prayer podcast with myself, Reverend Ben Cooper, recorded live here in London, England. Wherever you are, we just want to say thank you so much for sharing everything that we push out. Thank you for your reviews. Thank you for those that pray for us. Thank you to those also that click the hyperlink on buy us a coffee. This is the listener-supportive ministry of RB Christian Radio. Wherever you are, these prayers are for each and every one of us with the busyness, the chaos of life for these quick five, five-minute commuter prayers. Whether you're on the coffee run, whether you're on a school run, whether you're cutting the grass on the treadmill of life, whatever you are doing. Come on, let's pray together. You know, we're going to dive straight into the book of Isaiah 41, verse 10. And the Bible says, fear not. I want to tell you, sister and brother, fear not. This is what the good word says. Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Father, in the name of Jesus, we thank you as we record this live here in London, England. Father, for these powerful prayers as we come together. Lord, as we remind each one of ourselves right now that the Spirit of the Lord is over us. And today, Lord, wherever we are in a world that is crowded out with uncertainty, Lord, we thank you that Isaiah 41, verse 10 breaks through. Lord, it breaks through with divine certainty. Today is the day, and Father, we come to you. And Lord, we're not going to allow fear into our lives. We're not going to allow our mind to hold us. Father, we're going to walk in faith today. Lord, I thank you, Lord, that we are established in the Word of God, that we know the Word of God. That Father, we thank you that the Bible, the truth, silence terror. Lord, that the word of God silence fear. Lord, we thank you, Lord, that your word crushes all the abuse across the world and we are free. Who the sun sets free is free indeed. And Father, we will not fear in the name of Jesus. We are the children of the living God. And we walk in the word of God. And Father, wherever we are situated across the globe, Lord, we thank you that we will fear not, because you are with us. Lord, we thank you for the prayers of Jesus. We thank you for the courage, Lord, that we have in his presence. And today, Lord, I ask you that the sisters and the brothers, and Lord, anyone that is capturing my voice today, Lord, that you tell us that you are with us. Lord, that we will not fear nothing, that the power of God is over our lives. Come, Holy Spirit. We need a stirring. We need a revival today in our hearts, Lord. We want, dear God, to fill your presence. And dear Spirit of the living God, we thank you that there is power in the name of Jesus. Lord, carry us. Lord, walk with us. Father, wherever we walk, Father, you are with us. Lord, from the battlefield to the boardroom. Lord, wherever we go, Lord, your hand is on us. Father, we thank you that we are not isolated, for we have intimacy with God. And through the power of prayer, as we step, Lord, into that spiritual place, as we step, Father, into the promises of God. Father, as we access the Word of God, as Father, we just want to say, Father, holy God, that you are, Lord, I can't stop saying, Father, our Father who in heaven, hallowed be thy name. You are our Father. And we pray that boldness, boldness today, we pray for courage today. We pray for strength when we're feeling weak. We pray, Lord, that we will stand on the word of God, that we will hear the voice above anxiety. Lord, as we face, Lord, individuals and families through uncertain days, as we watch the news, as we capture social media, Father, I just ask you that we will not be afraid, that we will walk in your presence, your love, your goodness, and Lord, that we will act in faith and not in fear. That we have divine confidence in Christ Jesus, that we will walk in peace, Lord, amid the problems and the situations. That Father, we come to you right now. Lord, we want to make this and we need to make this a life application. We got to tell the world around us, Father, as we pray through the book of Isaiah 41, verse 10, Lord, let's tell the world, sister. Let's tell the world, brother, let's shout it aloud each morning. Fear cannot stand where faith is spoken. Tell yourself right now, fear cannot stand where faith is spoken. I declare that our God upholds us with his righteous right hand, and the spirit of the eternal God is over each and every one of us. And as we walk through the valley of the shadow of death, we will fear no evil, for you are with us, your rod, your staff. Lord, you give us comfort. Lord, from the battlefield to the boardroom. Lord, in every area of life, the fire of God is over us. The presence of the Holy Spirit is living in our lives, that we carry the anointing. And Lord, we want to say thank you for the scripture today. Isaiah 40, verse, Isaiah 41, verse 10, and what it says then do not fear, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. Father, I thank you that you help us, that you are our God, that you are our King, that you are our Redeemer. Lord, we're not going to be dismayed. We're not going to allow fear in the gateway. For oh Jesus, we're going to walk in the Word today. So wherever we are, I pray that we will walk in the Holy Spirit. We will walk in Scripture. Lord, when we're on our way to school, whether we're at life, whatever we're doing, sit on the edge of the bed. Lord, wherever we are in the name of Jesus. Father, we thank you that the power of God is over every listener today. Lord, help us to hear the heartbeat of our God. Help us, Lord. We want to hear the whisper of the word. So come, Lord, refresh our lives. Father, I thank you for everyone that is under the sound of my voice today. May the Spirit of the Lord bless you wherever you are. My name's Reverend Ben Cooper. It's a privilege to walk with you to pray together. May the Lord bless you and keep you until tomorrow.
