Therefore, we can approach God the Father for salvation, healing, provision, peace and any needs that we have. We come only by the name and covering of Jesus Christ.
We stand on the Word of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ that says, Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily 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.
