CURSED BY BEING OVERLOADED
My Dear Precious Child,
Your enemy, the devil, knows your limits because he has overloaded you in the past with obligations and caused your body to react in sickness, yielding to allergies, unbridled anxiety, your losing patience with others, or other instances of your body, mind and spirit becoming out of harmony with each other. All areas of your life are currently affected and even affected long term if you do not become harmonious with your actions, learning what you need to learn about unnecessary obligations. One person's stamina limitations might not be your limits so allowing yourself to become overloaded with obligations will curse your life in some way, either physically, mentally or spiritually.
My Holy Spirit wants to reveal to you your obligatory limits in order for you to remain healthy in every area of your life, protecting yourself from one of the devil's most deceptive tricks, which is to overload My children with obligations until they break through their limits and have a need to recuperate by retreating from activities, exercise or other necessary duties. Your enemy loves to upset the harmony in your life with others but also with your own physical, mental and physical duties. Obligations and duties that you take on without hearing the wisdom of My Holy Spirit relating to them are often the straw that "breaks the camel's back" which refers to overburdening the back of a camel, who is a pack animal. Sometimes the result is very literal, your taking on obligations which cause extreme back pain from tension and stress. That is not My desire for My children. It's the devil's desire for My children.
Tempting you to take on duties that you should avoid is often the result of the devil using guilt to entice you to become overburdened by accepting duties which are really not yours to perform at that time. Either you are already overloaded or the obligation is outside of your gift to humanity. A person who has a gift of administration will often become overloaded if he or she accepts a duty that requires the gift of serving by cooking for a crowd. That person might not be a good cook or able to serve people with joy. That person might be gifted with organization or the ministry of financial records but he or she is not gifted in joyfully serving people. Requiring that person to work in the ministry of serving might push him or her over the edge by taking on unnecessary obligations outside of his or her gift and the result is physical sickness or too much mental stress, which results in overwork and disharmony with others or with his or her own personal gift. It does not glorify the truth of My body of Christ working in harmony with one another and working within each person's gift for humanity.(I Corinthians 12:1-31)
You must love yourself enough not to allow the devil to use other people to entice you to become overloaded with back breaking responsibilities that are not yours to do, in the first place. Those obligations will become Law to you and I said that the Law of sin and death will kill you. (Romans 8:2-14) The truth about My body of Christ working together in harmony with each other relates to gifts of ministry and also to gifts of administration in the church and the world. They work perfectly together unless duties and obligations are required of the people that are outside of their gift for humanity working together perfectly along with others,fulfilling the law of Christ.
Your family might be used by the devil to overload you with obligations and duties that you were able to do physically or mentally when you were younger but those duties become burdens when you get older because your mental and physical limits have gradually diminished with age. You must learn to listen to the voice of your own body which My Holy Spirit uses to speak My guidance to you. If there is no peace in your "gut" where He lives inside of you, then you must graciously decline any added duty or obligation because of the possibility of your being overloaded which causes your physical and mental health to suffer. You must take care of your body, My temple of the Holy Spirit, or you will suffer in every area of your life because of being overloaded with duties that are not yours to do. There is always somebody else who is called with the gift to fulfill that need. If you rush in and assume the responsibility, then you cheat that person of the joy of fulfilling the need with his or her appropriate gift.
As I told you many times, you are not a pack mule. You are My child with the guidance of My Holy Spirit who tells you what your gifts are and what your limits are. Ignoring that guidance will result in your allowing disharmony to rule your life. Harmony presents beautiful music to your family and friends. You can bear the burden of other people graciously if you are not already overloaded and involved in other duties. I do not call you to bear the burdens of other people at the cost of your own mental and physical health. Don't wear down My temple by piling on duties that are not meant for you to bear. My Spirit will let you know your limits.
Your Heavenly Father of Wisdom
