Healing Wounded Souls By Jeanne Theriault
Jeremiah 30:17 But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds declares the Lord.
God’s unconditional love heals and restores us to wholeness. God’s healing love helps us see ourselves through His eyes. We can allow God’s love and grace to heal all wounds. 3 John 2 Dear friend I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.
Pain of past hurts creates a form of bondage, what we need to do is to be set free and allow God to heal. Often times hurts reside in our memory and it effects the choices we make. We can’t allow ourselves to stay in the prison of our past. If you are dealing with past hurts it will make you feel resentful, angry. Are you sensitive about events in your past? Feeling of hopelessness? Hard to forgive and love? Then you have unresolved inner wounds. Jeremiah 30:17 But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds declares the Lord.When you allow God to heal then you will see the ability to love unconditionally. 1 John 4:16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love, whoever lives in love, lives in God and God in him. Love always believes in the best of people. We are made in God’s image. 1 John 2:5 But if anyone obeys his word, God’s love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in Him. His word says to love your enemies ..Luke 6:27 But I tell you who hear me love your enemies, do good to those who hate you 28 Bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you do to others as you would have them do to you.
Sometimes we might even blame others for our troubles, don’t allow the enemy to play with your mind. If you know that God loves you , forgives and accepts you , then you are preparing yourself to receive God’s healing for your soul. Psalm 147:3 He heals the broken hearted and binds up their wounds.
Remember it is not what was done to us, but it is our reaction to what was done to us. Do not hold on to your hurts, allow the Lord to heal .Holding on to pain and hurts will only prevent you from being healed. We are loved by God, not because of what we’ve done, but because of who we are. God’s will for us is to receive our healing. We need to extend forgiveness for those who have hurt us. Unforgiveness can block you from receiving your healing. Hebrews 12:15 See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many. Allow the peace of God rule in your hearts
Isaiah 53:5 But he was pierced for our transgressions , he was crushed for our iniquities the punishment that brought us peace was upon him and by his wounds we are healed.
Heavenly Father we thank you for your love and healing power, as we walk in forgiveness we are allowing your healing hand to heal all wounds from all hurts to be able to reach out to others with love just as you loved us.
