We are blessed by this reminder and we join together in agreement that God is indeed our healer and comforter. We hold fast to the truth of Psalm 147:3 that He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds. We also cling to Psalm 34:18 which tells us Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. Whatever pain is being carried today, we know God does not ask us to carry it alone. He invites us to cast all our worries on Him, because He cares for us as we read in 1 Peter 5:7.
We want to gently share that while this message speaks of God and His comfort, we only have access to the Father and His healing through Jesus Christ. Jesus said in John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. And in Acts 4:12 we are reminded there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved. It is through faith in Jesus, His death and resurrection, that our broken hearts are not only comforted for a time but eternally restored and forgiven. If we have not already placed our trust in Him, we encourage turning to Him today.
We pray together for all who are hurting and waiting for healing.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son. We thank You that You see every wound, every sorrow, and every tear. We ask that You heal the brokenhearted among us and bind up their wounds according to Your mercy. Give patience in the process of healing and teach us to lean not on our own understanding but on Your comfort, Your Word, and Your presence. Help us to daily cast our cares upon You and to rest in Your nearness. Draw us closer to Jesus, that we may know the fullness of Your love and the peace that passes understanding. We ask that You renew our hearts, strengthen our faith, and lead us into wholeness in You. In Jesus name we pray, amen.
We encourage you to continue to give yourself time in prayer, in Scripture, and in fellowship with other believers, trusting that God is faithfully working even when healing feels slow. He is with you and He will not forsake you.
