Luke 4:18 (NKJV) 18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed;
Today we’d like to speak to those who are hurting; those with a broken heart.
Maybe your heart is broken because of something that has happened in your life. Maybe it’s because you have lost someone, or are about to lose someone who is very close to you.
It’s important for us to understand that hurt comes with life. It’s part of the life that each of us lives, and probably one of the most difficult parts of it.
It can be heartbreaking to lose someone, both for the person who suffers the loss, and for the people around that person.
Losing someone can knock the wind out of us. It can make us feel like there is nothing stable under our feet, making it difficult to find solid footing.
There are no “magic words” that anyone can say that can take away the hurt and suddenly make everything better.
But in the midst of your pain, and in the midst of you trying to find a place to get your feet on solid ground again, even when you feel like you can’t go on, you can.
Because God is a healer of broken hearts. Nobody can heal a broken heart like He can.
Psalm 147:3 (NKJV) 3 He heals the brokenhearted And binds up their wounds.
Most of us wrestle with questions after a loss. We ask why, how, why now, what could I have done differently, etc. These are questions that we may not get the answers to.
And some questions in life can never be answered. But that should never stop us from letting God heal our heart. And it should never stop us from letting God get us back on track and moving forward again with our lives.
You see, the world keeps turning. It’s just a fact of life.
The sun rises and the sun sets. New days come. Each morning that we wake up is a new day.
So, we need to be careful that we don’t stop our life while the rest of the world keeps moving. We need to be careful not to get left behind.
We need to do whatever it takes to get moving forward again, even though it can be an extremely hard thing.
Our hearts hurt for you in your loss and your difficulties with getting past the pain and moving forward again.
We recorded a video on this topic very recently, and we’d really like you to watch it, so we can speak to you further and help you get the healing that you need.
We want to see you move forward with your life again. We want to see you healed and made whole by God’s hand and His power to fix broken hearts.
So, we hope you’ll take a few minutes to watch the video and let God speak to your heart.
We love you, and we hope this devotional and the video help bring healing to your broken heart.
