Tag: What the Bible says about letting God heal your heart

Matthew 13:15 (NKJV) 15 For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, And their eyes they have closed, Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them.’

When our hearts grow dull, it’s hard to hear, see or understand what we should or shouldn’t be doing.

In this state, our heart desperately needs healing.

It’s important that we find someone who can speak the words we need to hear without sugar-coating them, reaching us right where we are.

When our heart grows dull, it becomes hard. This may cause us to resist truth and become less responsive to spiritual guidance.

If we are in this state, we need God’s intervention more than we know.

You see, a dull, hardened heart rarely happens overnight.

It happened over a period of time, navigating painful situations that we’ve been faced with, and never getting the proper care or healing afterwards.

When the heart doesn’t get the proper care, it develops callouses and scar tissue. And this makes it very hard for anything or anyone to get through.

That heart is hard as a stone. But take heed to what God says!

Ezekiel 36:26 (NKJV) 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.

If our heart is in this state today, God can and will meet us where we are.

As we surrender to Him, He will guide us through a healing process.

His goal is to transform our heart so we can hear Him, and understand that if we surrender to Him, He is able to work with and through us!

Amen.

Matthew 11:28 (NKJV) 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

When hard situations hit us, it can bring change in our attitude toward life, people, and even within ourselves.

Sometimes we feel we are not the same person as we used to be. It can be scary when we feel we can’t get back to who we once were; happy, joyful, and full of life.

Pain that comes from being abused, a deep loss, etc., can and will try to change us from who we were to a weak and broken person; a person of bitterness and anger. A person who can never find that happiness we once had.

But praise God, we don’t have to accept it and crumble! He has given us the strength and wisdom to overcome.

If we are willing to let Him help us, we won’t stay in a place where pain and hurt wants to keep us. We will rise above it!

Not only will we rise up, but we can take what we went through and help others rise as well. We can be an encourager to those facing similar things.

These life experiences are real, and they hurt. But remember that God is bigger than whatever tries to take us out. And His healing power will keep us from any scars that may try to remain.

If you are done walking in the repercussions of a life of traumatic events, God is calling you to Himself; “enough is enough, let Me be your help. Rest in My arms.”

Mark 10:16 (NKJV) 16 And He took them up in His arms, laid His hands on them, and blessed them.
