Healing

“He sent out his word and healed them, and delivered them from their destruction.” (Ps. 107:20 ESV)

We are all broken. We are desperate for physical, mental, emotional, relational, and spiritual wellness. We seek healing from self-help books, doctors, medicines, therapy, and surgery. We may get temporary relief and band-aid treatments. Yet, deep down, we remain wounded, continually degenerating.

Some of us call out to God in our desperation. God’s power and truth are expressed through His Word. He speaks into our lives. This targeted therapy, directed straight into our souls, results in healing. We are rescued from oppression, pulled back from the edge of the cliff.

Some people can’t or won’t call out to God when they are in trouble. We, who have faith, can call for help in their stead.  God will express His power in ways that are specifically designed for each situation and person. No one is beyond redemption. God shall send out His word and heal our brokenness. He will pull us back from the brink of destruction.

Lord, may we hear the words of truth that You speak into our lives. Heal us. Rescue us. Restore us.
