Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! Despite what you may be going through in your life, God wants to heal you from your emotional bondage that continues to hinder your spiritual growth to maturity. God wants to give you peace, love, and comfort throughout your journey. God wants to free you from those things that will harm you. It’s important for all of us to read, pray and meditate in God’s Word in order to begin healing from the inside out.

GOD IS MY HEALER

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. (Isaiah 53:5)

There is no doubt in my mind that God is my healer. I ask God to bless me with vibrant health and overflowing joy every day. When you enter God’s presence with praise, God enters your circumstances with power. Yes, we should be confident and know that God is forever powerful within this Earthly realm.

THE CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST

And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. (Matthew 10:38)

As you may or may not know, the cross is God’s remedy for our emotional pain and distress. Without Jesus’ death on the cross for our sins, no one would have eternal life. Jesus said, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6). This verse explains the birth, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The cross of Jesus Christ provides the way to heaven for sinful mankind, like you and I, who could never get there on our own.

GOD’S WORD

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. (Romans 10:17)

Next, the healing power of God’s Word is shown throughout the Bible. God truly has unfailing love for His people. God has always challenged us through His Word to experience Him in a tangible, but loving way so that He could bless us with health through our obedience. The Word of God says, “For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life” (Proverbs 6:23).

• My favorite passage of Scripture is…
• One lesson I learned from Scripture this week is…

REJOICING AND PRAISE

I will praise the Lord according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the Lord most high. (Psalm 7:17)

God is the only unchanging constant in our lives. When all is gone – health, family, friends, money, position, etc. God remains. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever (Hebrews 13:8). Isn’t that something to rejoice about? Not only is God present with us, but God’s Word also tells us that nothing can separate us from that great unconditional love.

• Today or this week I was most blessed by…
• The area where I need to put more trust in God is…

THE HOLY SPIRIT

Behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you. (Proverbs 1:23)

Believe it or not, it is a fact that God knew that we could not change our sinful ways or heal ourselves in our own strength. God gave us His Holy Spirit to live within us and to take up residence in our hearts. The Holy Spirit gives us new birth, makes us a new creation in God’s sight and places us into the body of Christ. The Holy Spirit helps us to better understand and apply Scripture to our daily lives. (I Corinthians 2:12-13)

• I feel God’s presence most when…
• I feel most distant from God when…

GOD’S BODY, THE CHURCH

And I say also unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. (Matthew 16:18)

God’s Word tells us that God loves and accepts us, yet we strive to get love and acceptance from people we can see, hear and touch. If one part of the Christian body suffers, every other part suffers with it. So, if you are in a difficult situation, do not be alone. Reach out to Christian family members, friends, support groups, or spiritual counselors.

• I am eager for God to…
• My calling in life is…

A NEW SELF-IMAGE IN JESUS CHRIST

For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. (Galatians 6:3)

Not only must we believe in God’s evaluation of us, but we need to reject what our own faulty experiences and emotions tell us. Remember, self-image doesn’t change because we focus on pleasing ourselves, but it changes because we believe God and accept His love for us.

WHAT ARE HEALING AFFIRMATIONS?

The soul always knows what to do heal itself. The challenge is to silence the mind. – Unknown Author

Healing affirmations are words, phrases, or statements that are filled with faith, sincerity, and conviction. If you release and allow them to, healing affirmations can guide you through the process of self-care and self-improvement. Treat yourself with respect, compassion and increased happiness that lies within you.

Here’s a few healing affirmations that will give you strength and resilience. Recite them daily or as often as you need to.

• I give myself enough time to heal from within because I know, I deserve it.
• I am gentle with myself and never push hard to achieve things that are not worthy.
• I accept my sadness and inner pain; because it’s okay to feel like that.
• Every hurtful situation is an opportunity to heal emotionally and evolve spiritually.
• My inner wounds do not define my existence. I am worthy of attracting peace within.
• I made mistakes because I am not perfect, and that’s okay.
• I choose to forgive, and I choose to be free.

Always remember, nothing in this world is too big for our God. Don’t underestimate God in times of trouble or distress. Humble yourself and begin healing from the inside out. Allow God to guide your every thought and step along this journey called life. Why you ask? Because God is our healer today, tomorrow and forever!
