Get Healed of Your Hurts

Hurt people hurt other people. It’s that simple…doing unto others as you’ve had done unto you.

  • Malice seeks to hurt people.
  • Malice wants you to hurt yourself.
  • Malice wants us to hate and then justify why.
  • Malice is all about destruction and hurting others.

There is a book I read some years back, Hurt People Hurt People. It explains it very well.

If we allow ourselves to move past the hurt then:

  • Helped people can help people
  • Healed people can heal other people
  • Healthy people can cause healthy relationships

We all bring what we have to the table. What are we bringing to the table?

Maybe we can wipe the table clean. Forgive what needs to be forgiven and move forward to a better relationship with ourselves and others.

We can be healed. We can be free.

Help God! I Hurt!

For we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way, but the Lord has laid on Him the guilt and iniquity of us all. Isaiah 53:6

Yes, we’ve all wandered off into other pastures looking for the greener grass supposedly on the other side of the fence. We’ve headed off in our own direction to what appeared good at the time and ended up in a briar patch of prickers and thorns and bitter weeds and cockle burs. Now our feet hurt from walking on the burs; our hands hurt from trying to pick the prickers out and our stomachs hurt and we’re hungry from trying to eat bitter weeds.

Is God mad at us for doing this? Is He up in heaven trying to make us pay for our mistakes and foolish decisions?

NO!

Jesus Himself took away all our sin and iniquity and guilt. He was our scapegoat. He took away all our blame. We no longer have to look for a scapegoat or for someone to blame when things go wrong in our lives. Turn and look to Jesus. He already saw your need and took the blame for you. He is your scapegoat. He can bear it. You and I cannot. He is the humble Lamb of God, yet He is the all-powerful risen Savior who took back what we gave to the devil in in the Garden of Eden when man gave in to temptation.

Now we have been restored to fellowship with God Himself…our creator, the Creator of all the heavens and all the earth…The One who made Niagara Falls, The One who dug Grand Canyon, The One who directs the mighty Amazon River. We are restored to Him. We do not need to fear. God is with us if we are with Him. Turn to God and He will turn to you. Hide yourself in God from the trials in your life. He will cover you with His wings and under His wings shall you trust.

He will put His healing balm and salve on your wounds so you will be healed body, soul and spirit.

Say, “God help me today.”

He will say, “I’ve been waiting for you to ask Me.”
