Most of us treat our cars better than our hearts. We take our vehicles for regular services but how often do we take time out to repair the wear and tear of our souls? I believe we all need healing. Here are five reasons why:
1. Your heart determines your destiny
Proverbs 4:23 says: “…Your heart… determines the course of your life.” It’s not what I know or even who I know, and it’s not my qualifications that decide my destiny. It’s the condition of my heart. Common problems like self-consciousness, insecurity, discouragement or disappointment can limit our ability to live the life God intended.
2. Life is tough
We all go through difficulties and disappointments and get hurt along the way. People can let us down making it tough to trust. Our dreams may get dashed leaving us heavy-hearted. Things can happen that weigh us down. But because we love the Lord, we just dust ourselves down and carry on, perhaps with a little sadness beneath the surface.
3. You have a purpose
God is great and you were made in His image. So He has an extraordinary plan for your life. But Proverbs says that, “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.” If my confidence has been undermined by the people around me or if my view of myself has been damaged by circumstances, it will be hard for me to fulfil my potential.
4. The enemy has a plan
God has a great plan for our lives but the devil has a plan too. According to John 10:10, satan seeks to steal, kill and destroy. He knows he can’t just waltz in and end all our lives. So he tries to spoil them. He seeks to destroy our destiny. We need to stop him by dealing with every inner issue that holds us back.
5. We don’t know our own hearts
Jeremiah 17:9 says that one of God’s greatest concerns about our hearts is our propensity for self-deception: “The heart is deceitful above all things…” Just as the heart is capable of love, the heart is also a master of deceit. We think we know ourselves. We think we know what is going on inside. However, all too often, we don’t. We detach from pain & are unaware that old wounds are hindering our lives.
A service for your soul
Healed for Life is a life-changing encounter in God’s presence. It is a service for your soul. The Holy Sprit will shine His light into the depths of your heart, revealing hidden obstacles and healing hurts that you didn’t even know were holding you back.
