God Heals Broken Heart (4)

Read: Jeremiah 17:14; Psalm 103: 3, 6:2b; Isaiah 53:5b; Exocus 23:25, 15:26, 1 Peter 2:24b

... by His (Jesus) wounds we are healed. Isaiah 53: 5b

Heal me, O Lord, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise.
Jeremiah 17: 14


       I don't know how to get the broken heart or depression. But I knew the solution in Jesus alone. Today we speak God's healing with mercy and grace. May His name be glorified praising by my lips.

(7) Jesus heals

         Psalm 147: 3 said, "He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds." This verse explained that Jesus heals the brokenhearted and takes their wounds with love bondage. And Psalm 103: 3 said, ".... heals all your diseases." Jesus can heal all your diseases, even cancer or heavy depression. I have never believe that you got a cancer which is a will of God. Some Christians thought that the cancers are standing you have had sins. I don't believe either. I believe in James 1:17 said, "Every good and perfect gift (not diseases) is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly light who does not change like shifting shadows. (He is same yesterday, today and forever) I believe all diseases are from Satan, but God can use our sickness to be healed and glorify His Name, not my Name, if I laid my hand on sick people who got healing, it was still not me, but God's power. I am a channel healing by Jesus to others.

       In Exodus 23: 25 said, "I (God) will take away sickness...." and 15:26 continued saying, "For I am the Lord who heals you." Then Psalm 6:2 said, "O Lord, heal me, for my bones are in agony (Malaria pains). I have had Malaria for 12 times since I came to Tanzania on 26th of October in 2007. But I caught word of God and proclaimed over and over until I heard God voice who told me that He will heal me.

       I used to serve children were the blood cancer at hospital. I went and taught Children Sunday School in Rostov on Don city in Russia. I was angry first, why the children had to get the blood cancers. Then I have seen many testimonies about them. One time, I bought my laptop and printer there, we made the cards, all of them wanted to write on the card and said, "God heals me!" Even they did not lose hope, but they kept "Healing Hope" for the future. I have never seen one healing miracle there, but the children gave their testimonies were powerful. I have thanked God for them until today.

I am in second row left one with
the blood cancer's heroes


It will continue tomorrow!

God Heals Broken Heart (3)

Read: Isaiah 53:4; Psalm 31: 8, 118: 5, 27: 5

In my anguish, I cried to the Lord, and he answered by setting me free. Psalm 118 :5

In the multitude of my anxieties within me, Your comforts delight my Soul. Psalm 94: 19

(5) Sorrows are process, not ending.

     In Isaiah 53:4 said, "Surly he (Jesus) took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows." Jesus carried our sorrows, so that we may be free indeed and set free from our infirmities and all kind of depression. We can not do it, it is a time and you give your right to Him, let He took your sorrow away, maybe you are in pain for bad memory or horrible experience. But Jesus is there for you, and you asked Him, He will pull you out off  the water as Peter's experience. Then you can do too. Ask Jesus for help today!


(6) Set my feet in a spacious and high place.

     In Psalm 31: 8 said, "You have not handed me (David) over to the enemy, but you have set my feet in a spacious place. (The place is broad and freedom) Are you free from your enemy as sorrows, sadness, spiritual crushes, financial problems, broken hearts and condemnation... etc. You need to hand your burden to Jesus who give you a rest (Matthew 11:28). Because He wants to give you freedom and victory. You need to pray or ask the Lord, Jesus for this spacious place where has freedom and the Son of God set you free and you are free indeed. Amen!

     In Psalm 27: 5 said, "For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling. he will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle, and set me high upon a rock. (witness this victory)" God will hide you in the shelter of his tabernacle. In USA, there are many shelters where give people releasing from hungry, family abuses and homeless street people... etc. The shelters are to give people safety and security. But God gives us the shelter of his tabernacle where is holy, spiritual, love, peace, hope and full of joy. Ah my Jesus! As Elijah hid Horeb with depression and ask the Lord to take his life. (1 Kings 19: 4-5) God did not say Elijah, "You have fear as a mouse." Verse 6 said, "He (Elijah) looked around, and there by his head was a cake of bread baked over hot coals, and a jar of water. He are and drank and then lay down again. God gave Elijah a break and rest for hot food, water and a lot of sleeping. After that the angel of the Lord came back a second time and touched him and said, "Get up and eat, for the Journey is too much for you." So he got up and ate and drank. Strengthened by that food, he traveled forty days and forty nights until he reached Horeb, the mountain of God. There he went in to a cave and spent the night. (Verses 5-9)

    After that the Lord appears to Elijah: not in power wind, not in earthquake and not in fire. After the fire came a gentle whisper. (1 Kings 19: 11-13) Then God gave Elijah last assignment and show God himself who He is. ( verses 15-18)

Jesus lives yesterday, today and forever!


It will continue tomorrow!

God Heals Broken Heart (2)

Read: Psalm 30: 5b; Proverbs 17: 22; Psalm 34:4, 23:4


A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones. Proverbs 17:22

When I am afraid,
I will trust in you.
Psalm 56: 3


       In Taiwan people have had many depression population and many of them are broken-hearted with hopeless. They went to counselors for help. If they knew God or Holy Spirit well, their counsels are useless. One evangelist, a sister, helped me to counsel me. She was led by Holy Spirit, one main point, it made me to pour my heart out and cried out in the presence of my Jesus. She told me that you have never complained to Jesus. It was truth, I thought that Jesus is God, I had to be holy like Job. I was a human being and very weak in the sign of the Lord. She told me that this pillow was Jesus, I wanted you to say something to Jesus with your complaining. In the beginning, I was silence for a while, then I spoke to please Jesus, then I started to speak the words, I have never spoken them out. It was turning point for me. After that I got completely healing. God loves us, He like us to be honest to Him, we have so broken-hearted, useless and worthless. May the Holy Spirit will touch your counselors who can help you.

(3) Weeping will be passed, rejoicing will come.

      In Psalm 30: 5b said, ".... weeping sorrow may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning." I am a very emotional person as King David, I can change my feeling like four season a day. God likes my emotion, I don't need to confess and repent emotion, as long as I don't sin against with God, God allowed me to be who I am. He doesn't want me to be somebody else. Me is Me. I can't change the fact of my emotion. But I can control through Holy Spirit who is my great helper indeed. Jesus loves me as I love myself with His confidence.

     God still makes miracles today. When I was depression, I prayed that if God is so big in my life, He is going to heal my broken heart and depression. Nothing He can not do for me! There are Nothing, I just believe in Him day by day. I am changing by His power, not mine. Remember that I am very weak without His help. Jesus, He knew that I loves Him so much and I want my life to connect with Him every hour, every minute, every second and every moment, I wait for Him who is there for me. I am His special one and I am His favor one.

(4) Fear no evil, God is with you.

     When people got broken hearted, they felt, it was their fault, it was their problem and they hate themselves. In Psalm 34: 4 said, "I sought the Lord and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears." Fears are not love, perfect love drive all fears away." (1 John 4: 18)

       In Psalm 23: 4 said, "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death. (Through the darkest Vally). I will fear no evil for You are with me. Even David knew that God was with him and deliver him from all his fear and death could not held him. As long as David was good spiritual life, he overcame the darkest valley or the valley of the shadow of death. He walked through it, not stayed there, but he faced his fears with God's help, he could walked through all hardship, he has known God who always with him. And your rod and your staff, they comfort me. (verse 4b) He knew the Lord who prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies (Victory). You anoint my head with oil (anointing his kingship); my cup overflows (Blessings have overflown by God). Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. (verses 5-6)

      Take your failure and fear away, everything is happening, it is not your faults, why are you blaming yourself over and over again? " These events are not your faults and your are definitely not failure. Therefore, "we loves because he (Jesus) first loved us." (1 John 4: 19)


Fearless takes back love from the enemies.

God Heals Broken Heart (1)

Read: Psalm 31: 7, 9, 30: 11

You turned my wailing into dancing, your removed my sack clothes and clothed me with joy. Psalm 30:11

It may be that the Lord will look on my (David) affliction, and that the Lord will repay me with good for his cursing.
2 Samuel 16:12


       You have heard; "Why me, my God? Why I have been through all trouble in my life? Are you fair for me?" Those questions have been crushed your deepest soul, I can just joyful for the Lord as Joyce Meyer (good biblical teacher). I am a small potato. No man can help me. What's wrong with me? Does God has answered my prayer? Why my situation does not change a bite? I am fed all up! I 've tired and sleepless, I really need a rest, Oh Lord! I can't stop crying!

       No many Christians like Job's attitude. Even me, Oh Jesus, it is very tough for me. But I deny my own feeling, I choose God  and later, I surround to You (God), and asking for help, I can't take any more. Then I keep your promise in me! I can lie and cry out in your shoulders. You are my hope, only you can take my tear aways, put joy into my heart, I may re joy again for you, my Creator, my Savior, my comforter, my teacher, my everlasting helper, my daily provider, my husband, my peacemaker, my love giver, my Father, my Mother, my listener, my preacher, my lover, my best of best friend, my warrior, my winner, my leader, my planer, my decision maker, my heart planter, wisdom & knowledge giver, my Lord and my God ... etc.

         You will say, I don't have any broken heart. I had been depression for five to six times. The worst one was in 2006 to 2007 before I have gone to mission field Tanzania. I had depression for disturbing my listening and seeing confusing. One night, I heard voice to ask me to take a knife from kitchen and kill yourself. I am a born again Christian as a overseas' missionary. I could not do as the voice said, I was so struggling and sinking. I was shouting to God repeatedly for while until I have heard God's voice, not voice in my ears and I have heard God who said to me; "Go and write me a book." I obeyed God and wrote the book in Chinese language for a year. The book is name: I am a missionary, you can too.

         When I wrote the process, my tears would flow down in my paper and other papers, then one day, I discovered that God heals my depression and broken heart too. He has taken away for Good! I choose to pray all time, so that I take my burden to Jesus who will carry me with my emotion, soul, body and spirit.

(1) God understands your affliction (Psalm 31: 7,9)
       You (God) saw my affliction and know the 
       anguish of my soul. It means God understands
        You have had the tough time with no answer.
        Jesus understands you and simply He loves
        you.

(2) God has turned your sorrow to Joy. (Psalm
        30:11)

        He will bring forth justices one day.
        You turned my wailing in to dancing, you
        removed my sack clothes and clothed me with
        joy. We can change our infliction, but Jesus can
       turned our suffering or bad situation to be
       good, better and best. But we have to change
       our attitude and behavior: Trust + Rest =God's
       miracles and deliverance.

       Do you trust in Jesus? Let He does things for you, and you just keep praying and knocking the door, after that just and right will be done in your life time. I believe in Him for you!


Focus on Jesus!

Disobedience

Read: Jonah chapter 1; Numbers 20: 1-13; Psalm 106:33

... for they (Israelites) rebelled against the Spirit of God, and rush words came from Moses lips.
Psalm 106:33

But the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, "Because you did not trust in me enough to honor me as holy in the sight of the Israelites, you will not bring this community into the land I give them."
Numbers 20: 12

       Today, I will give two people who disobeyed God. First one is Jonah, The word of the Lord came to Jonah son of Amittai: "Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it. Because its wickedness  has com into before me." (Jonah 1: 1-2) but Jonah ran away from the Lord and beaded for Tarshish (Span). He wen down to Joppa where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the Lord. (Verses 3) You can see Jonah position is lower and lowest. He went opposite way to Tarshish, Nineveh is another way. Then he went down to Joppa, then down to port, and Jonah had gone below deck where he lay down and fell into a deep sleep (verse 5) and then he was into a big fish stomach for three days and three night. (verse 17)

      Jonah realized he was wrong, he prayed to God for second chance (Jonah 2: 1-9), God answered prayer. And the Lord commanded the fish and it vomited Jonah onto dry land. (verse 10) When we confess our sins (1John 1:9) and repent from our wrongdoings. God will return our position as before as Jonah.

        Who is Moses? God says: "But this is not true of my servant Moses; he is faithful in all my house. (Numbers 12: 7) and 12:3 said, "Now Moses was a very humble man, more humble than anyone else on the face of the earth." Then I (God) speaks with him (Moses), I speak face to face, clearly and not in riddles; he sees the form of the Lord. (12:8). Then in Exodus 33:11 said, "The Lord would speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks with his friend." Oh, my Lord, Moses is very humble, God's friend as face to face clearly talk and he is very faithful for God.

       Why Moses lost obedience and trust God. Because the Israelites pushed Moses temper's limitation. He was so angry with the Israelites, He was also angry with God. He lost his temper and spoke the rush words. God told Moses; "Speak to that rock before their eyes and it will pour out its  water." (Numbers 20: 8) Then Moses raised his arm and struck the rock twice with his staff. Water gushed out, and the community and their livestock drank. (verse 11)

        Then the Lord punished Moses and Aaron  for they did not trust in God enough to honor God as holy in the sight of the Israelites. then they will not bring this community into the land (milk and honey) God give the Israelites. It was sad for Moses.

        It is good to learn obedience by Moses and Jonah experience, we will not do again. Thank you to the Holy Spirit who reminds us not to do as obedience. Praise the Lord!


Disobedience is a way which is out off God's control situation!

God has Compassion for His Children

Read: Isaiah 49:13-18; Psalm 103:13; Jonah 4:10-11

Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child sh has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! Isaiah 49:15

       In Psalm 68: 5-6 said, "A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. God sets the lonely in families, he leads forth the prisoners with singing; but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land." It is GOD who can be a Father or Mother figure, if you like He to be.

          Joyce Meyer gave her testimony, she had been sexual abuse by her father, she married a same king of man, she was very brokenhearted until she has married to David who has been patient for her years after years. She thought that it was her faults, her father had done it for her young ages. And she felt "HOPELESS", because she lost the Father figure. But God is good all the time, he has helped Joyce to be a amazed preacher in all the World with joyful and forever young face. I've admired her from time to time. She overcame all things with forgiveness, dropping and just it goes. Now her teachings are very practical and living. Because she has learned God has compassion for her and her family. She has changed her life completely as a cloud testimony. (Hebrews 12:1)

       In Psalm 103:13 told; "As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him." And Isaiah 49:15-16 spoke; "...... I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you one the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me." God has always remember you and He has compassion for you. Not we are behavior well, but His compassion. We can't use His compassion to sin against God, but fear Him.

       He is our Father, then verse 10 said; "They will neither hunger and thirst, nor will the desert heat or the sun beat upon them. He who has compassion on them will guide them and lead them beside springs of water." He will be our guider who will lead us beside the springs of water for REST.

We have a Father who has compassion for us.

Your Strength will Equal Your Days

Read: Deuteronomy 33: 25-29; 2 Corinthians 4: 7-12;
Psalm 90: 12-17, 65: 11, 103: 5

You crown the year with your bounty, and your carts overflow with abundance. Psalm 65:11

        If I have asked my father about his life, he said, "his life is pain and hopeless....". I am 49 years old. My thought has different with other Christians or my parents. I am thankful and grateful to Jesus who never leaves me or forsakes me. (Hebrews 13:5)

        Maybe my eyes need to wear reading glasses, but I am with God who is with me too. And my strength will equal my days. (Deuteronomy 33: 25) I feel that I am young, passion for Jesus and a lot of plans, I need to finish them and fulfilling my dreams or vision for a great Bible teacher and a international preacher as Joyce Meyer who speaks truth over the nations. I have never want to be retired or rest for tiredness. Because I trust God, my rest will come.

       Psalms 103:5 said, "who satisfies your desires with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's." If you are old ones, you are young and He has renewed you with a great power and a wonderful authority.

       In 2 Corinthians 4: 7-12 said that we have treasures in jars of clay to show all-surpassing power from God and not from ourselves. Even we are hard pressed on every side, but we are not crushed; perplexed in our lives, but even in despair, persecuted, but no abandoned (denied God); struck down, but not destroyed. (spiritual life is living forever with Jesus) We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. (Galatians 2:20) Then Apostle Paul continued to say it, for we are alive, we are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake (suffering for the Name of Jesus), so that his life may be revealed in our mortal body. So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you. (The purpose of life is working in us, it is God's purpose which put the hearts of men. Praise the Lord for all which he has done with the Purpose driven Life with Rick Warren.

            Be content with what we have, be thankful to the Lord who has made today and your life beautiful, because beauty instead ashes. Be alert what you have done wrong, be confessed and repented every day and renewed your mind and heart from time to time with Holy Spirit. Then you trust God who will lead you righteous way. (Psalm 23:3; Proverbs 3:5-6)

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. (direct your path) Proverbs 3: 5-6
