Heals the Brokenhearted?

Heals the Brokenhearted?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know God heals the heartbroken and binds up their wounds. In Jesus’ name, amen.

For all the despairing and despondent people who feel crushed by life’s circumstances, God is able to provide healing.

Psalm 147:1-6 (ESV) praises God and gives reasons he is praiseworthy including his healing power.

“Praise the Lord!
For it is good to sing praises to our God;
for it is pleasant, and a song of praise is fitting.
The Lord builds up Jerusalem;
he gathers the outcasts of Israel.
He heals the brokenhearted
and binds up their wounds.
He determines the number of the stars;
he gives to all of them their names.
Great is our Lord, and abundant in power;
his understanding is beyond measure.
The Lord lifts up the humble;
he casts the wicked to the ground.”

The God who determines the number of the stars is able to heal the brokenhearted. Remain humble. Praise God. Trust him if you are hurting. Ask him to bind up your wounds.

Bless the Lord, O My Soul?

Bless the Lord, O My Soul?

Dear Lord, I pray for those who say, “Bless the Lord, O my soul.” In Jesus’ name, amen.

When a person says, Bless the Lord,” her or she is doing so in reverence to consecrate, exalt, and hallow God.

Psalm 103:1-5 (ESV) highlights the ways God forgives, heals, redeems, crowns, satisfies, and renews.

“Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and all that is within me,
bless his holy name!
Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and forget not all his benefits,
who forgives all your iniquity,
who heals all your diseases,
who redeems your life from the pit,
who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,
who satisfies you with good
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.”

Praise God you served a mighty God. Rejoice for all he has done, is doing, and will do in the future.
