He Heals Us -- Not A Program

We are not healed by running over our feelings and thoughts all the time.

We are not set from free from our fears and hurts with counseling, psychotherapy, or anything else.

We are set free through the Spirit of God, by the power of the Cross.

"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love." (1 John 4: 18)

We are not called to live any kind of life filled with fear.

Yet this fear cannot be driven out by calling people, talking to them, crying on their shoulder about our circumstances.

We are set free as we look on Jesus, who died on the Cross to set us free, that He may minister on our behalf by the power of an endless life.

He heals us, even our hurts and our pains.

Yet for years, I believed that every time I was angry, fearful, or hurt, I had to run to someone else, and get that person to take away my fears.

It never worked. It never works.

Jesus Christ is bigger than our times, our troubles, or tales, or trials.

He is bigger than all of it, because He has been since the beginning (1 John 2: 12-14)

I write this post with a great deal of anger and dismay. For so many years, I was taught to fight and fix my feelings, when instead I need to fix my heart on Himself.

Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is watching out for us, and living in and through us.

We cannot conceive how Great He is. We must receive this revelation through the Word of God.

He heals us, and He repairs us:

"Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:" (Philippians 1: 6)


and

"6That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus." (Philemon 1: 6)

and

"But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord." (2 Corinthians 3: 18)
