Speaker 2: filled with His work. Today again we'll be meditating on

26
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 2: Psalm one forty seven, verse three from the King James version.

27
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 2: It reads, he healeth the broken in heart, and he

28
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 2: bindeth up their wounds. My friends, let your worship rise

29
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 2: up to God. God. I praise your loving nature. I

30
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 2: adore you because your mercies renew each and every morning. Father,

31
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 2: I praise you for you are my deliverer during my

32
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 2: times of distress. I worship you for you comfort my

33
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 2: soul in this very time of need. And I give

34
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 2: you my adoration for you have the power to heal

35
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 2: this one. Having your heart broken is a brutal and

36
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 2: bitter part of life, and the heart can break for

37
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 2: many different reasons, loss of relationships, opportunities, and possessions, regardless

38
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 2: of the cause, though pain is always present in this scenario,

39
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 2: dealing with pain is difficult, but my friends, you must endure.

40
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 2: Left alone, pain will fester and foul your soul. You

41
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 2: must not let your pain become your identity. God wants

42
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 2: to heal your broken heart, but you must let him

43
00:03:53,560 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 2: do so. So today, right now, confess your pain and

44
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 2: your heartbreak to the Holy Spirit. Share with him your

45
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 2: sorrow and your suffering. Tell the Lord of the agony

46
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 2: that threatens to destroy your heart and kill your spirit.

47
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,359
Speaker 2: Open yourself up to him and reach out for his

48
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:26,720
Speaker 2: refuge and reassurance. Now consider all the times God has

49
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 2: healed your heart and thank him for it. Thank the

50
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 2: Lord for his love and his kindness over you in

51
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 2: times of need. Thank God for being your safe harbor

52
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 2: in the midst of your storm. Thank Him for his

53
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 2: power and his mercy. Thank God for all the times

54
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 2: in the past your broken heart found shelter in him.

55
00:04:55,200 --> 00:05:00,279
Speaker 2: For those seasons he became your refuge and your fortress.

56
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 2: And thank Him for the healing he will always find

57
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 2: in him. My friend's never forget. God is present and

58
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 2: he is listening to you. Come before him and ask

59
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 2: him to heal your broken arm, to take all the

60
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 2: scattered pieces and to put them back together. Ask God

61
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 2: to teach you to lean on him during times of trouble,

62
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 2: to know that he will never fail you, and that

63
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 2: he will never forsake you. Ask the Holy Spirit to

64
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 2: empower you to have faith in God's mercy and to

65
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 2: know that healing and grace can always be found in Him.

66
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 2: Ask God to teach you to seek Him as your

67
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 2: sanctuary in your stronghold, to know He will always be

68
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 2: there to love and to comfort you. Remember, God can

69
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 2: heal your heart and he can remedy your willes He

70
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 2: is the great physician, and he longs to minister to

71
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 2: your soul. You can trust in his promise and in

72
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 2: his word. Choose this day to reach out to Him

73
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 2: for your healing. Open your heart to Jesus and let

74
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 2: him take away your pain. God is the rock upon

75
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 2: which you can stand, and He is a firm foundation.
