Allowing God to Heal You!

It does not matter what you have gone through in the past, God is asking you to allow Him to heal you. The word "past" means completed, ended and time has already elapsed. Yes, you may still be hurting from the happenings/relationships of the past, but the Lord wants you to give them to Him. He is the only one who can really touch and heal you in a miraculous way. Yes, God understands what you have gone through, because He was in there with you all along; but you may not have known it. His Word says in  Isaiah 43:2 , "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze".
Wow, what a divine and awesome protection for you! All the time you were going through some serious stuff in the past, God did not let you drown in it and He did not let you get destroyed. What a kind and compassionate God we serve! He is with you all the time and He is watching over you. He will not let go through stuff that you cannot cope with. He will always show up and give you strength. Now that all these things are in the past, He says your "past troubles will be forgotten and hidden from my eyes". Isaiah 65: 16. The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind, as He will take care of them. Our God will uphold you with His righteous right hand and help you to cope with the past hurts. He wants you to "forget the former things and do not dwell on the past". Isaiah 43:18 . You see, your past is God's raw material for working out your present and your future. Your past was a training ground for your promotion. He will use your past to touch other lives and turn it to a message to bless others. But He cannot do this unless you allow Him to heal you first. Once you are healed and cleansed by our Almighty God, then you can focus on serving Him and using your past experience to bless others. Our God is able; let go and let Him help you. I am not despising your past, but I encourage you not to dwell on it, as there is nothing you can do about it. But God is able to do something about it. He can turn it around for His own glory. It does not matter what you have done, God will forgive you, once you have confessed them to Him and committed your life to Jesus Christ. He loves you so much He gave you the best. He sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to come and die on the cross, even for all the things done in the past. Jesus nailed them onto the cross so that you will be free. Why carry them along with you? Paul used to persecute and kill Christians, before our Lord Jesus, stopped him on the way to Damascus. Despite all his horrible past, God chose to use Him to touch lives, for His own glory. The Lord used Apostle Paul to write two thirds of the New Testament. God can use you also, if you let Him. I encourage you to allow Him to heal you and be set free from the excess baggage you are carrying with you. It is not worth carrying all this pain; you need to be set free. If you let Him, you can get your deliverance today and go on to be what He has called you to be. God is waiting on you!
