Hunt for Inner Healing

Bible in a Year: 2 Kings 1-3, Luke 24:1-35

He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted.
Isaiah 61:1

Today's Scripture & Insight: Isaiah 61:1-3

Always a busy guy, Carson hunted, fished, rode dirt bikes, and skateboarded. He loved everything outdoors. But he was in a motorcycle accident and became paralyzed from the chest down. Soon depression sank in, and he didn't see much of a future. Then one day some of his buddies got him to go hunting again. For a time he forgot about his injury as he enjoyed the beauty around him. This experience brought him inner healing and inspired a new purpose for his lifeâ€”to provide the same experience for others like him through a nonprofit organization, Hunt 2 Heal. He says his accident was "a blessing in disguise. . . . Now I'm able to give back, which I've always wanted to do. I'm happy." He's excited about providing a place for those with severe mobility disabilities and their caregivers to find healing.

The prophet Isaiah foretold the coming of One who would bring healing for brokenness (Isaiah 61). He would "bind up the brokenhearted" and "comfort all who mourn" (vv. 1-2). After Jesus read this Scripture in His hometown synagogue, He said, "Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing" (Luke 4:21). Jesus came to save us and make us whole.

Are you in need of inner healing? Turn to Jesus and He'll give you "a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair" (Isaiah 61:3).

Reflect & Pray
In what ways do you need Jesus' healing? Who can you tell about Him and the salvation and wholeness He offers?

Thank You, Jesus, for the healing You've brought to me and many others. I look forward to complete healing in heaven one day.

UNCOVERING EVIL

The presence of the supernatural power of God in a church can take that church beyond limits.
It can also uproot the presence of evil in the midst of Gods children. In Acts 5, a couple were uprooted through this. If we are going to sanitise the church, we need the Holy Spirit. Just as we need Him to heal, save...More
