COMFORT FOR THE WEARY: JESUS’ GENTLE EMBRACE (6)

TIMES OF REFRESHING DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org

DATE: THURSDAY, 12 SEPTEMBER 2024

Jesus’ embrace brings healing and restoration. Life’s journey is filled with moments that can leave us wounded—physically, emotionally, or spiritually. Whether we are dealing with the pain of loss, the weight of failure, or the sting of betrayal, these wounds can leave us feeling broken and in need of healing. Thankfully, Jesus offers something the world cannot: true and lasting healing and restoration. Psalm 147:3 beautifully captures this promise:

SCRIPTURE: He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” — Psalm 147:3 (NIV)

REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: This verse reminds us of God’s tender care for those who are hurting. Jesus meets us in our brokenness, offering not just a temporary bandage but a deep, restorative healing that brings us back to wholeness. Stay Refreshed!

NOTE THIS: Jesus’ embrace doesn’t just comfort us in our pain; it actively restores us, bringing wholeness to the places that feel shattered.

RESPONSIBILITY: So, beloved, let us come to Jesus Christ today, even in the most painful circumstances, we can trust in His power to heal and His promise of ultimate restoration.

PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, I come before You today, seeking Your healing touch in every area of my life. You know the pain and brokenness I carry, both in my heart and in my spirit. I ask that You heal the wounds that run deep within me. In Jesus’ name, we pray, Amen.

PROPHETIC WORD: As we come to Jesus today, may He mend the places that we feel shattered and bring wholeness to our lives. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

BIBLE TEXTS: Psalm 147:3
