Repairing The Broken

Jesus specifies that He is the one that can put broken things back together again.  In Luke 4:17-19, he said “And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord."
How many of individuals that you know have been broken before? Your family members? You co-workers? Your pastor or his family? Maybe even you?
Were they broken by someone who betrayed you? Were they broken by the circumstances that they had to face in everyday life? Were they broken by a family crisis that never seemed to have an ending? Were they broken because their health failed and nothing helped the pain? Were they broken because somebody intentionally hurt them just to justify themselves? So many reasons exist today that in a split second can break even the strongest people among us.
That is why Jesus is still the answer for broken lives, broken hearts and broken families today. He is able to bind up your wounds, heal the brokenness in your heart, and lift the heaviness from your spirit. When you are broken there is only one person who can put you back together and His name is Jesus!
So if you need Him to touch your area of brokenness today just ask Him. He has an answer with your name on it and is standing by to bring it to pass in your life.
Jeremiah 33:3 " Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show you great and mighty things which thou knoweth not!"
