The Brokenhearted
Luke 4:18Â
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 …
Commentary
I have been in Houston, Tx speaking for my ministry Blessing Israeli Believers. This has been a wonderful time as people have really blessed this ministry, and I made great contacts for additional meetings. Entire churches are now behind this ministry. My heart is so lifted up.Â
After speaking at a banquet Thursday night a woman came to me about prayer. I was talking with lots of people and selling my books. She did not know what was wrong but said she needed prayer. I told her we would pray and ask the Lord what was wrong. About five minutes later, the Lord impressed on me her problem had to do with death. After a short time, she said she had an abortion! The problem was her heart was broken over this! She told me went to a counseling program for this. I asked if she had been prayed to have her broken heart healed. She said, “no”
There is no three step program that can heal a broken heart. Only the Lord Jesus through the Holy Spirit can heal this. We prayed can you could see the change come over her as the Lord Jesus healed her heart! She said she had lived in a fog for years and all time it was a broken heart!
I received a wonderful email from her, which I want to share with you.
The Email
Hi John,
I just read your post about “Broken Hearts” one minute ago. And I want to say, that, just yesterday I mentioned to someone that my heart had been broken over and over and over again during the last 36 years. I have been very ill because of this. (Environmentally sensitive and cant support myself)
Could it be that the Lord is bringing out into the open and wanting to heal all of the “broken hearts” out there?
What a wonderful testimony! How the Lord loves us and is so willing to heal our broken hearts! God bless you Brother John for having an ear to hear when the spirit speaks to you…
your friend in Christ, dru
This testimony is very precious! That is real ministry, to bind up the brokenhearted. Forgiveness, even of oneself, healing of a broken heart, spirit, or mind, and even deliverance are key components to spiritual health. I look forward to hearing more from this couple.
God bless you John and also the couple.
beautiful to hear of the holy spirit active, moving, and ministering through you brother John! Praise Jesus!
Praise the Lord! who heals our broken hearts! Since you brooched this subject, Dr. John, the Lord has impressed upon me some who are wounded with broken hearts in my Church Body and pray for their healing.
