WORDS THAT HURT / WORDS THAT HEAL.

in #steemchurch6 years ago (edited)

I think we have all gone through hard times at some point in our lives, until Jesus passed them, that is why he left us his word, so that through it we can overcome them.

God has always told me that the Bible without the revelation of his spirit are simply logos, dead words. What makes these words live is the breath of his spirit that makes a rhema within us, sows the seed and bears its fruit. To take us to levels of unimaginable faith and through it walk in the supernatural, God is the same as yesterday, we must be like those men and women of antiquity who snatched the greatest miracles.

The theme of today are words that hurt and words that heal, I understood that the word has a lot of power, by the word we were created, and all things were created, Jesus was the verb and Jesus is still that word that heals. there are many people, families destroyed, friendships broken because of the word. In my particular case I have passed many times through these situations and there are still things that want to make an affection contrary to the will of God. The good news is that those who love God all things help him well, the antidote is the identity that we have in Christ.

The people who have a dream of God in our hearts will always be persecuted, will send us words of discouragement, of disunion, of curse so that these have negative influences in the spiritual world, is there something that can stand in the way of God's plans?
Maybe someone does not like what you do, but they start to fight against you, when they do not know that their struggle is against God himself, we all have a design, a plan, a purpose.

The dialogue on that Friday morning was bitter.

Of the spectators:

  • If you are the son of God, get off the cross!

Of the religious leaders:

  • He saved others, but he can not save himself.

*Of the soldiers:

  • If you are the king of the Jews, save yourself.

Bitter words Hate. Irreverence. Was not it enough that He was being crucified? Was not it enough that he was being embarrassed as a criminal? Was not the nails enough? Was the crown of thorns too soft? Had the whipping been very poor? For some, apparently yes.

Peter, says that those who passed close insults to the crucified Christ. 1 Peter 2:23
They not only insulted, talked or blasphemed. verbal stones They had every intention of hurting and hurting.
"We have broken the body, now we break the spirit!". In that way his bows with the arrows of his selfjustice and torturous darts of pure poison.

Of all the scenes around the cross, this is the one that angers me the most. What kind of people, I wonder, will make fun of a dying man? Who would be so indolent as to put salt in open wounds? Or who would point a finger and laugh at a criminal who has the rope around his neck? You can be sure that Satan and his demons were the cause of such filth.

And then the criminal on the cross number two launches his blow:

  • Are not you the Christ? Save yourself and us!
    The words thrown that day were meant to hurt. And there is nothing more painful than words that are meant to hurt. That is the reason why Santiago calls the tongue a fire. Their flames are so malignant and destructive that they shatter like those of a great torch.

But I'm not telling you anything new. Undoubtedly you have had to endure words that hurt. You have felt the torture of a well-aimed mockery. Maybe you are feeling it. Someone you love or respect whips you on the floor with a whip or with the fire of your tongue. And there you lie; hurt and bleeding. Maybe the words were aimed at hurting him, maybe not; But that does not matter. The wound is deep. The damages are internal. Broken heart, hurt pride, hurt feelings.
Or maybe his wound is old. Although the arrow was removed long ago, the tip still remains ... hidden under your skin. The old pain surfaces unpredictably and decisively reminding him of the stinging words not yet forgiven.

If you have suffered - or are suffering - due to someone's words, you will be glad to know that there is a balm for this laceration. Meditate on the words of 1 Peter 2:23: "Who, when they cursed him, did not answer with a curse: when he suffered, he did not threaten, but commanded the cause of him who judges righteously"
Do you see what Jesus did not do? He did not retaliate. He did not return the offense. He did not say: You'll see! Come here and say that in my face! Just wait until after the resurrection, boob! No, these statements were not found on the lips of Christ.

Did you see what Jesus did? He entrusted his cause to the one who judges righteously. Or, more simply, he left the judgment to God. He did not take on the task of seeking revenge, He did not demand explanations. He did not pay any emissary or send anyone with any proposal. He, unlike the normal reaction, amazingly, spoke in defense of them: Luke 23:24
Yes, the dialogue on that Friday morning was bitter.

The verbal stones were meant to torment and torture. How Jesus - with a body broken by pain, his eyes blinded by his own blood, and his lungs puffing anxiously for air - could speak in favor of heartless evils, is something that goes beyond my comprehension. I have never seen such love.

If ever a person deserved a good opportunity for revenge, Jesus was that person. But He did not take it. Instead he died for his adversaries. How could he do it? I do not know. But I do know that all my wounds seem insignificant.

My grudges and hard feelings suddenly become childish. Sometimes I am surprised to see the love of Christ, not so much for the people he tolerated as for the pain he endured.

The exit to all disappointment and pain is called Jesus, I have lived in my own flesh, as a human being we have allowed ourselves to mourn, to be sad, to give rise to feelings at some time, but those of us who have God, we know that they will be waters What happened, one thing I do when I feel I have no strength is to look for friendly people with whom to share and I say: Look for all the beautiful songs that exist, share this day or these hours those beautiful lyrics, let the flesh be released little, the feelings go out to float, but it will only be a moment of humanity, people who have a divine purpose will never lie down to mourn their wounds, when they know there is a town, a crowd that waits for it, if I have to decide between my feelings and God, I will always choose God!

Thanks to my beautiful brothers who write to me every day and send me logos, I will try to use them all. With love,

I agree with you dear sister whatever we use our mouths to say, we should ask ourselves that does it pleased God...? Greetings.

Words mark, hurt, cheer, motivate, demotivate ... they are addressed in order to bless or curse. but we have an outlet to those words that come to wound us, we have Jesus, who strengthens us, heals us and restores any wound, however wide it may be.
Thank you @darlenys for those words, which always feed our soul.
God bless you and make your ministry prosper.

What a beautiful Apostle @darlenys01, your words always encourage us, build and help us grow. Thank you for sharing with us.

The Bible teaches that a kind word can animate, nourish and amend a broken heart. Proverbs 16:24 says: Sweet words are a honeycomb: they sweeten the mood and give new strength. "A well-thought word can help restore trust, hope and purpose to a spouse who feels dejected, lost and confused.

What a good word apostle @darlenys01, I admire your prophetic revelation and the most important thing that speaks to us from your heart and your own experiences.

ds can heal and words can hurt. Thanks Ma for sharing this deep lessons.

The word has power, we can bless and curse a person's life

We are called to bless people, not to curse

There is always power in our words. We should be rooted in the word of God in order to fill our heart with the word that will bring life to our body and soul and bless those around us.

As it costs to be redirected, to have its character. But then the wonderful Holy Spirit works and teaches us to wait in it and gives us the best way out.

Thank you my apostol, always your words are of encouragement, of help of forces.

only Jesus Christ gives us calm in the midst of the storm.
Thank you for reminding us of your promises @darlenys.

Exactly sister, there are words that hurt a lot and mark our lives, and we must ask God to heal our hearts, that we can forgive and leave everything in the hands of God. Who are we to judge, if God did not judge anyone when they crucified him ... Excellent reflection, sister @Darlenys01.
