Get Healthy

After a divorce, you have wounds that need time to heal. We often have spiritual, physical, emotional, and financial hurts. The last thing you want to do is make critical life decisions if you're experiencing any of these wounds. Give God time to heal you before you start dating again. Otherwise, your wounds will cause you to bleed on people who never cut you.

The reality is we have to face our hurts and pains. Focus on identifying your wounds. Whether they come from divorce, childhood, or things that have happened elsewhere in your life, give God time to heal you.

Let the pain of your divorce and other wounds go. Give it to God. Let Him heal your heart. Healing is the first step toward getting healthy.

3. Forgive those who have wounded you.
4. Ask God to heal all of your wounds.
5. Declare God is a good father and thank Him for always being faithful to forgive and heal you.

Prayer

Lord, I need your help today. I want to be healthy. You say there is a time for every matter under heaven. A time to cry, mourn and heal. I open my heart to you, God. I am asking you, Jesus, to spiritually perform heart surgery on me. God, show me all the hurt and broken places in me. Lord, please forgive me for the wrongs I have done. Please forgive me for believing any lies spoken to me about who I am. Lord, I ask you to forgive me for these sins. Please help me to forgive myself. I forgive all those who spoke these lies and all the people who have sinned against me. I am asking for strength and wisdom to walk the way you want me to through life. I thank you, Lord, and I receive your forgiveness. Today I am a clean slate and ready to become the person, spouse, and child of God you created me to be. In Jesus' name, amen.
