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

Are you looking for some encouragement today? Are you seeking healing for your body? For a relationship, your mind, a broken heart, your finances? Our God is a healer, it doesn’t matter what is “broken.” He is mightier than any problem you will ever face.

Pastor Naeem Callaway, author of the blog “Spiritual Inspiration,” shared this in regard to Psalm 147:3 and I found it so poignant I wanted to pass it along…

“Notice what the Psalmist says in this verse: He binds up their wounds. In the natural, if you have a broken arm, it doesn’t just heal over night. The doctor makes a cast to hold it in place and protect it. He binds up your wound. In the spiritual realm, God does the same thing. He wraps Himself around your brokenness and protects the wounded area until it is strong enough to function properly again. The Bible also says that He is a restorer. That means that when He does a work of healing in our lives, He makes us better than we were before.

If you’re going through the healing process today, know this: it may take longer than you planned, but God is binding up your wound. He is protecting you and healing you. He will bring you out better and stronger than you were before. He will take you to a place of complete healing so that you can live the life of victory He has in store for you.”

Be encouraged today and rest in the healing presence of our Savior.
