He Heals the Brokenhearted

Some wounds don’t show on the surface, but they shape your worldview and thoughts. Unfortunately, heartbreak, loss, and deep disappointments leave marks that feel impossible to erase. Maybe you’ve carried pain for years, or perhaps fresh grief weighs on your heart. When life shatters something precious, you may wonder if healing is possible. But Jesus, in His resurrection power, steps into your sorrow with a promise: He heals the brokenhearted.

He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
– Psalm 147:3 ESV

The same power that raised Christ from the dead brings life to the places in you that feel lifeless and painful. His resurrection—more than a moment of victory over the grave—declared nothing, not even the deepest wounds, can stand against His healing touch. When Jesus rose, He conquered sin and death and made a way for restoration. His love reaches into the broken spaces and breathes hope where despair once lived.

Think of the disciples after the crucifixion. They followed Jesus, trusted Him, and then watched as He was beaten, mocked, and nailed to the cross. Their hope initially seemed to die with Him. But three days later, everything changed. The same Savior who met them then meets you now.

Jesus is the authority to overcome pain and hurt.

Healing doesn’t always happen in an instant. Jesus, in His kindness, walks with you through the pain. He doesn’t rush you past grief or dismiss your wounds. Instead, Jesus invites you to bring it all to Him. He knows betrayal, loneliness, and heartbreak. Yet, His scars are no longer signs of pain but marks of victory.

Christ’s resurrection promises you restoration, not just in eternity but now. Let His truth replace the lies that say healing will never come. He is faithful. He binds up the wounds others ignore and brings wholeness where you least expect it.
