Emotional Pain

‘Then he said to me, “Speak a prophetic message to the winds, son of man. Speak a prophetic message and say, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Come, O breath, from the four winds! Breathe into these dead bodies so they may live again.’” So I spoke the message as he commanded me, and breath came into their bodies. They all came to life and stood up on their feet—a great army.’ Ezekiel 37:9-10 (NLT)

‘When Mary arrived and saw Jesus, she fell at his feet and said, “Lord, if only you had been here, my brother would not have died.” When Jesus saw her weeping and saw the other people wailing with her, a deep anger welled up within him, and he was deeply troubled. “Where have you put him?” he asked them. They told him, “Lord, come and see.” Then Jesus wept. The people who were standing nearby said, “See how much he loved him!” ‘ John 11:32-36 (NLT)

Ezekiel 37 is a prophecy for our lives, to be inspirational speakers. Speak life to yourself and to others, and declare the work of the Lord.

While I was in America, one of my sisters died at a very young age, and I was not able to attend her funeral. My heart was so broken that I developed “broken heart syndrome” and felt bitterness deep in my soul. I was depressed and unable to eat or enjoy food.

People sometimes minimize or disregard emotions when talking about our Creator. But God grieves with us. Allow your heart to be broken, because Jesus’ heart was broken. Jesus Christ has emotions about our pain. It is the fellowship of His suffering for our sins, so we suffer in many situations. Jesus in Gethsemane entered the fellowship of His sufferings because of the joy that was before Him, to give us eternal salvation from eternal punishment.

Emptiness and despair can seem to last forever. But they only last for a season. The Lord is able to lift you out of despair and renew your hope and joy, bringing life back to your “drying bones.” In the Bible are many stories written as examples for us to follow in our daily lives to help us overcome emotional pain and bitterness.
