September 21, 2019 Rick Warren Daily Hope Devotional : Topic - Face Your Feelings So You Can Be Free

- , ,
--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

“I cried out to God for help; I cried out to God to hear me. When I was in distress, I sought the Lord” (Psalm 77:1-2 NIV).

Have you ever dropped a soda bottle and then opened it right after? What usually happens? It makes a mess!
The worst possible response to hidden wounds in your life is to clam up. It’s like shaking a soda bottle. One day, you’ll just explode!
Bottling up your hidden wounds will wear you out. The Bible says, “When I kept things to myself, I felt weak deep inside me. I moaned all day long” (Psalm 32:3 NCV).
You’ll never get over your hidden wounds until you face your feelings head-on by admitting them to God, yourself, and another person.
Many people try to move past their pain by admitting it to God and themselves, but then they skip the third part of the equation. It will never work. Admitting your pain to others is absolutely essential to your healing. Getting better depends on it: “Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed” (James 5:16 NIV).
You don’t have to confess to a pastor, a priest, or a therapist to obey James 5:16 (although you can). You just need a friend you can trust.
If you use all your emotional energy trying to cover up the past, you’ll have little left for today. Open up about your hidden pain to someone. Tell that person what hurts. By confessing your hidden pain to God, yourself, and another person, you’ll likely find the energy you’ve been living without for so long.
Revealing your feeling is the beginning of healing.
Talk It Over

  • What secret from your past are you having trouble releasing?
  • Why is it so scary to openly discuss or examine a painful memory with God? With ourselves? With others?
  • What person can you safely open up with about pain in your past?

Give hope, prayer, and encouragement below. Post a comment & talk about it.
