Matters Of The Heart: True Healing Starts Within

Image
  Scripture: Mark 7:20–23 And He said, What comes out of a man, that defiles a man. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile a man. For a long time, I believed healing meant fixing what people could see. If I could smile through the pain, keep going, or appear strong, then maybe I was healing. But God has been teaching me something much deeper. Healing starts in the heart. In this Bible verse, Jesus shifts the focus away from outward appearances and points directly to the condition of our hearts. He reminds us that our words, attitudes, and actions don't simply happen—they flow from what has been cultivated within us. That truth challenged me. As I've continued my own healing journey, I've realized that unresolved hurt, fear, rejection, bitterness, pride, and shame don...

The 4 P’s: Presence, Power, Purpose, Protection

 


 For anyone who thinks I do the healing work on my own—I don’t.

The truth is, I was inspired to make a project out of myself—probably because I spent so much time trying to fix other people. But I couldn’t even fix myself.

God did. (No Khaled๐Ÿ˜)

I sought His Presence (His presence comes with Peace) because I was tired of being let down by people. And when I did… He met me there.

Scripture: 

“Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.”
— James 4:8 (NKJV)

Affirmation:

I am never alone—God’s presence surrounds and sustains me.
I rest in His nearness and peace.

 He gave me Power.
People say I’m strong, courageous—but honestly?
My flesh is weak and I was spiritually weak..
It is God who strengthens me.

Scripture:

“But He said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness.’”
— 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV)

Affirmation:

In my weakness, God’s power is made strong.
I rise each day empowered by His Spirit.

 He revealed His Purpose for my life—
Something I always felt deep down… but ran from.
And I realize now, the enemy had access producing those doubts for too long.

Scripture:

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
— Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)

Affirmation:

I was created on purpose, for a purpose.
I walk boldly in the calling God placed over my life.

 

And even now, God continues to offer Protection.
No weapon formed against me shall prosper.
He is my hiding place. My shield. My covering.

Scripture:

“No weapon formed against you shall prosper…”
— Isaiah 54:17 (NKJV)

Affirmation:

I am covered, guarded, and shielded by God.
His protection goes before me and surrounds me always.

I give thanks for all He has done…
For what He is doing now…
And for what will be done in Jesus’ name
