Nation needs emotional healing

WE ARE living in a society that is broken and needs healing. There are many in influential positions within the society who need emotional healing, but it cannot be done through, or by, medical resources, only through spiritual empowerment and deliverance.

A person who needs spiritual and emotional healing first has to identify the root cause. Then the process starts with forgiveness, which is key. Many who have suffered emotionally have experienced that suffering through painful circumstances such as rape, absence of parent(s), and verbal/physical abuse in childhood by family members or others; it could even be as a result of negative words spoken by a teacher or schoolmate.

There are many who have been told that they would never amount to anything good. Interestingly, because of this kind of abuse, many persons take on different levels of academic study to prove their naysayers wrong. Some, as a result, become professional students, accumulating degree upon degree.

STILL NOT HEALED

If a person is motivated to achieve success based on negative circumstances, they are still not yet healed from the root issue. Many have chosen careers that God did not intend for them. People who have not yet experienced joy, despite their success, can only receive the level of emotional healing they need through the Holy Spirit. Some will go into many forms of spiritualism in their pursuit for healing and joy – yoga, transcendental meditation and so on, but they will not find the true joy there – it simply creates a cycle of mood swings, instability and leaves them unable to maintain relationships, while blaming others. Some become cold and even abusive at the workplace.
