One of the things that God has ministered to my life for these difficult times is that many of us cannot experience what he has for our lives because of those wounds of the soul, and I want to share a dream that David had in a psalm where he He made a pact to his friend Jonathan.
David remembers that Jonatan left very quickly and I could not fulfill the covenant, however let's see what 2 Kings says in chapter 9.
David's kindness towards Mephi-bose
9 David said, Has there been any man left of the house of Saul, whom I will show mercy for the love of Jonathan?
2 And there was a servant from the house of Saul, whose name was Shiba, whom they called to come to David. And the king said to him: Are you Siba? And he answered: Your servant.
3 The king said to him, "Is there no one left from the house of Saul, to whom I show mercy to God?" And Shiba answered the king: There is still a son of Jonathan, crippled at the feet.
This story fills my soul, because the monarch who is going to fulfill a pact, lodebar is a place of pain, of wounds of the soul, it is a place where dreams die, there is no word, I love that the King had mercy on his friend's son and he called him and sat him at his table.
"Our greatest successes often come after our greatest disappointments"
-Henry Ward Beecher-
A renowned Christian psychologist and pastor said: Most diseases are functional, created by emotional and spiritual conflicts.
There is a minority that depend on a failure of the machine, which is the body. "
This is also true in the spiritual life. Many times a true, sincere believer, who wants to grow in holiness and please the Lord, yet experiences conflicts and defeats. As much as you study the Word of God and pray, you cannot have victory in certain areas of your life, or a harmonious relationship is difficult even with the brothers in faith.
These situations, in many cases are due to wounds of the soul; and in others to spiritual ties or oppressions. We are going to see some important aspects of the wounds of the soul, and how to receive divine healing if we have them; and in the next lesson we will see the topic of spiritual oppressions.
Mephi-bose, was crippled by the wounds of the soul, he was paralyzed when his nurse trying to save him ran away and the boy fell, how sad the life of the son of an heir to the throne like Jonatan, this example represents how God is the King does not forget his pact with us and if we wish he begins to heal those wounds and pain of the past.
