7 Scriptures Revealing The Depth Of Christ’s Anguish.
Happy Easter Week dear family. This is a particularly special time in the Christian calendar, as we meditate on, commemorate, and are once again transformed by the ultimate sacrifice and demonstration of the love of the God.
I hope you will enjoy this year’s Passion program, created for you, especially those seeking a deeper revelation of the most important story in all creation. To participate, please use these details: whatthewordsays.org/thepassion
Within this soul wellness section, I wanted to share some insights into the emotional state of the Lord Jesus Christ during His betrayal, trial, and crucifixion. These insights can be found in the messianic prophecies within the books of the prophets. This reveals Christ’s humanity and all that He overcame emotionally, in addition to the physical suffering, to fulfill His calling. While the Gospels offer eyewitness accounts of the Lord Jesus Christ’s physical experiences, the prophets illuminate His emotional state during this time, making this story of love and passion even more profound.
These seven scriptures highlight emotional states that anyone might experience. Today, I want to encourage you to bring these feelings to the Lord Jesus. If anyone can truly understand and identify with you, it is Him.
Hebrews 4:15 (KJV) states, “For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.”
He not only endured the physical ailments common in the world but also experienced emotional suffering.
The good news is this: He not only relates to and understands you, but He also heals you today through His precious sacrifice.
Prayer:
I pray for everyone who reads this article and reflects on these scriptures today: may you be healed in the depths of your soul from all emotional and mental hurts, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. May every broken heart be healed and every wound bound up. May there be a full restoration from all the years this pain has held you back. May you recover in your relationships, your health, and your purpose, and may you walk in total wellness and soundness of mind, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
Now, rise from that grave of mental and emotional bondage, just as the Lord Jesus Christ did. Step out of feelings of rejection and separation, out from disrepute and reproach, and begin to use His word to renew your mind about who He has made you to be.
