God’s Faithful Love And My Recovery

Saturday June 17, 2017

The Jesus Culture band sings a song called “He Is Faithful”.   The words offer great hope to those of us who are recovering our lives and coming to believe in a power greater than ourselves who can restore us to sanity.  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmNLgQr-0wM) 


Some of the lyrics are: “I have heard a sound coming on the winds, changing hearts and minds, healing brokenness.  I feel a generation breaking through despair. I hear a generation full of faith declare, …: He is faithful, He is glorious, He is Jesus, all my hope is in Him.  He is freedom, He is healing right now. He is hope and joy, love and peace and life. … He has paid the highest price. He has proven His great love for us. We will praise Him with our lives and proclaim our love for Him.”

The truth, and theme of the song is, we come out of our darkness into light only because God is faithful.  We find healing for our brokenness only because God fills us with hope and joy and love and peace and life. 

Jesus Christ has proven God’s unfailing love for us by dying on the cross and overcoming death on our behalf.  His resurrection life is our steadfast hope for today.  Jesus Christ living in us and through us gives us the power to overcome any difficulty past, present, or future.  The life we are recovering is this power-filled relationship with God that Jesus has made available to us.

To all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. They are reborn—not with a physical birth resulting from human passion or plan, but a birth that comes from God.  So the Word became human and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father’s one and only Son.  (John 1:12-14 NLT)

When we turn our will and our life over to the care of God, He promises to fill us with new life.  God always keeps His promises.

Prayer:  Into my heart, into my heart, come into my heart Lord Jesus.  Come in today.  Come in to stay.  Come into my heart, Lord Jesus.  Amen
