Spiritual and Emotional Healing
Sin, abuse, neglect, rejection, betrayal all cause significant emotional and spiritual pain that hurt just as physical pain does. God, our Great Physician, can ultimately heal our broken hearts and bind our wounds, healing, and making us whole. Spiritual and emotional healing is often a process with steps that we need to put action behind. Use these scriptures to guide your heart and mind toward full recovery.

The Season of Healing (Time to Embrace and A Time to Refrain)
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
To everything [there is] a season, A time for every purpose under heaven: A time to be born, And a time to die; A time to plant, And a time to pluck [what is] planted; A time to kill, And a time to heal; A time to break down, And a time to build up; A time to weep, And a time to laugh; A time to mourn, And a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, And a time to gather stones; A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing; A time to gain, And a time to lose; A time to keep, And a time to throw away; A time to tear, And a time to sew; A time to keep silence, And a time to speak; A time to love, And a time to hate; A time of war, And a time of peace.
There is a challenge to detailing these passages of scripture is like trending into murky shallow waters. The symbolism of Kairos is deeply reflected because there are 28 examples of seasons with counter seasons. The time to embrace relates to the Kairos season to hold tightly to the things that God has spoken and the things that He has given to us. If we hold tight to what He has ordained then the time to let things that are not of Him will not be difficult to embrace. When we let go of the things that are not of God we will find ourselves Glorifying Him, which is our purpose. Will you choose to embrace and know when to let go?
Elohim Kedoshim, Holy God - Joshua 24:19; we thank You Holy God for the effective and fervent petitions of the righteous. We praise You for the Kairos of Your seasons where in You have opened our eyes and our hearts to receive You Blessings. We declare and decree the blessing (the indwelling of the Holy Spirit) upon those who embrace in the Spirit, so that; we who do and hear Your purpose, will embrace it for Your Glory. Now, for the Kingdom and Glory of God, we petition, with anointing, in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord, and Savior, Amen.
