I long to bring you into the family of believers. The hurt you have faced has kept you away and isolated for far too long. It is time for restoration. Can you trust Me with this part of your life? Can you allow Me to show you that you belong in community with others? Your desire for connection sometimes brings heartache. Hurt does often come from those we allow in, but so does growth, love, and acceptance. Today I declare, you belong!
It is time to open your heart again and allow Me to reach down to the pain and replace the hurt with My love. My love also comes through others. You belong in the grip of that love because you are a part of the body. When you are missing, part of the body is missing. It is time to reconnect again. I am calling you out of your comfort of isolation and asking you to connect to those around you.
Activation: You are so loved, and I want to share you with others. Let’s take some steps together. Close your eyes and imagine with me…Can you imagine belonging to a body of believers, a weekend of fun and games or maybe dinner with some friends? What would it take to make any of this a reality? Could you make a call and arrange dinner or a game night? Or just one step into a church for one service? I believe in you; you are wanted and needed.
For I will restore health to you and heal you of your wounds,’ says the Lord, ‘Because they called you an outcast saying:“This is Zion; no one seeks her.” ’
Jeremiah 30:17 (NKJV)
24 while our more presentable parts do not require it. But God has combined the [whole] body, giving greater honor to that part which lacks it,
25 so that there would be no division or discord in the body [that is, lack of adaptation of the parts to each other], but that the parts may have the same concern for one another.
26 And if one member suffers, all the parts share the suffering; if one member is honored, all rejoice with it.
27 Now you [collectively] are Christ’s body, and individually [you are] members of it [each with his own special purpose and function].
1 Corinthians 12:24-27 (AMP)
