If you’re carrying emotional wounds—grief, shame, or anxiety from the scars of past hurts—you’re not alone. Christ doesn’t just save for eternity; He heals now by the same truth. In Him, brokenness meets grace, and the journey from pain to wholeness begins.
What Does It Mean to Be Healed in Christ?
To be “healed in Christ” means your deepest needs are met at the source. It’s not mere self-help or a quick fix. True healing happens as you:
- Identify the root experiences and negative beliefs that shaped your self-worth
- Lament the pain of the shame, fear, and confusion, knowing that God hears you
- Experience your core longings being met in a secure relationship where grace transforms wounds
Scripture calls Him “the healer of the brokenhearted” and promises “beauty for ashes.”
He heals the brokenhearted
Psalm 147:3 ESV
and binds up their wounds.
To all who mourn in Israel,
Isaiah 61:3 NLT
he will give a crown of beauty for ashes,
a joyous blessing instead of mourning,
festive praise instead of despair.
In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks
that the Lord has planted for his own glory.
Healing in Christ is both the immediate gift of His Spirit and the process of knowing Christ through His indwelling Spirit.
