This song and prayer (see below) I wrote several years ago, during a time that I needed deeper healing and freedom from past pain and struggles. Jesus was and continues to call me into deeper intimacy with Him. I am finding that yes, there are some good encouraging words that people can give to help to a point; but it is God alone who can go to those deepest places and bring healing and restoration. Jesus is the One who binds up the broken-hearted. Through His Word, His Holy Presence, and prayer - I found my heart being transformed and my soul set free from lies and from oppression. I also have to actively obey His Word and let His truth transform me. I experienced and do experience His comfort where there used to be deep inner pain and suffering. I carried a burden that wasn't ever meant for me to carry and as I surrendered a little at a time - I would experience love and peace where there used to be fear and turmoil.
Jesus continues to invite us, each of us, to come to Him - He will give us rest. I was stuck in a prison of fear - and only Jesus could deliver me out of that place - so I could live again, really live... God is Jehovah- Rophe our Healer and He wants to heal us and give us wholeness.
Feeling the calling to be a 'doctor of souls' - I know that I want to bring people closer to Christ, to His presence, His amazing love, the truth in His word and to experience His healing - intimately. I also know that I need to be a willing vessel for God to work in and work through, I can't take people where I haven't gone with Him.
As Isaiah prophesied of Jesus in Isaiah 61:4, "The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me, because the LORD has anointed Me to bring good news to the afflicted; He has sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, proclaim liberty to the captives and freedom to prisoners." (NASB)
Jesus You See My Heart (song and prayer)
Jesus, You see my heart. Make it Your dwelling place.
For I long and I cry out to You, I cry out to You.
Come Jesus heal.
Come Jesus cleanse.
Come Jesus fill.
Every part of me, make it Yours.
Make my heart Your home.
Make my heart Your home.
Cleanse and wash my fears all away.
In You my heart will stay.
In You my heart will stay.
For I long and I cry out to You, I cry out to You.
Come Jesus heal.
Come Jesus cleanse.
Come Jesus fill.
Make my heart Your home.
Make my heart Your home.
