Everyone Needs Healing
By Ellis Matthews

HURT

ANGER
LONELINESS
INSECURITY
NEGATIVITY
GROWTH

From the creation of man until this very day, there has always been a need for healing. Healing has the power to give life where there's a dead situation. Healing has in it, the gift of growth. What season is it that we're in? Our calendar tells us it's winter.

If I may, I'd like to borrow a verse or two from King Solomons words of wisdom. "To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven. A time to kill, and a time to heal..A time to break down and a time to build up." This my brothers, is the season to heal. I know some of you are saying, I don't need any healing. I'm fine! I am in the best of health. I work out all the time. I don't take any kind of medication. My reason for being here'is to tell you, my brothers, you are so wrong! everyone is in need of some form of healing, and if I can touch just one person, my job will be complete. Someone needs spiritual healing! I don't know too many people who don't need financial healing. Some one is in need of physical healing. Emotional healing is needed somewhere today. Brother, our purpose is to set free and let go. Free those you are keeping from their healing. Let go of what you may ask. The things that stand between you and your healing. Those things are what? Hurt, Envy, Loneliness, Insecurity, Negativity. Once that"s done, growth will set in and with it healing. Who among you found the power to overcome drugs or any other hazardous situation? You were healed! We live in a country that is in need of a healing. Someone has a home in need of healing. A relationship. A friendship is in need of healing right now.The loving touch of a mother is needed to heal some one. A kind word from the lips of that special, lady has the power to heal. Someone has an open wound right now that has begun to smell. Heal yourself and forgive him or her. Let healing bring about growth in your life. what is it that's hurting you? Make peace. Forgive your- self and move on. Is it a son or daughter? Maybe a sister or brother that needs your words of healing. It's gone on long enough. Healing is free to give or receive. Don't pretend any longer. That thing which keeps you awake at night can be healed. That situation that no one knows about but you, can be healed. Stop fighting! Let go. Make peace. A healing is waiting to take place. Bear with me please. Mental healing is needed to bring peace to those minds that are weary today. Set your self back on course. Be changed in your beliefs about yourself. Heal yourseft, your family, your friends, your kids. How have you lived with that wound for so long? Don't lie to yourself another minute. The time is now. The season is upon us. It's time to kill the thing we've allowed to destroy everything we love. Kill, hurt, envy and anger. Break down the walls of lone- liness, insecurity and negativity. That will allow you to experience growth in your life. This will give birth to the healing you need.
