God promises to heal your wounded, scarred, broken, and shattered heart. Counseling, therapy, and even medications have limits on the depth of healing they can provide. Sometimes only a direct, intimate, specific, supernatural word from the Sovereign Creator of the universe can heal an emotional wound. We have a role and responsibility in our healing relationship with Jesus. God cannot heal us without our active participation, beyond even prayer. We must place ourselves in the proper spiritual and emotional position to receive God's healing word into our hearts. That position is Biblical stillness. When God commands us to "be still," He is serious. God wants us to be still according to His definition of stillness. "Being still" does not come naturally, but we can learn specific strategies and techniques to move into still space. From that posture, we can receive the gravitas of His word that heals us immediately.
