Psalm 34:18 “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.”
Psalm 73:26 “My flesh and my heart failed: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion forever.”
Matthew 5:4 “Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.”
Some people think they have no control over emotional problems. I’m saying it’s a decision. There are scriptures that deal with regret. There are scriptures that deal with Anxiety. There are scriptures that deal with sorrow. Take those scriptures and pray them. Quote those scriptures and they will displace disappointments, depression, anxiety, and regret. It doesn’t happen overnight. The decision does, but the process takes a little time and it’s still worth it. You might as well be doing that rather than be worrying about it.
Because of the word and the entrance of the word, and what the word does in your life, whenever memories of heartache come up, you can resist them like you will resist an intruder in your house, or like you will resist sickness and disease. Once they’re gone, you can develop a resistance, you can put walls around and say I’m not going there. You’ve been hurt as long as you should be, you’ve been sad about this as long as you should. You must move on. Get ready for the future by getting over your disappointments, sadness, and regrets.
