      Jesus, Healer of the Brokenhearted - Frank Meadows

      gifts.

      Are you discouraged and seeking a breakthrough in your life? Maybe you have tried therapy, self-help books or other treatment, but you are still hurting. If you are in need of a healing, why not consider the wholeness that only Jesus can offer? This book is primarily for people in need of personal healing and transformation and who are open to a Christian world view. The principles in this book are predicated totally and completely upon a Christian world view, the Bible, God’s written Word, which is His revelation to humankind, His beloved children. Jesus is alive and active in our lives today, and this concept is central to this book. Jesus is the living Word that became flesh and dwelt among us. God is not dead, but He is alive, contrary to what some may say. I experience Him daily when I minister to countless people and co-labor with Him. He uses me as a vessel as He brings miraculous healing truth to the wounded, hurt and broken. Many Christians in need of a healing breakthrough have not fully understood the simple but powerful salvation made available for us through Jesus. We have been blessed with the gift of the Holy Spirit, through which He ministers, heals and strengthens us.

      Jesus, the God-man, came into this world so that God could reveal Himself and His love to us. Many do not understand that we are created for intimacy with God. Without spiritual intimacy with our Creator, we walk through life with a hole in our soul. Something is missing, and we often don’t know what we lack or why. We fill the hole with the wrong things, seeking to fill our emptiness and spiritual void. We medicate with Mood-altering compulsive behaviors, relationships, success and material things. Ultimately, trying to satisfy our brokenness in these ways is like filling our car with water instead of fuel and expecting it to run properly; the holes in our souls cannot be filled with anything apart from God.

      As Christians, we need to read carefully the Bible, our Heavenly Designer’s manual. In it, God showed us His love so that we could be redeemed from the sinful state that separated us from Him. He died so we could be connected to Him, now and forevermore! As a part of our covenant of salvation, God planned to heal, renew and restore His creation. This unbelievable plan included provision to redeem, renew and restore us by healing us and putting us in right relationship with Him. Through the cross, God provided for our healing, mind renewal and restoration.

      And may the God of peace Himself sanctify you through and through [separate you from profane things, make you pure and wholly consecrated to God]; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved sound and complete [and found] blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah).

      (1 THESSALONIANS 5:23, AMP)

      We are all wounded and broken, some almost beyond repair. Humanity is far more in need of a savior than we will ever know. The good news is that the healing, mind renewing power of Jesus Christ is available for all who will receive Him. If we receive Jesus as our Savior and Lord, we open the door to all the covenant promises of God in our lives.

      But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name.

      (JOHN 1:12, NKJV)

      The purpose of this book is to understand the problem of the human condition in our broken state and to teach readers how to receive its remedy practically. I believe the solution to the broken state of humanity is the life-saving power of the triune God, who provides all we need to walk in healing, mind renewal, restoration and wholeness. When we know Him and receive all He has to offer, we become whole, fully able to fulfill our destiny, life purpose and calling.

      In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God…And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.

      (JOHN 1:1,14, NKJV)

      HEALING PRINCIPLE: We are all wounded and broken, some almost beyond repair. However, God has made provision for our healing, mind renewal, and restoration through Jesus Christ. Healing is available to all who will receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

      For many years, I have worked as a mental health professional, licensed clinical social worker, and psychotherapist in a Christian counseling setting. I have helped thousands of people wrestle through many psychological, mental and relational problems. Many have come for help, experiencing difficulties with their marriages, parenting, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorders, and a myriad of various psychological problems. I have counseled and ministered to many who have been victims of sexual, physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual trauma and abuse.

      My desire has always been to integrate sound biblical principles, under the guidance and direction of the Holy Spirit, with sound psychological concepts to help move people from victimhood into victory. In order to maximize the healing of the brokenhearted, I believe the therapist or healing prayer minister must operate in the gifts and power of the Holy Spirit. God intends for those who minister healing to bring nothing less than the full measure of the gospel of Jesus Christ to those to whom we minister. He fully expects and intends for us to receive the message of the power of the cross and the shed blood of Jesus to manifest in our own lives so it can witness to those receiving ministry. For this reason, the therapist must flow in the gifts and power of the Holy Spirit.

      My journey in healing began when I was quite young. In retrospect, I can see God’s call on my life from an early age. I was raised in an evangelical, Free Methodist Christian tradition where my father was a pastor for many years. As I look back on my life, I can see the Lord’s fingerprints on my destiny, even though I was unaware of it as a youth. When in college, my studies gave me the opportunity to move deeper into the calling God had placed on my life. I attended Spring Arbor College (now Spring Arbor University), a Christian liberal arts school in Spring Arbor, Michigan. I was raised in an evangelical, biblical tradition that was not oriented to a charismatic experience. Somehow, even though this was not in my particular stream of Christianity, I found myself drawn to books on inner healing early in my college years, such as Healing for Damaged Emotions by David A. Seamands, and other related books. I now understand that was God wooing me toward Spirit-led, inner healing prayer.

      In 1999, a major shift occurred in my counseling ministry. I came across a healing approach called Theophostic Healing Prayer (TPM) that changed everything for me. After training with the TPM founder, Dr. Ed Smith, I discovered we had lived in the same college dorm in 1973 at Spring Arbor University. We were shocked to discover that we knew many of the same people from our time at university, but, now in our mid-forties, we did not recognize one another. Not long after we reconnected, I invited him to my house where we dug out the 1973-74 Spring Arbor yearbook from my attic. He immediately recognized me in the photos as the slender kid with shoulder-length, light-brown hair, and I recognized him as well. That marked the beginning of a great relationship. I had the privilege of traveling to Ghana with Dr. Smith in 2006 for his first live ministry training trip in Africa. It was an honor to spend that trip ministering to broken leaders, pastors and counselors there. Ever since I discovered these powerful healing prayer principles, my life has not been the same.

      From the time I began using healing prayer principles, I have been honored to work with the Lord and to witness Him heal many wounded people, including pastors, missionaries and church leaders. Since 1999, I have prayed with individuals through thousands of traumatic memories where lie-based core beliefs have taken root in the prayer recipient’s childhood. Co-laboring with Jesus, time and time again, I have had the privilege of working with the Lord as He has displaced thousands of lie-based beliefs, rooted in the prayer recipient’s wounded memories, with His truth. I have witnessed many people experience complete healing of the memories we visit. What an honor it has been for me to work alongside Jesus and the Holy Spirit! How awesome it is to be able to minister to so many wounded, broken people on their healing journey and to see them released into their true identity and destiny.

      Throughout my journey in this field, I have watched countless people leave victimhood behind to walk in the victory the Lord has made available through His death, shed blood and resurrection. No longer wounded, and understanding the depths of what it means to overcome difficulty, they receive their healing and assume their roles as mighty warriors in His kingdom. This is both the goal and the end result of the Lord’s inner healing. It is awesome to
