Healing Broken Spirits

“Spare body parts do exist. In Heaven, there is no lack of anything required to perform His Word. If you are willing to serve Him what you need is in abundant supply. You have to access the storehouses in the Kingdom of Heaven and can appropriately freely exactly what is required, at any given time. There are body parts in the Kingdom of Heaven for anyone who accesses them by faith. If this seems abnormal to you, it’s because your mind has not yet been transformed to agree with Heaven… Miracles can happen right now.”

My son, pay attention to what I say; listen closely to my words. Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart; for they are life to those who find them and health to a man's whole body.

(Proverbs 4:20-22)

Worship the LORD your God, and his blessing will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you…

(Exodus 23:25)

Frank Hanks recently shared in the Full Gospel Businessman (FGB) of Subang Jaya USJ 1 Chapter at the Summit Complex on Nov 6. The itinerant preacher and healing evangelist developed a ministry named Empty Hospitals International. “I have a vision to activate the Body of Christ and to impart gifts of the Holy Spirit to the body of Christ, and have them empty hospitals around the world,” shared Frank. He has been to many places around the world but this would be his first time into Asia and specifically Malaysia.

There he spoke about his experiences and the miracles of healing. “I believe that healing should encompass the whole man, spirit, soul, and body. Not just the physical body but our soul. He redeems and restores our soul. God really cares about the broken in heart,” he said. It’s true that He cares about the things that have happened in your life. Many people go through setbacks and sometimes, even from a very young age. “Maybe you’ve gone through some abuse as a child or perhaps, people spoke unkindly to you and just persistently picked on you. This creates trauma in your hearts,” he said. Only God can clean out those cobwebs of your past and heal your broken heart.

The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound

(Isaiah 61:1)

Besides that, the Bible also talks about healing broken spirits. In this case, many people have experienced sorrow in different stages, some worse than others and this makes the heart sick. The Bible tells us that when we experience sorrow, the spirit is broken. “There’s parts of us in the inner most parts of our belly that can be wounded as well. Scientifically, this is how this works, the elementary canal which is the intestines (guts) starts at the esophagus and runs through nine meters of intestines before it goes out the back side. All of that canal is intertwined with a very sophisticated nervous system that not only helps process things, it also stores memory and is able to make decisions. How many of you have heard someone say 'I just went with my gut'?” he shared.

Many times, this has been said by people that they just went with their gut although everything else indicates that they should make another decision. It’s a little harder to see when someone is emotionally handicapped. They may look totally healthy on the outside but inside, they have a ceiling over their life; they can’t see very far off and they believe that they are stuck and they will always be stuck in life. People like that often ask, “What is wrong with me?” A wounded spirit causes people to be unhealthy. An interesting fact is that 90% of the serotonin (a hormone that produces feelings of well-being and happiness) found in your body is produced within the gut. “When your spirit is broken and you’re wounded on the inside, then your serotonin production is impeded, so you have greater problems with depression and digestion,” Frank shared. People have said that they literally feel sick in the stomach when they’ve had a bad experience and that’s what the Bible is talking about.

Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.

(Proverbs 13:12)

The words of a gossip are like choice morsels; they go down to the inmost parts.

(Proverbs 26:22)

He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

(John 7:38)

Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed

(Isaiah 53:4-5).

God taught Frank some interesting things about healing those parts in people so that they can move forward in life. “We can remove those ceilings that have been over your life since maybe a little child,” he said. When a person is healed in such ways, they report advancement in life, restoration of healings of well-being. “Some of them haven’t known joy for years and all of a sudden, they’re back and they are back better than before. They are restored happy and full of life. This is what we do, we go into Churches and teach this and we get everybody healed,” said Frank.

Jesus had been anointed by God and in reality we all have been anointed by the same spirit of God. What God has called us to do, which is to heal the sick and brokenhearted is as relevant today as it was in the days of Jesus Christ. Frank then shared many great testimonies of healing those who were sick. With the power of Jesus and the anointing through him, he has rebuked sicknesses, mended the brokenhearted, seen the lame walk, and more. Repent of your unbelief and believe in the Gospel and in Jesus.

How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him. (Acts 10:38)

Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness.

(Matthew 9:35)

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.

(James 5:16)
