Those who sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, bound in affliction and irons because they rebelled against the words of God, and despised the counsel of the Most High, therefore He brought down their heart with labor. They fell down, and there was none to help. Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble, and He saved them out of their distresses. He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death and broke their chains in pieces. Psalm 107:10-13
For years I saw the broken, addicted, bruised, beaten, demon-possessed, and downtrodden come to our ministry and saw God break their chains and set them free! Because our ministry was to women their pain and suffering was deeper and much harder to heal their wounded hearts than men.
Like little ewe lambs, Jesus took them in His arms and healed their broken hearts, and delivered them from the darkness of their past. I am reminded of the time Jesus cast out seven demons from Mary Magdalene setting her free and transforming her into a mighty woman of God, even sending her with the first apostolic message to His disciples that He had risen from the dead!
Are you bound by a stronghold of Satan, struggling to survive the onslaught of his attacks? If so, there is hope if you will confess your sins and repent and turn away from whatever darkness has held you God will break the chains that bind you and you will be free!
They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wit's end. Then they cry out to the Lord in their trouble, and He brings them out of their distresses. He calms the storm so that the waves are still. Then they are glad because they are quiet; so, He guides them to their desired haven. Psalm 107:28-30
