By His stripes we are healed

Biological father passed away 12/25th. I looked for him, I was 17. I was rejected. My Biological mom caused extreme harm. I cried alot with this content, the information helped me understand that which I never knew about. Thank you so very much. ❤

This is the first time I've heard this sermon and it just showed up in my feed. After 23 years in the Navy and some very complex PTSD issues growing up, I experienced firsthand what pastor Mark is talking about when he refers to the difference between faith and fear. When you live in fear its panic and chaos, and the laws of cause and effect usually beget more chaos. Like being caught in a riptide. Reacting to the environment. And then getting mad at everyone around you for "not helping" In trauma therapy I learned to turn this around and calm the chaos inside in order to better handle the riptide (thank you art and equine therapy also!!) I can look at my wake and see both the destruction i caused and the sharks that took chuncks out of me but when i stop looking backwards and instead look ahead, using JESUS everything is calm and the riptide isn't so scary anymore.

I agree with April. Well said and heartfelt

Mom was a Jezebel spirit, dad was an Ahab spirit. My older sister was (still is) a sadistic, cruel bully (malignant narcissist). My childhood home was definitely loveless, fear based, & highly hypocritical. A home wrought with bitterness, arguments, violence, trauma & abuse except for the brief 50 minutes every Sunday at Mass. Usually before we even got in the car to leave the arguments & abuse had already resumed.

The truly sad part of my story is that when I was 15 my first “crush” was on Jesus. I poured all my teenage girl heart on Jesus. I literally spent Good Friday fasting, isolating, reading my bible & weeping. My older sister claims she & her family were convicted & converted when they showed up to visit family and I felt called to wait for them in the front yard, playing my flute, reading my bible. When they pulled up I went rushing to them, & couldn’t wait to tell them how much Jesus loves them. He put it in my heart so strongly when I saw them I couldn’t contain it. Convicted because they had been talking Divorce due to worldliness, selfishness & sin on both their parts. My strong affection for them, the Lord's message of a heart bursting with love waiting for them to arrive converted them & saved their marriage. That was the seed that fell and brought forth joy, but lacked roots & died off. Exactly what happened with me. I was mocked, ridiculed, & barely tolerated by my parents, other siblings, friends or even acquaintances and only one friend that loved the Lord. That was, until she betrayed me & tried to steal my boyfriend. I distinctly remember feeling so alone in a dark world I walked over to our RC Church to pray & be in the company of saints to not feel so alone. While I was there I saw an older woman wearing a black, lace head covering, praying her rosary. She was always there, people thought she was crazy, homeless, a hermit or spinster perhaps. It was like I was being shown my future if I continued down this path. It was all I knew, all that was available to me. Almost immediately I thought, “that’s not what I want! I want to marry, have kids, a normal life” and as if with that thought that path darkened & disappeared. The world turned dark, literally, dark clouds formed overhead as I walked back home feeling even more alone & heartbroken. Perhaps that was also my “Rich young heir” moment as well.

Beautiful story of your original heart from the Father!! Don’t grow weary of well doing…

Amazing message ! I need Jesus everyday all day long ! I am healed mind body soul ! All the Glory is HIS !!🙏🙌🙌🙌🙌

Even the late great prophet Kim Clement (who prophesied Trumps presidency,in 2007) circulating on KZread…visually saw the older & younger reconciling & spoke of it before his passing. I’m NOW very much convinced, we’re in the days of Elijah ❤(a glorious season seen, prior to the dreadful end days - God speaks of)….esp since my dad & I just reconciled our relationship, wks ago….And my husband & adult daughter have reconciled their relationship a year ago; both being so lovingly warm & now hang out often. 😂Thank You Lord for these great awesome days. It’s also a time, God will break off dark strongholds in America….like Elijah did ! Yet!!!!!

The Lord spoke to my daughter and I the same morning in 2011 "I'm going to heal your family"! We were each at our own homes. I came down to her place to tell her what the Lord has said. When I came into the kitchen she was in the living room. Before I could say anything she looked at me and said, mom, God told me He's going to heal our family. That morning He spoke. I was stunned. I said, He did.? He told me the same thing. That's why I came down to tell you. Things were not perfect before this. But soon has we spoke out all hell broke loose in the family and it hasn't stopped yet. Just gotten unbelievable the last 12 years. Sometimes I could almost quit. But God picks me up encourageing me to keep trusting and believing. The spirit issues are horrendous to go through. God bless you. May God's total deliverance and healing be upon you and yours in Jeshua's name. Amen.

Thank you for posting! I have been praying for reconciliation with immediate family members for a long time. I, too, had my life seemingly fall apart. Jesus said it wouldn't be east following Him and He wasn't kidding. BUT I am sticking with Jesus one step at a time.

This message was so powerful for me! I had many God moments. Thank you so much for sharing.

" If he doesn't get His way, he punishes!" my mother was, that leave us scars on our self-worth for a long time, some of my siblings continuing hurt their own child these days, I'm so blessed to hearing this today Pastor Driscoll 🙏 ❤️

I did not have a biological father - saw a few photos of him.

I had a "terrible" dad. Though he tries... its mostly selfish trying. Is very prideful and stubborn. I remember just crying and just grieving the relationship that i coulsve had with my dad growing up. Hes not dead just there. I got the father wound and mother wound 😅. My mom passed early at 52 . But i forgave her. Its hard. But i know the Father who adopted me. ❤

AWESOME MESSAGE…I SO needed to hear it….thank you Jesus for wonderful Godly Pastors..Bless Pastor Driscoll!

This is absolutely true. The Holy Spirit drew me to Jesus , but subconsciously I was not aware of the Heavenly Father or could even relate, cuz I didn’t have a good relationship with my earthly father. A Word of Knowledge revealed my heart and the Father wanted me to know Him and His love for me. Wow!😢 Amazing love ❤️🔥❤️ So beautiful!🌹✝️🌹

Can't believe how much this one applies to myself and things I hadn't even realized I'm letting fear take control in.

My (now passed) spouse told me "Instill fear and you own them". I wasnt smart enough to run. I got radically saved, but had much to learn. He destroyed my children's minds. I was trapped because my weak heart turned to heart disease. I came home from the doctor to die. God walked me through learning about supplements and diet in spite of the situation. Im healed from the heart disease. The spouse became so evil I became denied food and told my home that I work for all my life wasnt mine (Yes it is!!) God took him out last year. I have peace and my animals are safe now.....but I cannot say Ive completely conqured all the fear.........

Demon invaded my home when I wanted to be close to God. I lost my mom and sisters my son. I prayed fasted but thing seem to get better than bang it got real bad know my life is less.

Yeah, the entire church moved in to destroy my family, for what? Sure forgiveness is demanded. I forgive my "church" for destroying my family. Please God give me more of that. Some wounds will never heal. You can break a heart, and put it together again, but it will never be complete again. Please God give me more of that or, just crucify me the way you were. Would be better at this point.

It is very difficult to forgive people we are taught to trust, difficult but not impossible in the Lord. Forgiveness is a choice, step out and expect God’s grace to be sufficient. We can swap war stories, mine is a doozie. I need to be forgiven, so i need to forgive. Let the Lord deal with those who have wounded you. Your heart can be healed in Jesus name!

It can be difficult when we look to a church or patriarchy to serve as a father figure bc there are too many moving parts, i.e. members, non-member neighbors, community leaders, media, etc. that can muddy the waters, leaving no one accountable for the collateral damage done to those in vulnerable positions. My heart goes out to you and your family. PLEASE reach out to someone who can help you heal from this - yes - TRAUMA to your psyches. Only THEN can you even consider approaching forgiveness beyond the surface level of duty. And forgiveness will begin with forgiving yourself for needing such approbation in the first place, and forgiving those who came before you, who set you up for that neediness. Know that in the end it will have served as a blessing if the process broke your illusions, having perhaps placed man on the pedestal only God can occupy. With love & understanding from one who’s BEEN there!

You are worthy of the space you occupy and we need you. My God puts me in the moment and I no longer have to live in the memories of past abuse which was horrendous. I’m an adult who is now able to take care of that young girl then woman who has and was abused by toooooo many “men “. So many bad choices as the result of the childhood trauma. If I could see you in real time, you would know just how valuable you are ! You’re on the right path. Live one breath at a time 🙏🙏🙏

I think we can be loving slaves (because is biblical term being slaves of Christ, but first he is our father) of God serving him, and do what he ask us to do and serving his body in love,etc, but first he is our father

You pray for intercession, keep praying she sees him for who he really is. Then you take your daughter and go to dinner and gently yet with wisdom and strong guidance tell her “He’s not the one” Trust you raised her well enough to receive this. Then tell her about the Man you hope she finds and start describing yourself after you came to Christ. Until she find “the one” never stop praying for her and work on being that Man you described

God is both Father and Master and we are both adopted sons and daughters and slaves. Doulos is a Greek word in the Bible that has only one true historical option for accurate translation into English, which is slave. It literally means to be owned by someone for a lifetime. This word is found at least 127 times in 119 verses in the New Testament scriptures. The KJV uses slave 0, the LSB uses it 77 times. Anytime you see bondservant or servant, use slave. We were once slaves to sin and were bought at the price of His blood and redeemed and are now slaves of Christ. Galatians 1:10 LSB - For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a slave of Christ. Titus 1:1 LSB - Paul, a slave of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, for the faith of God’s elect and the full knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness, James 1:1 LSB - James, a slave of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes who are in the Dispersion: Greetings. 2 Peter 1:1 LSB - Simeon Peter, a slave and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have received the same kind of faith as ours, by the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ: Jude 1:1 LSB - Jude, a slave of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, To those who are the called, beloved in God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ:
