  1. Philip Huan (D.Min) FREEDOM FROM THE PAST—TOUCHING PAINFUL EMOTIONS

  2. Freedom from the Past—Touching Painful Emotions ''If you listen carefully to the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep all his decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the LORD [Jehovah Rapha], who heals you." (Exodus 15:26, The Bible)

  3. Freedom from the Past—Touching Painful Emotions Praise the LORD. How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and fitting to praise him! The LORD builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the exiles of Israel. He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. (Psalms 147:1-3)

  4. Freedom from the Past—Touching Painful Emotions • 1. ACKNOWLEDGE OUR HURTS OR MISTAKES. • Be honest with YOURSELF & with GOD. • For I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me. Against you [O Lord], you only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight, so that you are proved right when you speak and justified when you judge. Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me. Surely you desire truth in the inner parts; you teach me wisdom in the inmost place. (Psalms 51:1-6, The Bible)

  5. Freedom from the Past—Touching Painful Emotions 1. ACKNOWLEDGE OUR HURTS OR MISTAKES. ii. Be honest with A CONFIDANT Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. (James 5:16a)

  6. Freedom from the Past—Touching Painful Emotions 2. EXPRESS OUR FEELINGS TO GOD I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart; for whether I am in chains or defending and confirming the gospel, all of you share in God's grace with me. God can testify how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus. (Philippians 1:3-8)

  7. Freedom from the Past—Touching Painful Emotions 2. EXPRESS OUR FEELINGS TO GOD Think: What is the dominant emotion you feel most often?

  8. Freedom from the Past—Touching Painful Emotions 2. EXPRESS OUR FEELINGS TO GOD O LORD, you deceived me, and I was deceived; you overpowered me and prevailed. I am ridiculed all day long; everyone mocks me. Whenever I speak, I cry out proclaiming violence and destruction. So the word of the LORD has brought me insult and reproach all day long. But if I say, ''I will not mention him or speak any more in his name," his word is in my heart like a fire, a fire shut up in my bones. I am weary of holding it in; indeed, I cannot. (Jeremiah 20:7-9)

  10. Freedom from the Past—Touching Painful Emotions 3. RELEASE THOSE WHO HURT US Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. (Colossians 3:13, The Bible)

  11. Freedom from the Past—Touching Painful Emotions 3. RELEASE THOSE WHO HURT US i. FORGIVENESS is part of God's purposes. ii. You cannot heal if you HARBOR bitterness & un-forgiveness. Make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord. See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many. (Hebrews 12:14-15, The Bible)

  12. Freedom from the Past—Touching Painful Emotions 3. RELEASE THOSE WHO HURT US iii. You begin healing when you let God SETTLE YOUR SCORES. For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living. You, then, why do you judge your brother? Or why do you look down on your brother? For we will all stand before God's judgment seat. It is written: "'As surely as I live,' says the Lord, 'every knee will bow before me; every tongue will confess to God.'" So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God. Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother's way. (Romans 14:9-13, The Bible)

  13. Freedom from the Past—Touching Painful Emotions 3. RELEASE THOSE WHO HURT US iii. You begin healing when you let God SETTLE YOUR SCORES. iv. Do not be an AGENT OF HURT. Rather, TRUST GOD & do the RIGHT THING.
