“The Chain Breaker” by Neville Buchanan


She could not imagine living another day. Life had lost its meaning. Her work was rewarding, but her heart had been ripped out. He had gotten caught up in something he just could not shake. It had taken him down a path he could not return from. Life no longer held any excitement. He was numb to everything.

How can anyone help? Pills no longer work, the therapist has given up, and my friends are starting to avoid me. So, what is left?

Psalm 107:13–16 (ESV) — 13 Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress. 14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and burst their bonds apart. 15 Let them thank the LORD for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of man! 16 For he shatters the doors of bronze and cuts in two the bars of iron.

The Psalmist says if we would cry to the Lord, he will deliver us from our dark world.

Friend, DO YOU WANT TO LIVE AGAIN? Are you ready to be free from that which chains you to the grave or to the pit of despair? If yes, then cry out to God – only He can break those chains.

Father, we thank you that you are a chain breaker. Lord, I want to live again. I want my joy and peace to return. PLEASE, FATHER, BREAK MY CHAINS. In Jesus Name, Amen.
