Redefining Relationships series: HEALING THE WOUNDED

An Introduction

By Queen Olashore

Every life carries a story.

Every story carries a wound.

Sometimes the wound is loud and obvious;

sometimes it is silent, buried beneath layers of strength, duty, and survival.

People smile, serve, lead, give, and function;yet behind the smiles may lie bruises that words never fully capture.Wounds of betrayal.Wounds of family jealousy.Wounds of comparison.Wounds of abandonment.

Wounds from relationships that broke the heart.Wounds from friendships that fractured without warning.Wounds from expectations that were never met.

These wounds are not physical,

yet they reshape how people love, trust, believe, relate, and see themselves.

A wounded heart becomes guarded.

A wounded heart becomes fearful.

A wounded heart misinterprets love, struggles with peace, and becomes allergic to vulnerability.

But there is hope.“There is a Balm in Gilead” a divine healing that goes deeper than human comfort, deeper than counselling, deeper than time,deeper than the mind’s ability to forget.God still heals.He heals the hidden places.He restores the broken pieces.He touches the memories that still sting.He revives the heart that has shut down from too many disappointments.

Healing the Wounded is a journey,a gentle but powerful pathway into emotional freedom, spiritual clarity, and inner restoration.

This introduction begins with the truth:

You cannot love well when you are bleeding within.

You cannot trust deeply when your heart is trembling.

Where healing is absent, fear becomes the interpreter of every relationship.

But when the wounded heart encounters God’s restoring power,it becomes whole again, strong again, open again and capable of healthy, joyful, destiny-driven relationships. This is where healing begins.This is where wholeness starts.

This is the invitation:

Come as you are and let the Healer touch the places you stopped talking about.

LOVE IS THE ANSWER

Introduction

Every relationship; marriage, friendship, ministry partnership, or family bond, will face moments of tension, misunderstanding, or even betrayal. It is not a sign of failure; it is the reality of human frailty. But in the midst of the emotional noise, God continually points us back to one foundational principle:

Love: which is the answer.

Not emotional love.

Not reactive love.

Not conditional love.

But Agape, the God-kind of love that heals, restores, disarms, and elevates.

Important fact about Love:

1. Love Is Not Weakness but Warfare:

Many people think loving those who hurt you is a sign of weakness. But spiritually, it is the opposite. Love is the highest realm of spiritual intelligence. It breaks cycles, dismantles accusations, and removes the foothold of darkness. 1 John4:18.

When Jesus said:

“Bless those who curse you…”

He was not asking for passivity.

He was showing us the most powerful way to win battles that cannot be fought physically.

Responding with love breaks demonic momentum.

2. Bless Them Even While They Curse You

This is not natural.This is supernatural.

To bless is to declare something higher than the offence. Blessing them does not excuse their action.It protects your heart.It keeps your spirit free from bitterness.

Because bitterness blinds you from your own destiny.

3. Give Even When They Don’t Deserve It

Agape love sees beyond behavior.

It sees potential.

It sees destiny.

This is why Jesus fed Judas…

washed Judas’ feet…

loved Judas…

even though He knew betrayal was coming.

Why?

Because love is your identity, not their behavior.

4. Keep Your Hands Open, Your Heart Clean.

When people hurt us, the flesh wants to shut down emotionally.

But closed hearts attract closed heavens. ( offence and bitterness shuts the heavens).

A clean heart keeps your prayers powerful,

your discernment sharp,and your spirit sensitive to God.

An open hand means:

I refuse to let what you did turn me into what I am not.”

5. The 7-Time Confession

Your heart follows your confession.

Say it intentionally and prophetically:

“I love (—name—).

I believe the best of (him/her).”

Say it seven times.

Not because you feel it, but because you are training your spirit to enter the God-kind of love.

These confessions shift atmospheres.

6. Keep Praise Alive

Praise protects emotional balance.

Praise guards your mind.

Praise sweeps away the fog of offence.

Where praise is alive, bitterness cannot survive.

7. Your Accusers Will Return: The Joseph Principle

The same people who once misunderstood you, will one day recognize your relevance.

Joseph did not get elevated because his brothers accepted him.

He became relevant because God had need of him in the future.

Do not let today’s treatment determine your identity. Your future is larger than your pain. Hallelujah

8. Enjoy the Journey , Focus on those Who Bring Joy

Not everyone is meant to walk closely with you.

Some bring heaviness, suspicion, accusation, comparison, or emotional turbulence.

Focus on those who bring:

– Peace

– Light

– Joy

– Honour

– Stability

Let love lead you, but let wisdom guide the closeness.

9. Overcome Your Fears Keep Seeing the Future

Fear destroys connection.Love nurtures it.

Keep your eyes on the future God showed you. No temporary season should be allowed to limit your permanent destiny.

Conclusion

Love is the answer, not because situations deserve love,but because you are a carrier of God’s nature.

To Do:

Respond from strength.

Forgive quickly.

Keep moving.

Take territories.

This is the first foundation of kingdom relationships.
