Who was Jeremiah?

Jeremiah was a prophet called to speak God’s truth to Judah. At the time this passage was written, Israel and Judah were in destitution and headed for destruction. As a result, God stepped in and promised that He would restore health to his people. He assured them that they would not only gain freedom from bondage but that they would also regain their fortunes and possess the land He gave to them. Additionally, while the surrounding verses state that the sins and guilt of His people were numerous, God declares that He will still restore their health and wellbeing as He guides them into redemption.

Jeremiah 30:17 meaning

But what does Jeremiah 30:17 mean for us today? When we search for healing Scriptures in the Bible it can be tempting to forget that God’s people went through many of the same difficulties that we face today. Distressing reports, a technologically-distracted society, a broken spirit, and a hurting body can nag at the edges of our hearts. It is easy to be pulled away from the truth that exists in this verse. CHM member Amanda Burton discovered that even when we feel broken, God’s incredible healing perseveres, as she found out when He ensured the safe delivery of her daughter.

God restores health

The first part of Jeremiah 30:17 states that God uses restoration to bring back health. He is not only able to restore us, but He makes a strong affirmative statement that he is willing to do so. The Hebrew word for restore is arukah, which means “to recover, to heal, and to restore to health.” The Bible demonstrates that God’s restorative power is different from our natural human concept of how to heal wounds or illnesses. When God restores an aspect of our lives, it is better than it was before. For example, when we confess Christ as our savior from sin, He not only restores us by entering into a relationship with us, but He also cleanses us and makes us a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17). As believers who are cleansed by Christ’s sacrifice on the cross, we can come to God with our prayers for healing and recovery knowing that God’s grace will be there to meet us in our sickness.

Why do couples stop loving each other?

Communication issues and unrealistic expectations are two of the main reasons people find themselves falling out of love. But there are things that can be done to stop the fall. Relationships are hard work; they should be viewed as investments, particularly if there is a marriage.

everydayhealth.com - Understanding Why Women Fall Out of Love | Everyday Health

It may be more difficult for women to come to terms with, or even admit, that they are having problems maintaining the feelings of love for their spouses. They have to make a decision to dissolve or save the marriage while battling conflicting emotions. Men seem to be getting all the attention when it comes to relationship muck-ups and falling out of love. Bestselling book, Why Men Fall out of Love (2005), by Michael French, was a big hit with readers, but no such book has been written about women. Women, meanwhile, often think they are the “fixers” of the relationship, and tend to seek out information to remedy the problem. They may perceive men to be indifferent and construe their lack of communication as cruel. As the women feel more neglected, the slow process of falling out of love begins. Neglect isn’t as concrete as infidelity or physical abuse, so it is a tougher area to discuss directly. See your partner for who he is. If he treats you poorly now, he will later. If he has a bad habit of putting you down in front of his friends, see it as a red flag. These actions may not make you feel like falling out of love now, but soon enough they will wear on you.
