Jesus heals the brokenhearted by revealing their sin and providing redemption through his sacrifice.
The concept of Jesus healing the brokenhearted is deeply rooted in the recognition of spiritual poverty and the realization of one's sins. In Isaiah 53:5, we read, 'By his stripes we are healed,' which points to the redemptive work of Christ on the cross. Through his suffering, Jesus provides comfort to those whose hearts are crushed by their awareness of sin and guilt. He reveals the truth that while we are condemned by our sinful nature, he has paid the price, offering hope and peace. Jesus makes us realize that in him, even the most brokenhearted can find forgiveness, healing, and a new identity, leading to spiritual wholeness.
