The human being can experience five different “soul blisters”. Each one carries its own fear and survival reactions to survive the pain. We subconsciously tend to conceal our wounds with survival behaviours.
Rejection
Fear: Panic
Profile: The flyer
Need: Belonging- Acceptation
Effects: We hold our feelings inside. We fear solitude; we tend towards anxiety, anguish and panic. We become people-pleasers and peacemakers to avoid rejection. We may even begin to reject ourselves.
Abandonment
Fear: Solitude
Profile: The dependent, or co-dependent
Need: Adoption- Belonging- Attention
Effects: Abandonment causes us to require attention, to feel victimized, lonely and sad. We rely on others for our happiness. We become dependent and we dramatize situations. We are quick to try and reconcile differences and we fear being assertive. We may even abandon ourselves.
Humiliation
Fear: Freedom
Profile: The self-destroyer
Need: Freedom – Approbation – Being Recognized
Effects: We don’t listen to our own needs. We try to save the world, and in the process, we exhaust, overwhelm and neglect ourselves. We lack self-respect, and we ignore our intuitions and preferences.
Betrayal
Fear: “Dropping the ball”
Profile: The Controller
Need: Confidence- Faithfulness
Effects: We have difficulty delegating. We become manipulative. We have high expectations, and we impose our own points of view. We develop a sense of superiority. We lack tact and are impatient. We come off as authoritarian. Our moods shift dramatically and often. We worry too much about what people think, and in our efforts to avoid further betrayal, we tend to betray ourselves.
Injustice
Fear: Coldness
Profile: The Rigid
Need: Freedom
Effects: We separate ourselves from our emotions. We become perfectionistic, cold and envious. We refuse help, fearing that someone else cannot do it as well as we can. We hide our emotions, we don’t respect our limits, we have a deep-seated need to be right. We justify our own actions, and we are hard on ourselves and others. Our ego suffocates our joy.
Through Jesus’ resurrection, He gave us a precious gift.
When we commune our soul with His living soul, He heals and replaces our soul wounds with the following:
Rejection is healed and replaced with His Acceptance
Abandonment is healed and replaced with His Adoption
Betrayal is healed and replaced with His Faithfulness
Injustice is healed and replaced with His Justice
Take my yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly (humble) in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light. Matthew 11:29
How do we apply this communion?
Every time we get hurt in our soul, we need to voice it out loud (if not possible, just say it inside yourself) “I feel — when this person says or does this. I surrender to you Jesus this wound, I ask you to heal it and replace it with your promises. Please replace my rejection for Your Acceptance etc. Thank You for Your Acceptance, I receive it.”
This was shown to me on March 2, 2019. I have applied it many times and now I can glorify Jesus’ power of healing and I can better place myself beyond circumstances. No wonder I love you, Jesus! Thank you for having shown me this, and allowing me to share it with those who, like me, are seeking Your healing. Amen.
