Physical, Sexual, and Emotional Abuse For Women

The Problem

Recovery is a two-fold process in this case. The first step is healing from the traumas done to us in our past, and the second step is healing from the influence these past experiences continue to have in our present lives.

(Most) Survivors of Physical / Sexual / Emotional Abuse…

  • Are hesitant to identify themselves as victims of abuse.
  • Feel isolated, depressed, worthless, and helpless to change.
  • Are struggling with feelings about God in relation to their life experiences of abuse.
  • Condemn themselves, denying the past abuse affects their present circumstances.
  • Feel out of control and defeated in areas of compulsive behavior.
  • Feel angry, bitter, and rebellious; have trouble with authority figures.
  • Feel a lack of self-worth.
  • Are preoccupied with thoughts of what it means to have a “normal” relationship with others: mates, friends, family.
  • Question their own sexual identity and may experience confusion regarding their own sexuality.
  • Desire to regain their sexuality and feel safe in intimate relationships.
  • Question self-reality: “Who am I?”
  • Question whether life has a purpose.
  • Feel “at home” in crisis situations.
  • Struggle with perfectionism or “all or nothing thinking.”
  • Desire to have victory through Christ over the life experience of abuse.

The Solution

Survivors of Physical / Sexual / Emotional Abuse can experience recovery when…

  • We recognize that we are powerless to heal the damaged emotions resulting from our abuse. We look to God for the power to make us whole.
  • We admit that God’s plan for our lives includes victory over the experience of abuse.
  • We understand the people who abused us are responsible for the abusive acts committed against us. We will not accept the guilt and shame resulting from those abusive acts.
  • We look to God and His Word to find our identity as worthwhile and loved human beings.
  • We are honestly sharing our feelings with God and at least one other person to help us identify the areas that need cleansing and healing.
  • We accept the responsibility for our responses to abuse.
  • We are willing to accept God’s help in the decision and the process of forgiving ourselves and those who have perpetrated against us.
  • We are willing to mature in our relationships with God and others.
  • We are willing to be used by God as an instrument of healing and restoration in the lives of others.

* The Solution is partially based on the book Helping the Victims of Sexual Abuse by Lynn Heitritter and Jeanette Vought.

We admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. James 5:16a NIV

Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord. Lamentations 3:40 NIV

We have to acknowledge our baggage in order to let it go. Otherwise, we'll keep lugging around burdens God never intended us to carry.

The Lord...visits the iniquity of the fathers on the children and the children’s children, to the third and the fourth generation. Exodus 34:7

But Jesus Christ has the power to break EVERY chain, including the cycle of generational sin!!

Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God - this is your spiritual act of worship. Romans 12:1 NIV

For it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose. Philippians 2:13 NIV

When we believe God can fix what we have been unable to, we find hope like never before.
