Fixing Broken Communities Healing the Orphan Mentality

Spiritual Orphans Lamentations 5 Remember, Lord, what has happened to us; look, and see our disgrace. Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers, our homes to foreigners. We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are widows. We must buy the water we drink; our wood can be had only at a price.

Spiritual Orphans Lamentations 5 Our necks are under persecution: we work and have no rest. We submitted to Egypt and Assyria to get enough food to survive. Our ancestors sinned and are no more, and we bear their punishment. Slaves rule over us, and there is no one to free us from their hands.

Spiritual Orphans Lamentations 5 We get our bread at the risk of our lives because of the sword in the desert. Our skin is hot as an oven, feverish from hunger. Young men toil at the millstones; boys stagger under loads of wood. Joy is gone from our hearts; our dancing has turned to mourning.

Spiritual Orphans Lamentations 5 Why do you always forget us? Why do you forsake us so long? You have utterly rejected us and are angry with us beyond measure.

Spiritual Orphans Lamentations 5:22 You have utterly rejected us and are angry with us beyond measure.

God doesn't notice your suffering. He doesn't hear your prayers. You have no home or blessing. You can't depend on God. You need to look out for yourself. Everything comes at a cost. You are a slave that gets no rest. You have to make deals to survive. You have to fight for what you need. There isn't enough to go around. There's no reason to be happy. You have been abandoned by God. God is angry with you. Orphan Summary

Spiritual Comforter John 14:18 I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.

God does notice your suffering. He always hears your prayers. You have a home and blessing with God. You can depend on God. God will always look out for you. Your work was meant to be a blessing. God desires to give you peace and rest. You don't have to fight for what you need. There is more than enough to go around. There's tonnes of reasons to be happy. You haven't been abandoned by God. God loves you and wants to know you more. The Truth

Spiritual Adoption Romans 8:15 For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but you have received the Spirit of adoption, by which we cry, "Abba," Father.

Renewing our Mind 1. Be aware when you're slipping into an orphan mentality. 2. Speak God's truth into the situation. 3. Experience God in your daily prayer time. Hear his voice.
