This morning, after asking God to use me as his vessel to speak to you, I randomly opened my Bible and found a word I had written several months ago in bold letters. It said REPAIR.

Repair is needed in your life, isn’t it? Something has gotten broken. Something isn’t working. Something is hurting.

Your great big God knew there would come a time when you would come to him and ask him to fix this. The amazing news is, God knows exactly how to fix this. He has a plan for repair. But, his repair will require your participation.

Write down the word REPAIR. By definition it means to fix a thing suffering from damage or a fault. Is that you? Your relationship? Your situation? There’s been damage. There’s a fault. Repair is desperately needed.

Now, looking at this word repair, RE is the prefix. It means “again”. Pair is a set of two things together. Repair is pair again. Bring back together again what has been separated.

Think of a bluetooth device. If you’re connecting your phone to a wireless speaker, you must pair them. Connect them. If they lose connection, you must re-pair them.

REPAIR.

Now back to that area of your life that desperately needs repair. That thing that got broken. That thing that isn’t working. That thing that is hurting. Honey, you’ve lost connection. It’s time to be re-paired.

God can fix this. He is your source for healing. He is your source for restoration. He is your provider and your way maker. A disconnect from him creates disruption and destruction in your life. It’s time to connect to the source again.

On a bluetooth device, there’s typically a little blue light that flashes when it’s available for pairing. The very first thing that will choose to pair with it will be connected. The light flashes as it searches for connection. Let me tell you something, God’s blue light is flashing. He’s available for pairing. Jesus made that connection possible and it’s an open line for you. You simply must choose to connect.

Now, think about on your phone settings, you have to choose your connection. There’s a list of all bluetooth devices near you, and you select which one to pair with.

Girl, who are you going to pair with? Are you pairing up with the noise of the world, the distraction of social media, the drama or trauma of your past? Or will you choose God?

You were made for a connection with your Creator. You’re a pair. He created you with a God shaped hole within which only he can fill. That’s why you feel an emptiness within when you busy yourself with all these other things. That’s why nothing works when you keep trying to do it on your own. It’s simply not your design.

Re-pair with God. Connect to him again. He’s available, but you have to choose him as your source. This is true repair for your life. Re-pair with God. Come back into connection.

James 4:8, “Come close to God, and God will come close to you.” I like to say it like this, if you take one step towards God, he will take a thousand towards you. He will repair this when you choose to re-pair with him.

The connection is available. Choose it.

Jesus said in John 15:5, “Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing.” Verse 7, “If you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted.”

This is the repair you seek. This is the healing. This is the restoration. This is the fixing of what has been broken and not working.

You’ve been trying to do this all on your own, but you were created for a pairing with your Creator. When paired, life flows. When disconnected, it simply doesn’t work.

What causes the disconnect from God? Plain and simple, sin. Isaiah 59:, “Your iniquities have separated you from your God and your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.” And honey, it’s not just you. Romans 3:23 says, ” For ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” We’ve all failed. We’ve all sinned. We’ve all created a disconnect.

What sin has separated you from God and needs repair? For many of us it’s the sin of being too busy for God. Really is that a sin? Yes – it’s an idol. Anything that takes God’s place in our lives is an idol. We’ve worshiped entertainment and influencers and left a disconnect with our God.

But Jesus has made the re-pair possible. Acts 3:19, “Repent then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out.”

What isn’t working in your life? Has it been disconnected from God? It’s time to re-pair with God.

This is true repair.

The blue light is flashing. Will you connect?
