Purity culture left many believers with wounds—shame, fear, and distorted views of God’s love and grace. If you’ve ever struggled with feelings of worthlessness, regret, or fear because of your past or your body, this prayer is for you. In this gentle, Scripture-based devotional, we bring our hearts before the Lord and ask for healing—body, soul, and spirit. God's grace is bigger than our stories, and His love does not hinge on our perfection. You are not too far gone. You are not damaged goods. You are beloved. 📖 "Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." — Romans 8:1 📖 "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." — Psalm 147:3 🙏 Prayer: *Father God, We come to You on behalf of those who carry the weight of shame, confusion, and spiritual hurt from purity culture. For the hearts that feel tarnished, rejected, or unloved—remind them of Your truth: that You see them, know them, and deeply love them. You are not ashamed of them. You are not disappointed. Heal what was twisted. Restore what was lost. Show each person that their value isn’t based on past choices but on the finished work of Jesus Christ. Remind them that purity is not about perfection, but about wholeness in You. Help us walk in grace, extend compassion to ourselves and others, and rewrite the narrative with Your truth. In Jesus’ name, Amen.* #PurityCultureHealing #YourDailyPrayer #GodsGrace #HealingPrayer #ChristianEncouragement #FaithAfterHurt #RestorationInChrist #NoCondemnation #DailyDevotional #PrayerForHealing
