On the occasion of International Women’s Day which falls on March 8 each year, we offer women twelve Bible passages to receive grace, healing, and strength from the Lord Christ.
On the life journey full of uncertainties, we may encounter difficulties — emotionally, physically, psychologically, or mentally — losing faith.
We may think that we will never overcome certain challenges or endure unbearable pain. Thankfully, the Bible announces a reality through many healing verses: “You will never feel lonely. You have the power to do hard things as God is always there to help you.”
Bible passages can inspire us to receive soul healing by growing. Even in hard times, every day is new. Let’s give ourselves more time, as there is no deadline. There are better days ahead no matter what you feel or experience.
Below are twelve Bible passages to offer hope to women in different circumstances.
Isaiah 57:18-19
I have seen their ways, but I will heal them;
I will guide them and restore comfort to Israel’s mourners,
creating praise on their lips.
Peace, peace, to those far and near,”
says the Lord. “And I will heal them.”
Isaiah 41:10 So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Revelation 21:4 “‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
John 14:7 “If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”
Psalm 6:8-10
Away from me, all you who do evil,
for the Lord has heard my weeping.
The Lord has heard my cry for mercy;
the Lord accepts my prayer.
All my enemies will be overwhelmed with shame and anguish;
they will turn back and suddenly be put to shame.
Matthew 9:20-22 Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak. She said to herself, “If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed.”
Jesus turned and saw her. “Take heart, daughter,” he said, “your faith has healed you.” And the woman was healed at that moment.
Jeremiah 8:14-17
Why are we sitting here?
Gather together!
Let us flee to the fortified cities
and perish there!
For the Lord our God has doomed us to perish
and given us poisoned water to drink,
because we have sinned against him.
We hoped for peace
but no good has come,
for a time of healing
but there is only terror.
The snorting of the enemy’s horses
is heard from Dan;
at the neighing of their stallions
the whole land trembles.
They have come to devour
the land and everything in it,
the city and all who live there.
“See, I will send venomous snakes among you,
vipers that cannot be charmed,
and they will bite you,”
declares the Lord.
Jeremiah 17:14
Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed;
save me and I will be saved,
for you are the one I praise.
Malachi 4:1-2 “Surely the day is coming; it will burn like a furnace. All the arrogant and every evildoer will be stubble, and the day that is coming will set them on fire,” says the Lord Almighty. “Not a root or a branch will be left to them. But for you who revere my name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its rays. And you will go out and frolic like well-fed calves.”
Isaiah 53:4-6
Surely he took up our pain
and bore our suffering,
yet we considered him punished by God,
stricken by him, and afflicted.
But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
and by his wounds we are healed.
We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
each of us has turned to our own way;
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
Psalm 73:25-26
Whom have I in heaven but you?
And earth has nothing I desire besides you.
My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart
and my portion forever.
3 John 1:2 Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.

在充满不确定性人生的路途上，当你经历一段困难的时期——无论是在情绪上的、身体上的、心理上的还是精神上的——你会很容易失去信心。
生活中的一些挑战可能会让你觉得你可能无法克服它们，或者经历一些难以承受的痛苦。
值得庆幸的是，圣经中有很多关于治愈心灵的经文，它们在宣告着一个事实：“你永远不会孤单，你有能力去做艰难的事情，上帝总是在那里帮助你。”
圣经的经文可以激励你，并且以一种帮助你成长的方式来接受心灵的治愈，即使是在艰难的时候，每一天都是新的一天，没有最后期限，只要给自己一点时间，不管你在感受什么或经历什么，更美好的日子就在前面。
《圣经》中那些治愈心灵的经文就是证据。
小编为大家整理了十二处圣经经文，盼望给生活在不同处境下的女性朋友们带来主基督的恩典、医治与力量。

我必坚固你，帮助你，用我公义的右手扶持你。
以赛亚书41:10
三，关键词：擦去
神要擦去他们一切的眼泪；不再有死亡，也不再有悲哀、哭号、痛苦，因为先前的事都过去了。”
启示录21：4
四，关键词：平安
我留下平安给你们，我把我的平安赐给你们。
我所赐给你们的，不像世人所赐的。
你们心里不要忧愁，也不要胆怯。
约翰福音14：7
五、关键词：哀哭、恳求

我所有的仇敌都必羞愧，大大惊惶；转眼之间，他们要羞愧撤退。
诗篇6：8-10
六，关键词：信心、痊愈
这时，有一个女人，患了经血不止的病有十二年，来到耶稣背后，摸他的衣裳繸子；因为她心里说：“我只要摸他的衣裳，就会痊愈。”
耶稣转过来，看见她，就说：“女儿，放心！
你的信救了你。”
从那时起，这女人就痊愈了。
马太9：20-22
七，关键词：代替、担当
耶稣到了彼得家里，见彼得的岳母正发烧躺着。
15耶稣一摸她的手，烧就退了，于是她起来服事耶稣。
傍晚的时候，有人带着许多被鬼附的来到耶稣跟前，他只用一句话就把邪灵都赶出去，并且治好了一切有病的人。
这是要应验以赛亚先知所说的话：“他代替了我们的软弱，担当了我们的疾病。

你们必出来跳跃如圈里的牛犊。
玛拉基书4：1-2
十，关键词：惩罚、平安、鞭伤、医治
他诚然担当我们的忧患，背负我们的痛苦；我们却以为他受责罚，是被神击打苦待。
他为我们的过犯受害，为我们的罪孽被压伤。
因他受的惩罚，我们得平安；因他受的鞭伤，我们得医治。
我们都如羊走迷，各人偏行己路；耶和华使我们众人的罪孽都归在他身上。
以赛亚书53：4-6
十一，关键词：爱慕、力量、福分
除你以外，在天上我有谁呢？
除你以外，在地上我也没有所爱慕的。
我的肉体和我的心肠衰残；但神是我心里的力量，又是我的福分，直到永远。
诗篇73：25-26
十二，关键词：安宁、健康
亲爱的，我愿你事事安宁，身体健康，正如你的心神安宁一样。
约翰三书1：2
结束语：
在神创造的所有受造物中，唯有人拥有了神的形象 ，而作为最后被创造的女人，更是分外宝贵。
我们呼吁全社会更加尊重女性的尊严与价值，给她们与男性一样的自由生存空间。
女性心灵和智性的健康，是对家庭和下一代的健康的保障。
让我们一同关注女性的生命安全，这不仅是全社会的责任，更是一个社会文明的底线。
盼望今年的妇女节，更多的女性得到社会的关怀以及基督徒群体的守望与祷告。
