OVERCOMING DEPRESSION
Brother James, OIC
2Ti 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear;
but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
Depression is common weaponry used by the Adversary and his army of demons. It can be a mildly distracting spirit to one that lifts you high then so low you don’t know how you can go on. Some even after being called to Jesus hold onto these old spirits through old soul ties that imprison them causing the individual to isolate themselves and thinking it’s simply their lot in life to feel this way. But I am here to tell you, no matter your circumstances, no matter your past, no matter the rejection and loss in your life, Jesus Christ can and will stabilize your mind and heart and give you JOY TODAY and A LIVING HOPE OF A BETTER TOMORROW.
The spirit of fear which works with depression is dispelled with the spirit of Gods Word which is Christ being formed in you.
Joh 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
Gal 4:19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,
Rom 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
This Anointing which is Christ must be Birthed through the Word of Truth and in turn produces the Love of God in Wisdom and Power within,
1Co 1:24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
As Christ is formed within so is Power and Wisdom and this Power is the working of the supernatural through us, Gods Chosen, in this fallen natural realm while Wisdom always answers life’s circumstances with what Gods Word in them speaks.
All these things begin producing fruit in your life of which is Joy. Joy works in us a forward motion in Christ which cures all depression.
Psa 16:11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
To stay in Gods Word produces joy in your life. Why? Because Gods Word produces life.
1Jn 1:4 And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.If you are in depression make yourself study the Gods Word and God will begin opening your eyes to Truth that will make you free from depression and everything else contrary to to Gods Life in you.
