I had depression for many years, a darkness and heavy weight on my shoulders. A few years ago I was led to pray a prayer to break generational curses in my family line and I did so, the next day I woke up and I felt really light, it wasn't until after maybe 10 minutes, I realized the heavy weight and darkness was completely gone. It has not returned since, which is about 4 years now. God is good.

Pastor Derek Prince has indepth teaching and deliverance prayers for these types of bondages. I've tried it, but it did not work for me for depression. I did get delivered from a spirit of (something we're not allowed to say online anymore). I definitely felt very different after. For many years that spirit no longer afflicted me, I still got depression, but the urge to * myself were gone. That kind of oppression has come back in this worst and longest depression, but I resist letting it back in. I really could use prayer. Not all of us get delivered from this, but I'm always glad for someone that does get delivered.

@@saintejeannedarc9460 praying for you!!! I think there is hope in knowing a couple things. 1) We can be healed of any mental illness. God can do it. 2) Is knowing the one that can heal us. I’m not sure why mental illness is a season for many and a lifetime for many. I’m sure if we sat down and had a conversation we could possible identify things that help and hurt. He hasn’t taken mine away for 28.5 years BUT GOD. I believe with every ounce of me He can heal us… when? It may or may not be this side of Heaven. What I know for sure is you are a child of God and He loves you. My heart breaks that you are dealing with this. Breaks.

I just found your channel so happy I did. I’ve had 2 churches turn me away because I have depression and take medication for it. The pastors told me I was going to hell and they almost pushed me to suicidal. I have church online because I don’t know where to go or who to turn to. God saved me and saved me from suicide I punish myself and I don’t need others to punish me and judge me. God bless you for these videos

Sis I am so, so sorry that happened to you and so very thankful you realized that’s not God and tan TO Him instead of away. I believe deep within me carnal Christian’s have zero knowledge about many topics BUT instead of saying, I don’t know or I don’t understand they “fear up” so to speak and condemn the person rather than learn and grow as people. Many, many people in the Bible had depression/anxiety…. Jesus sweat drops of blood from anguish. 70% of pastors on a survey my pastor talked about suffer with depression/anxiety at some point or points .

If people out there could please pray for me that I’d finally be delivered and know God’s peace and joy, I’d be very grateful. I continue to hope.

There is a saying, "It is no sign of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick system." In the series The Chosen, there is a dialogue between "Little" James and Jesus. And Jesus tells James, when James asks Jesus why He hasn't/doesn't heal him. And Jesus' response was "because I trust you to keep your faith even though you have not been healed, and that this confession of faith is so much more powerful than someone with faith because they were healed." That really moved me (to tears). Depression and anxiety are appropriate responses to living in this evil world system, especially when you care deeply about God and His people! Thank you so much for sharing your vulnerability...so healing❤❤❤

Thank you, Sister. I needed to hear this. I've been struggling with depression for decades. When I wasn't walking with the Lord, it was bad. I'm walking with the Lord, been baptized, pray and read the Bible everyday, trust and obey as much as poasible;I'm grateful, and know I'm forgiven, but still have bouts of depression. I've come to accept it for whoI am. I just continue to trust and obey, and live in hope and expectation that God has a plan and a purpose for my life and that everything is going to be okay because I walk in the Light and God's got me. He will never leave me nor forsake me. ❤

Same sis. I’ve been a Christian as long as I’ve struggled with depression and anxiety. .. I still have bad days, I do talk some about them in a couple videos but the bad days are better and shorter than they used to be. I start fighting early in the fight and come back to my “normal” sooner. That’s complete opposite of what it used to be. I was convinced bad periods would keep coming and be longer and harder than before. We seem to be very similar. Praying for you.

I had severe, suicidal depression due to five foods I was eating. As long as I avoided them I was fine. If I slipped it was three days of severe depression. One day I went to the doc and told him I needed antibiotics for a suspected sinus infection. I was totally breathless. Yes, antibiotics screw up your gut but I had no choice. The breathlessness left in a day, the sinuses took a bit longer. I knew somehow I could eat whatever I wanted and surely enough, I haven't had depression since. For me it was bad gut bacteria. Out of 1 to a 10, it was a 100. It was horrific.

Note: I will never comprehend how with our brain being the other major organ in our body, how people think we can’t possibly have issues with. If we can have physical complications with it, we can have mental ones too. There is a reason he said “lean not on your understanding for i will direct your path”.

I have struggled with depression, anxiety and suicidal ideation. I've tried to commit suicide 3 times. And it's something I've thought about almost every day. I'm a lifelong Christian. I was raised in a Christian home and gave my heart to Jesus at 8 yrs old. I don't remember a time when I didn't know and believe in Jesus. I'm a deep Bible study-ier (I know, not a word, lol). I love studying my Bible and I love my Lord. But I shamefully confess my depression and anxiety. I know it's not sin but what it can lead us to do is sinful such as suicide, lack of faith, negative, ungratefulness, etc. Like you, I can honestly say I wouldn't be here if it weren't for God. I can take NO credit for still being alive. So I keep trying to fight it and I'm 65 yrs old today and still here all glory to Him! I am fighting and I am fighting every day and I am fighting it with the help of the Lord. I am weak and each day shows me how weak I am but He is strong and every day that I make it shows how strong He is! Evidently He has His plan through all of this. I've prayed and prayed too but this may be my thorn in the flesh. Something that keeps me dependent on Him. And if it is, then I accept it from His Hand and trust He will get me through the mental torture. I can't imagine trying to live without God.

I have to say thank you so much. I’m only 5 minutes in. I am a woman of such deep deep faith and the Lord was ministering to me about Paul’s thorn in the flesh. Thankfully my depressive episodes are not weeks or months but for days and my husband who has never struggled with it cannot empathize or understand what it’s like. It’s almost frustrating being a woman of deep faith and dealing with this “thorn in the flesh”. I have a book on God’s promises and I flipped exactly to the scripture where Paul asked God to remove this thorn and He said “my grace is sufficient, in your weakness my power is made perfect” it was comforting to read that and then being led to this video was just another confirmation that I’m not alone. I’m here carrying this cross with you my precious brothers and sisters in Christ. I’m hear carrying your souls with you. I love you all I’m Christ. Thank you for this video you’re a blessing ✨🕊️

The thing I've learned being a Christian and having mental illness like anxiety and depression and intrusive thoughts is since Jesus, I've learned to accept that it's something that happens to me, not that it is my identity. I am a child of God but in a fallen, imperfect body, not to mention the years upon years I was deceived by the world and got a pretty heavy mental and emotional beating and living in open rebellion to God. (ex-lgbt) I was always passively suicidal. But God has changed my life. I truly and wholly believe I am in the process of sanctification, a renewing of mind now that is dependent and ever leaning to the One who created me. The attacks still happen, and I continually pray for it to be over one day, but for now, God knows best, and I know His grace and mercy is sufficient for the day. 🙏

Funny thing I never really doubted God, it was me that was in question. The word that’s used today is scrupulosity. I’ve prayed, fasted and served about every office in the local church with the exception of Senior Pastor and I’ve seen miracles some of which were as I prayed for others but never totally receiving one my self!

I’m so sorry you are struggling. Praying it gets better soon. Prayers and faith do help but sometimes God doesn’t give us a cure ( right away or maybe never ). What I can tell you is God loves you so, so much and He is with you always. Study, read, listen to His word. Focus on God and not what other’s opinion of what you are going thru are. It is hard for people who have never dealt with mental illness to understand. They just want you to get better and sometimes say things that sting without meaning to. When you have no knowledge of something it’s hard to speak on it and almost impossible to understand/have compassion/put yourself in their shoes.

Many Protestant Churches don't want to deal with it. There are ministers like Rick Warren, Dr. David Jeremiah, and others understand that anxiety, depression, fear, panic, worry are not sins. Mental issues can be genetic, brain chemistry or past trauma. Your examples from the Bible are exactly correct. Typically, larger evangelical churches are open to the need for counseling and medication. Don't be upset by those who lack knowledge and wisdom about these issues. The Lord bless you.

Same. I’ve struggled with that for 27 years. Finally, and I’m still very much a work in progress, I’m being to see/feel/believe that God loves me just as the next person. I’ve said before I feel like some times the mold broke when I was made and while He loves me, He is up there saying whew and shaking his head. He sees our hearts tho friend. He sees thru us and sees what is in us. I wasn’t sure for a long, long time why God didn’t just bring me home. We all have a purpose. Our individual purpose here on this earth. There is literally no telling all the things you have done that have made a difference for someone. Even when we don’t see those things. It’s a smile at someone, holding the door, saying hello. When you feel not seen those things can make all the difference.

I'm just so happy to hear someone such as yourself and even others when they stand up and say "you know what, this isn't so abnormal to go through".

Hi thank you so much for this video . I just had someone tell me it's only suppose to happen in seasons but they are suppose to be healed and if not something's wrong. But I have schizophrenia and and I suffered for years . But I have tried seeking god through this I had such dark days but he just keeps getting me back up to again When I have felt so broken it's only by the grace of god that I can smile through the kinds of sufferings I have had to walk through .

YES. God and God alone have gotten me thru many hard times. I’ve said repeatedly that if it not for God, I would not be here anymore. People tend to judge what they haven’t dealt with. Mental illness is a big one that gets judged harshly. I can’t promise the dark days will stop BUT GOD. The best thing I have found is to study my Bible and pray. The more I study the more I understand Gods word and the more people’s opinions seem to bounce off me… not all the time haha… as I’m sure you know once I have seen/heard/felt something it goes on repeat in my mind BUT GOD.. it’s getting better. It’s been a 28 plus year battle for me friend… and I have zero doubts God can and will heal us… it may or may not be on this side of Heaven but as long as I am alive I’m going to draw closer to God each day.

@@strongereveryday8905 well spoken We the children of god who can understand how the suffering feels Can be the voice to hurting people in the world to help them with these kinds of words they need to hear in thier lives that may feel hopeless or judged. but God can use our story to help others who are broken and use us to bring people to christ and demonstrate god's love . It's not all what it looks out to be so terrible. Yes mental illness is so hard and many dark days of depression but I know god can use the bad and turn it for the good to show others we can get up and believe he is our god worship him through the darkest days . Some days I didn't even want to get out of bed it got so dark . And it's hard to open up out there and tell others what your going though because fear that they will judge that maybe it's a faith issue or maybe your not really saved . But I know I believe and god can use me to be a voice for his kingdom even if times are horrible or good for me in that moment . Here are two other amazing helpful videos that helped me on this subject The first video on you tube is called does god always heal? By melissa dougherty. The second video is called does god promise us divine healing ? By the beat allen parr. It also help alot with this . Someone told me yesterday that it's only suppose to happen in seasons not forever .

I get it. I suffered ( and that isn’t an accurate description ) with major depression disorder and anxiety for 27 plus years. I was full convinced that nothing would help, things would never get better, I was always going to be like this… but things did change… finally. I quit letting the devil put 1,000’s of bull crap thoughts in my head. All that it’s always going to be like this, never going to get better, I’ve tried it all and nothing works, might as well phone it in. Instead I started diving deep into Gods word and hearing the truths about me. I am loved, wanted, needed, precious in His eyes, a child of God who knows every single tear I’ve cried and despite all my actions/sins/etc loves me with every single ounce of Him. Never left my side and in fact carried me most of that 27 years with no help from me. He never stopped caring and loving me. Can every single person no matter the mental illness be healed… I’ll be honest… I’m not sure but I think a very large % can be and with God nothing is impossible. I am living proof of that. As far as going to hell for taking meds, I guess every single person on earth is bc we all take meds for something even if it is just for a headache. You are either pro meds or against ALL meds. Picking and choosing is man’s pride and judgement.

I know this is six months old, but I’m glad I found it. I just picked myself up out of a puddle of tears after BAWLING for two hours. Everything is hauntingly, dismal and almost hopeless. But, you’re absolutely correct. Jesus did experience depression. It just wasn’t called that back then. As you said, He asked Father God if it was His will, let the cup be passed from Him. Nevertheless… He went willingly. When you said all sinners - past, present and future… That really hit me. FYI: Do you know what the shortest line of scripture in the Bible is? Jesus wept. Isn’t that simply heartbreaking for someone that was 100% innocent/never sinned? 💔 I love my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ I have believed in Jesus, since I was 5 years old. I went from being a very outgoing and happy person…helped people all the time… giving money, not expecting it back..,and I was always positive. A couple people called me “silver lining girl”. Now… I feel SO low, that I guess, as a Christian… THIS must be rock-bottom. Why do I say that? As a Christian, I would never take my own.li fe. I want to be with the Lord. So, we undoubtedly know that certain things are off-limits. Only thing I can say is… I sincerely understand why some people do it . We really aren’t here for very long when you think about it. But, eternity in hell? No, thank you. I could pass tomorrow or I could live another 40 years! I’m 59. I don’t wanna even think about 40 more years of this feeling - who! If that with the Lord has Store for me… I have no choice. at least until I can find the solution for me. I would think everyone is different, as far as that goes. I always told myself, “after all Jesus has done for me…for all of us… I can suffer a while for Him. It’s the least I can do”!! But! Because I know Him… there is no way He would want one of his children feeling like this for almost 14 years.” That’s not possible!! I have been seeking an answer for a long time and have tried so many things… But, they just didn’t work. I’ve been honest with Jesus, so I’ll be honest with anybody reading this… After 14 years… You can barely find this strength to do the tiniest tasks. I rarely leave my home. I’m always exhausted. Absolutely nothing makes me happy anymore. And I just found out that all the chronic pain, arthritis, and other things? Those can manifest with MDD. If I did not have a relationship with Jesus Christ, I would be gone. And I would’ve been the one who made that happen. But, since I Do have Him… I suffer … I’ve just gotten to the point where I don’t know what to do anymore - because I barely take it any longer…I can barely function. My mom turned 80 today! When I lose her someday, it will be a slippery slope and a very treacherous time. I also realize that Jesus never abandoned me. When I’m barely hanging on, He’s actually carrying me. That I know to be true. But, I also know that He does NOT want this for me… or ANY of His children, for that matter! So, after trying everything I can think of… I’m now searching for the “why“. Maybe if I understood better, I may feel a little bit better - even a tiny bit would be like a refreshing drink of water after two days in the desert… Thank you to anyone that may have taken the time to read this. I am just a nobody among billions. Importance is being a child. of God - and I pray He blesses you 💜 🕊️ ✨ EDIT: You sound JUST like me. (I commented before I watched it all). Please stay away from JM…false teacher, sister. It will only confuse you and make it worse - I’m sure. Hopefully JM will repent. Also, you are blessed that you have “breaks” from this.

Always wondering why I was this way and when would it end. June of 2022 God told me my calling was to help others walk thru what I was walking thru. I dove deep into studying my Bible, working on my mind, praying, I changed my priorities. It has made a huge difference for the first time in my life. Not every day is rainbows and sunshine but I feel God carrying me thru and His anointing on me. I talk to God all day long. Many, many of us have been and are right where you are sis. I wish there was a perfect phrase I could say to make it all go away but I can’t. What I know is I’m not ashamed anymore and I love helping others dealing with what we deal with. We aren’t alone. Praying for things to shift for you. Keep moving forward one mm at a time. I know it’s way easier said than done. Believe me… I know. Give yourself grace when you need it and learn when you need to rest or push thru.

Being a Christian seems to make this worse if that makes sense. I know i should be better but i feel stuck in a hole that i cannot escape from. I feel like i have no strength left to fight. I don't know what to do. I can barely pray anymore.

I’ve been there friend. Done, past tired, past the want to fight, past care, just done. Give yourself a little grace. The devil is coming at your hard and that is for a reason friend… something good is coming. Take it one second at a time. I’ve felt the worse when your a Christian side of things on 2 points. 1, judge by myself and others for not being “strong enough” to pull myself up and 2, feeling like everything I heard ( sermons ) was directly at me. I saw my weakness. What I can tell you for sure is God has you in His arms right now. Let Him carry you for a second. Give yourself grace. You’re a child of God. No one is perfect.

@@NoneyaBusiness-b8l What I do when I’m in that place is I attempt to rest, I attempt to study Gods word ( most of the time I just listen to a video teaching or repeat Jesus over and over ), I allow myself grace to feel what I’m feeling understanding I’m not alone. All of this is relative bc let’s be honest, when your in that place, ANY task is a lot. Fight back ( and yes, I know your past wanting to fight ). Do anything and everything you can to make yourself feel better. Maybe it’s small like a cool rag on your face, shower, light a candle, watch a movie that usually makes you laugh.

Right now, your fighting wether you see that or not… fight to help yourself. You are worthy friend. YOU are worthy. Talk to a counselor, friend, anyone that can give you Godly advice. Pray even it the only thing you can say is God help me.

I feel for you, I can see you are so trying to not show how ill you are. Looking at you I see me. I understand & agree, God is there with you, with me, with everyone if God is invited into our hearts & homes. I do ask, Why God are you letting me struggle with my brain. I wish God would help me, why is he not, does anyone know? I have pulled away from my partner, friends, I feel I am detached from everyone & everything. Please take good care of yourself & your lovely animals. ❤

Thank you friend. I’m so sorry you are struggling. I asked myself why God for years. 27 years. Finally He answered me and told me to help others with the same thing I am going through. Depression gets you to that point of detaching. Some do it bc we want to be alone, some bc we don’t want others to see our pain, some bc we don’t want our pain to affect others. Several other reasons as well. Praying for you.

I am so sorry you are dealing with so much. Lean into God. Depend on Him. God is THE only one that has never let me down… no matter how far in the pit I was. People let us down. Most of the time I truly believe they don’t mean to do it but it happens. I’ve said before, words often don’t meet that need we have in our hearts/souls when we are struggling BUT GOD. I know where you are at ( minus the pregnancies ). Take one second at a time. Stop all the crap thoughts and replace with good ones. Even if all you can do is repeat Jesus over and over ( and I have ) to fight off the bad thoughts. The devil is attacking you for a reason… something great is coming sis… keep going. He is trying to divert you from what God has planned. You’re going to fight anyways… fight to be healthier mentally. Praying for you. You CAN make it.

@@codzy3532 I believe God sees your heart. You have a lot of things that happened in your past that have made it hard to trust, let you guard down around people. Pray God brings the right people around you. Pray He heals those past hurts and opens your heart to accept new friends. Also know tho, God loves you for being you. We all fall short of being a perfect example of God here on earth yet He sees our heart. I tend to fall more on the loner side of things and did most of my life. God worked on me for a long time removing people, giving me time to lean hard on Him, then is slowing bringing people back into my life. Those “alone” years were many tho.

You mentioned 'Joyce Meyer' in your video. I would like to suggest her 'book of scripture quotations' to quote out loud, as a starting place for healing. As we know the Word of God is alive and powerful!! I have experienced great results in mine and my family members lives, from continual meditation on and confession of, the Word of God!! (..I made my own list of Gods good Word from the King James Bible version. You don"t even have to buy a another book unless you want something already compiled for you.) My understanding of depression is that it is 'more than just normal expected feelings of sadness over certain life events' . But it is unusually deep and ongoing, or reoccurring, and sometimes seems to be unexplainable. It seems it is most always linked to life traumas that are still unhealed; whether identified or still unidentified. Due to this; many times wounds and certain patterns of thinking and perceiving get strongholds in ones basic belief systems. The Word of God can begin the process of renewing those old thoughts and beliefs, to healthier, and more functional ones. (..Thus, "being renewed in the spirit of your mind..") And therefore helping one to see and perceive their lives more in the light of the truth of God's Word. This inevitably has a freeing effect. And surely this is what we all want, as an end result. As we know, our loving Lord Jesus came to set the captives free"" "He is the Lord our healer" And freedom and healing are always his desire for us. He is the Father of all mercy and the God of all compassion. "He sent his Word and healed us." Let us seek to lean into the precious Word of God, and find his wondrous words of life, are powerfully healing still...All my love in Christ beloved..

LIKE PAUL, IT SEEMS DEPRESSION/ANXIETY IS YOUR 'thorn in the flesh..' JUST LOOK HOW MUCH YAH USED HIM. YOU WERE BORN TO LOVE AND SERVE YAH WITH WHAT YOU ARE GIVEN, YOUR CONDITION IS WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN WHETHER MAN THINKS SO OR NOT. WHY? CONSIDER THIS. 2 CORINTHIANS 12:9 Berean Standard Bible But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on me.

I totally agree with you that there is nothing wrong with being depressed. Receiving the gift of no condemnation is the beginning of healing. Now, I want to encourage you to not just stop there. Any kind of sickness and diseases is part of the curse (Deuteronomy 28:59-61). And you know what the good news is? By hanging on the tree, Jesus has redeemed us from the curse of law (Galatians 3:13). You mentioned about how Jesus became so anguished at Gethsemane. Do not see that as, "Even Jesus Himself had mental breakdown, therefore it is alright for me to experience it too." Instead, see that as Jesus taking YOUR anxiety and depression upon His own body, so you no longer have to suffer them. Matthew 8:17 declares, "He Himself took our illnesses and carried away our diseases." From now on, stop praying begging prayers and start giving thanks. Let's thank our Savior incessantly for the perfect work that He has accomplished at the cross, not only for the forgiveness of our sin, but also for the redemption from every curse of the law; one of which is sickness. Keep actively possessing your blood-bought inheritance in Christ. You are greatly blessed, highly favored, and deeply loved.
