God Healed Me From Depression

But he was pierced because of our rebellion, crushed because of our iniquities; punishment for our peace was on him, and we are healed by his wounds. We all went astray like sheep; we all have turned to our own way; and the Lord has punished him for the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth. Like a lamb led to the slaughter and like a sheep silent before her shearers, he did not open his mouth.
Isaiah 53:5‭-‬7 CSB

***

When the Lord told me to get away from my family in May 2019 I could not believe the pain I would endure. I endured betrayal, I was lied on , I was hurt in ways you cannot imagine, and I was humiliated.

And yet God told me the reason it happened is because “I had to show you who people really were”. I learned that people are really evil. But in this pain I was drawn the closest to God as He worked supernatural provision into my life. Literally what the devil meant for evil God turned around for the good (Romans 8:28).

***

As God healed me from depression He showed me Joni Eareckson Tada (Who Is A Major Modern Day Prophet). I watched her movie and looked at her journey as she suffered through life coping with being paralyzed and bound to a wheelchair. Not only that I watched the mean comments on YouTube about this beautiful prophet of God saying it was her fault even though it wasnt. And God used her to teach me about life. In life when we are depressed sometimes we get kicked while we are down… but Through Jesus we have to keep going. When God was healing me through depression I was so vulnerable and had to face the very evil that got me to that state… but because of God I am healed.

***

Sometimes in life we have to remember the woman with the issue of blood. She spent all her money trying to be healed but it didnt work.. so what did she do? She touched the hem of his garment…. And Let me tell you from personal experience… Depression will put you in position to touch the hem of his garment like never before.

So what did I do ?

I got intentional about my walk with God.

  • I prayed like crazy to God
  • I dont even give the devil a chance (Ephesians 4:27)… When I wake up this is the first thing I see.
  • And finally I learned how to say NO to people who literally mean me no good. I don’t answer their calls and I dont spend time with them. I have learned the power of NO (Matthew 25).

During Hard Times of Sadness FOCUS on The Great I Am and He Will see you through.

I KNOW IT WAS THE BLOOD,

Diamond

Daily Bread: Through Jesus I am Free

Galatians 5:1 Expanded Bible (EXB)

Keep Your Freedom

5 Christ set us free ·so that we could live in freedom [to a place of freedom; or by means of freedom; 4:31]. So stand strong. Do not ·change and go back into the slavery of the law [L submit/be fastened to a yoke of slavery].

Inspiration:

When God answers our prayer we must trust Him to maintain them. Keep the freedom God has given you, so that he may hide you under his grace. Living a life as a believer of God is not about being paranoid, but understanding boundaries.

Prayer:

Dear Lord Heavenly Father,

Help me and guide me to enjoy my life. Help me to not live in fear and to embrace that comfort of Jesus Christ. Thank You for your ultimate sacrifice and leading me to victory.  In Jesus Name, I pray. Thank God, Amen.

Daily Bread: Focusing On God

Haggai 2:14 Expanded Bible (EXB)

14 Then Haggai answered, “The Lord says, ‘This is also true for the people of this nation. They are ·unclean [defiled], and everything they do with their hands is unclean to me. Whatever they offer at the altar is also ·unclean [defiled].

Inspiration:

When God gives a warning, if you receive it or not it is going to come to pass (Ezekiel 2:5). The Bible tells us that His word will not return void. Sin leads to death, and it has consequences. Be mindful of how you treat other people in your day to day life, you never know who is watching you.

Prayer:

Dear Lord Heavenly Father,

I ask and I pray for wisdom for my daily routine. Help me to walk in Christ like character so that I will give you  honor in my behavior. Help me to love and concentrate, and to remove all distractions from my faith walk. In Jesus Name, I pray. Thank God, Amen.

Daily Bread: Trusting God Through Difficult Times

Ephesians 3:20-21 Expanded Bible (EXB)

20 ·Glory be to God, who can [L Now to the One who is able to] do much, much more than anything we can ask or imagine through his power working in us. 21 To him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus for all ·time [generations], forever and ever. Amen.

Inspiration:

Dear Abba, We know that through you we are more than conquerors. Help us to focus, I ask, on what your plans are more than negative comments. Help me to be determined to follow you. Amen.

Prayer:

Dear Lord Heavenly Father,

Through You I can do all things through Christ that gives me strength. Help me to see the good in everything that you do. You are my shield, my refuge in times of trouble, and through You I am safe. You are my hiding place, you keep me safe in times of trouble. In Jesus’ Name, I pray. Thank God, Amen.

Daily Bread: For God So Loved The World

Haggai 1:11 Expanded Bible (EXB)

11 I have called for a ·time without rain [drought] on the land, and on the ·mountains [hill country], and on the grain, the new wine, the olive oil, the plants which the earth produces, the people, the ·farm animals [livestock], and all the work of your hands.”

Inspiration:

Many times when we face persecution we automatically assume its some wicked or foreign attack. Some warfare is a wake-up call, that God is trying to get your attention. When we face adversity, we must pause in his presence ask the Lord what he may be showing you in this season.

Prayer:

Dear Lord Heavenly Father,

Help me not to vent my feelings. I rebuke all feelings of jealousy and rage that may lead me to sin. Help me to focus on You and what is important in my day to day life. Help me to trust You through all of my hard times. In Jesus’ Name, I pray. Thank God, Amen.
