The only thing that works for me is to spend some time praising God! It takes my mind off of all the things that make me depressed and reminds me of His goodness. :) It returns me to a state of mind where I know He is working in my heart and in my life, and it reminds me that that there is truly no greater joy than to have intimacy with the One who made me and who loves me most of all!

I think you right on it...regardless of how depression happens isolation is the result...a detachment tha says no one knows or cares how I really feel...That is the reason the answer is always external to my thinking...The Christian needs to expse himself/herself to the logic of the Kingdom...Non-christians will find it in caring for or getting involved in serving others...because again the answer is external

I would say don't let your search for answers stop there. I would keep searching my heart and ask God to search your heart and reveal to you what he sees.

Hi,

I also took anit-depressants and they didn't help. then me and my team began to pray against my depression every day and to break generational curses. It really helped and solved my problem! :emot-hug:

When I layed off the caffeine it really helped me too! :emot-hug:

When I used to get depressed I would take an herbal supplement which helped alot but, I didn't want to be reliable on them. What I do now is lay off the caffeine, and exercise. Praying helps alot too!

It is very much a time to be in Jesus special care. Remember always the beautiful things that he put on this earth to inspire us and give beauty to our lives. His creation and nature. It depends on where you live but a walk in nature and reminder of Gods beautiful creation can help you it is also very important to get proper exercise and look after your health with proper food rest and sleep. This may sound basic but looking after the temple and spending time in Gods presence will help him heal our hearts. There we can hear his voice and take a path of action that can be steps leading out of the valley and onto higher plains of blessing. At this time one must walk very closely with the Lord, he will strenghten his precious saints through this time.

So many great posts.

For me, the bible helped. I wrote down verses which were joyful, God's promises, verses which commanded me to be joyful or promised me joy and said them aloud. I prayed. Kept in contact with God basically.

1 Thess 5:16-18 Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you who belong in Christ Jesus.

I would have my good cry, but then I would go to God. :rolleyes:

Here's a link from a website that really helped me with questions of all kinds.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
