Mobile Daily Devotional with Pst. Oluboye Emmanuel Week 18, Day 6: Friday, 5th May, 2023. Topic: HANDLING DEPRESSION 6: Seek For God.

“Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:”

One thing depression should help us do is to seek God, search for God and run to Him. Depression is not to take us away from God but to push us toward Him. It should makes us crave for Him, for His personality and not send us away from Him. It should help us seek for His will concerning our lives because God has never intended us to be depressed, No, He’s intention for us has always being good so we need to seek His face to hear Him speak to us. Prophet Isaiah said, we should seek Him while He may be found and call upon Him while He is near us.

The widow of the sons of the Prophet seek the face of The Lord by going to Prophet Elisha to report her depressed situation as a result of her late husband’s debt. Who are you seeking during your depressed period? Is it man or God, senator or maker of Men? Who do you seek after? It’s time to turn to the right place and the right God. Seek for Him while He may Be found.

HOW DO YOU SEEK GOD?

Isaiah 55:7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

By forsaking your wrong ways and turn to God. To stop seeking for man’s help and ask for God’s help. Stop seeking for revenge and forgive. Stop your evil ways and turn to righteousness, then you will find Him where He is.

Good Day And God Bless you.

Happy Birthday to all celebrants and Happy Wedding Anniversary to those celebrating today. May you experience God’s fruitfulness in Jesus Mighty name, Amen.
