Topic: HANDLING DEPRESSION 7: Keep Serving God
MEMORY VERSE:
Proverbs 24:10.
“10. If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.
BIBLE READING:
Luke 1:8-9.
“8. And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest’s office before God in the order of his course,
9. According to the custom of the priest’s office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.”
One of the reasons why the devil brings depression, it’s for you to loose focus of God and to abandon His service. He gives you reason to turn your back against God, and when you turn against Him who can save you from depression? Nobody, and that’s why many end up commiting suicide, that shall not be your portion in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.
When you’re not serving God you are prepared to serve the devil. When you take your gaze away from serving God Almighty, the devil will give you reasons to give up on yourself, but if you will keep serving God, one day, He will visit your depressed soul and attend to your situations beyond your expectations.
Zacharias was childless till old age but He kept serving God not minding the Shame and depression of childlessness. He made it his focus to keep doing his best for God. He served Him till the day God visited him. If you will overcome depression make sure you don’t run away from serving God. To serve God is to be relevant in His kingdom, to be a vessel for God to reach out to others but to seek God is to build a personal relationship with God. No matter your relationship with God, you’re meant to serve Him by affecting other lives. Serve God in His vineyard and depression will find no resting place within you.
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.
