Topic: Depression- An Enemy Of Restoration [Thursday November 30, 2017]
Scripture: Then David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep. And David was greatly distressed… 1 Sam 30:4 and 6a
Thought For The Day: There is no celebration in depression, and there can be no restoration where there is depression.
Medically, depression is viewed as an illness that involves the body, mood and thought of a person. Simply put, depression is an act of feeling sad and suppressed emotionally.
Depression is an enemy of acceleration and restoration. There can be no restoration in depression. Where there is depression, restoration is scarce.
Our anchor scripture shows that David wept until there was no strength to weep again. The truth is, depression deprives a person of energy to pursue. And what is not pursued cannot be restored. The inability to pursue is the reason for deficiency in restoration.
Depression is a confirmation of defeat. You cannot be depressed and attain your destiny. There is no celebration in depression, and there can be no restoration where there is depression.
My counsel is, determine to maintain a permanent atmosphere of excitement around your life. Whatever the devil wants you to do, do the opposite – if he wants you sad, be glad, if he wants you depressed, jubilate, if he wants you to mourn, make merriment.
I prophesy the restoration of joy and celebration in your life, in Jesus’ Name.
Remember This: There is no celebration in depression and there can be no restoration where there is depression.
