“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” – Psalm 46:1 (KJV)
God loves to heal His people or children. The Scriptures declare that it is God’s Will for His people to walk in health. Exodus 15:26 (KJV) tells us, “…If you diligently heed the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in His sight…, I will put none of these diseases on you…For I am the Lord Who heals you.”
I have witnessed different persons suffer depression and seen its effects and the struggles that they go through at various stages of mental illness. I have also had family and friends healed of cancer and other diabolical diseases. As a wife, mother and grandmother, there were times when I was plagued by worry, fear, guilt, and anxiety caused by the pressures of life. God does not want us to be a victim of any of this torment but to be healed – 2 Timothy 1:7. We must not give in to fears’ destructive power any longer, for God has made provision to heal us – Psalm 103:3 (NKJV).
Faith in God’s name and His Word makes us strong and gives us perfect soundness in mind, soul and body. This all comes through our belief in Him. We must have His mind within us and this frees us from all mental disorders. Let the mind of Christ Jesus rule within you at all times. He has made provision for all diseases of mind and body – Acts 3:16 (NKJV).
God wants you to experience total wholeness – 1 Thessalonians 5:23 (NKJV). Seek Him today.
Prayer
God, my Father, when the pressures of life threaten to overcome me, help me to remember that You want me to be whole. Help me to draw near to You. In Christ Jesus, You have provided a way for me to be free from depression, anxiety, guilt, fear, worry, and every other sickness.
Lord, faith in Your Word makes me strong. I gird up my loins with the truth of Your Word. You have commanded me not to be troubled but to trust in You, for You are a present help in trouble. I will not let my heart be troubled because I trust and believe in You. Thank you for Your peace and grace. Amen.
