DESTROYING What Leads to DEATH
Without a vision, the
people perish. We need a vision.
Everyone needs a vision for their life.
We are not going to
have the blueprint, but a vision is essential.
We need to pay
attention to the true prophetic Vision and Word.
Proverbs 29:18
English
Standard Version
Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint, but blessed is he who keeps the law.
Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint, but blessed is he who keeps the law.
There are people who
die for lack of knowledge.
Hosea
4:6

Standard Version
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge;…
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge;…
Psalm 16:11
English
Standard Version (ESV)
11 You make known to me the path of
life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
The joy of the Lord is
your strength. Put on Worship
music!!! The Lord inhabits the praises
of His people.
Turn on the worship
music and leave it on!!! Do not turn it
off. Let the music and worship flow 24/7.
The enemy who tries to
bring you depression and suicide will flee as you let God into your home. He dwells in the Worship. The enemy will say, “Oh, there’s too much God
in this house.” He will eventually flee.
Isaiah 61:3
English Standard Version
to grant to those who mourn in Zion— to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit; that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he may be glorified.

Psalm
28:7
7 The Lord is my
strength and my shield;
in him my heart trusts, and I am helped;
my heart exults,
and with my song I give thanks to him.
in him my heart trusts, and I am helped;
my heart exults,
and with my song I give thanks to him.
The
enemy will put thoughts into people’s minds.
“I
feel like everything is hopeless.”
“Maybe
I would be better off dead.”
“I’m
just a burden to my family.”
“I’m
a loser that’s done nothing with my life.”
The
enemy can insert thoughts. He will put
them in first person, and make you think those are your own thoughts.
People
who have heard voices have heard the demons speaking at times. They have heard them say nasty things about
them.
An
individual needs to not be ignorant of the enemy’s devices, in order to defeat
him.
Read
the Scriptures. Read the Scriptures to
learn about God and His ways of Love.
Learn about the Life, Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Read daily, and use the Scripture against the
enemy.
In
order to understand how to defeat depression, you need to understand
Who gives Life. The Spirit gives Life and that is the antithesis of death.
Who gives Life. The Spirit gives Life and that is the antithesis of death.
John
6:63
English
Standard Version
It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.
It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.
Another thing that is needed to defeat
depression and suicide is FELLOWSHIP.
This is a big one.
Hebrews
10:23-25
English
Standard Version
23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. 24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, 25 not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

We need to fellowship
together. When we meet together, even if
we are weak, we are strengthened. There
is strength in unity.
The enemy comes along
and sees the unity and cannot succeed very easily.
Deuteronomy
32:30
English
Standard Version
How could one have chased a thousand, and two have put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had given them up?
How could one have chased a thousand, and two have put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had given them up?
If one can put a thousand to flight and
two can put ten thousand to flight, then what?
The enemy cannot easily pass through the doors to destroy one who is in
fellowship. Come fellowship on a regular
basis.
I highly suggest fellowship at a minimum
of one day a week. However, when one is
feeling down, fellowship more. Do the
opposite of what the enemy wants.
The enemy wants to isolate you. Fellowship multiple times per week to defeat
Satan.
Call up a friend and pray with that
person and go out for coffee. Read the
Bible together.
DESTROYING DEATH
1. You need a Vision
for your life.
2. You need knowledge
to defeat the enemy.
3. You need to worship
and praise the Lord.
4. You need fellowship.
2 Peter 3:9
English
Standard Version9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you,[a] not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.
Why does the enemy attack? He attacks those he wants to control.
If he cannot control one way, he uses another tactic. What Satan’s army wants is TOTAL Control.
This is why his army uses any tactic he can use. He will attack sexually, spiritually,
Emotionally, or in any way that he imagines will work for a person.
Some people who are already not walking with God he does not attack. The enemy already figures that they are under his control so he does not bother to attack them.
If you are a Believer and struggle with depression, take heart. It’s just another tactic of the enemy. We can overcome the enemy.
Mark 2:17
English Standard Version
And when Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.”
