We are going to talk about a heavy subject today. If you are experiencing depression, despair, excessive mourning, sorrow, grief, hopelessness, self-pity, loneliness, disappointment, sleep issues, inner hurts, and bruises, you may have a Spirit of Heaviness.
The Spirit of Heaviness tries to take our joy of living by loading us down with Heaviness.The doctors may have prescribed anti-depressants, and you may feel suitable for a time, and then you are overcome again. You cannot put a patch on a Spirit of Heaviness and expect it to go away. You must be delivered from it. Jesus came to give you the garment of praise for the Spirit of Heaviness (Isaiah 61:3).
“And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered:” Joel 2:32Once delivered, put on the Helmet of Salvation to protect your mind.
“But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.” 1 Thess 5:8
God will keep you in perfect peace if you keep your mind on Him (Isaiah 26:3)
