Nebuchadnezzar Loses His Mind l Voddie Baucham

- It is difficult to go through Daniel chapter 4 without realizing that, in our day and time, Nebuchadnezzar would have been diagnosed with some type of mental disorder, medicated to the point of absurdity, and put in an institution with little or no hope of returning to a normal life.
But, what is the Biblical view of mental health? How should we as Christians (and especially Pastors) look at the "mental health" industry? In this sermon, Pastor Voddie gives a Biblical look at these issues.
Nebuchadnezzar Loses His Mind l Voddie Baucham
Daniel 4:4-37

After being on anti depressants for over 20 yrs, due to a so called chemical imbalance I was able to ween myself off that medicine. My problem of depression was a sin problem. The more I have been in the word of God the more I realized I didn't need any of that. My joy comes from the Lord. Even as a believer I accepted the fact that I needed this medicine, hogwash! My medicine was always the word of the Lord, my only advice is indwell yourselves in his holy word❤
Praise God
Amen ! Gilda. I’m like reading my own story from your story. Praise God I’m not on any psychotic pills anymore. It’s been 6 yrs now off anti depressants ! God and only God’s word freed me from sin,,, Whoever Jesus free is free indeed!
@@oliviaedralin1436 Amen!. Even after gradually lessening the dose I still had terrible withdrawals. I was tempted to go back on the medicine for that reason alone. God was with me through it all and by his grace I was able to endure.
Good for you, Gilda. Reading this made me smile. I'm proud of you. I've always thought the medicating for everything known to man nowadays is insane. Times may change, but people have always been the same. Suddenly, millions of children just happened to be born with "ADHD". Well, there were times when I had ADHD as a child too. The rod (which wasn't spared) always solved the problem. And, I turned out better for it. The truth is that it takes effort, time, and love to raise a child. We have a society now that would rather medicate the children and set them in front of a computer or TV for hours. Then, they have the nerve to be surprised when that kid snaps and does something horrible. I'm just using this as an example of the "medication" issue today. I'm glad you got to a place where you were able to see through that. The more we move away from God the more mental illness we have. We actually praise men and tell them how brave they are when they decide one day that they want to be a woman. But yet, people never see the connection. It's mind boggling.
@@MeCanik79 thank you but it was truly God that made me see it as my sin. I give him all the glory. I agree with you, we make our own mess by trying to fix things in our own flesh and not trusting in God. The Lord has led us to a faithful Bible believing church and we've grown so much closer with our walk in the Lord. Praise be for men willing to stand up for what is right. I too got plenty of the rod growing up and thank God that he didn't give me parents that let me do whatever I wanted. May we all draw closer to the Lord till we see him in all his glory.
"Because his pride was inordinately large his humiliation was inordinately significant."
That's quotable profound.
Amen
Incredible, that's been me. Profound
@@seanpetz4761 Profound indeed, here I am as well
I am in the mental health field (licensed therapist). EVERY SINGLE WORD YOU SPOKE IS TRUTH. And MOST of these “diagnosed disorders” are merely a label to describe a group of behaviors. I’ve counseled with thousands of victims of abuse & their abusers will often times use the excuse of their “disorder” to blame their actions so they don’t have to own their behavior. As if they can’t help what they do bc they “have ______” (fill in with a disorder). This way they are not responsible for what they do. Other times, abusers will diagnose their victims with a disorder so as to blame the victim for the abusers behavior. It’s all crazy-making to allow for the abuse to continue. America’s medical system is one where we keep a person sick (label/diagnose them with a disorder), medicate the disorder, keep them disordered so the money train that is our medical system keeps spinning - drs diagnose so they receive payment from insurance, a rx can be written, pharmaceutical co makes money from the treatment, patient must see Dr for new rx, it repeats. Everyone profits off of sick/disordered Americans. It’s a racket. It’s ALL a great big sin & disgraceful. We look to drs to “fix” what we don’t want to “fix” (correct) so we don’t have to change what we need to change.
Exactly. I feel rage when adults are like "well I don't have to do anything or be respectful because I have a disorder" when I know people with obvious physical and mental handicaps who would love to be a part of society. Worked at a school too where the most defiant kid was given the most privileges because "special needs". Tell him he needs to not lose an activity he wants and all of a sudden he's charming and well behaved but they acted like I was an abuser 🤯
I was ruled by addiction, PTSD, depression, anxiety, you name it, I was in the belly of it for more than 15 years. At my rock bottom, I told God, I give up, I need your help. I forgave my monster and begged for God to save me. The next day I woke up and realized, I wasn't sick from withdrawal, I wasn't shaking or craving any substance. In fact, the thought of it repulsed me. I felt, peace, for the first time in 15+ years! I praised God, repented and asked for forgiveness. I started reading the Bible and after some time I finished revelation and suddenly the holy spirit came upon me and I hit the floor. My bones felt like they were on fire with something supernatural. I describe it like the feeling of infection (sin) being burned out, It was intense but not painful. The only thing I could say was GLORY TO GOD! I was one way, and now I'm completely different. Praise God! I pray everyone takes the chance on God that changes their lives forever!
I pray I can experience the same. Thank you for sharing ❤
Dr. Baucham, thank God for you! I agree with everything you’ve said! I am a licensed mental health professional in GA and I have a Christian practice! I specifically focus on the problems of mental illness through a Christian worldview! Many of my clients have a distorted view of mental health. I focus on helping them see their issues as they connect to how God wants us to live. I focus on their life issues and the areas they struggle, not seeking to give them a label they can excuse their behavior and identify themselves with! Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t, for various reasons. Often people want a pill to make them feel better; they want a diagnosis to rest on, to not have to work hard on their own lives; they are inundated with social media that celebrates mental illness; the internet that they Google their diagnosis etc; colleges promote these diagnoses to young people In some cases helped many people get off serious psychotropic drugs that were destroying their minds. I totally agree with everything you’ve said and I encourage everyone to pay close attention to everything you said and seek a Christian therapist that UPFRONT in their Informed Consent let’s you know that A BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW is what they are using to help them resolve their issues. I’m my 13 year experience, very very few people need medication and even fewer actually have a psychiatric mental illness.
People need to also know there are FAITHFUL and TRUE BELIEVERS that are therapists, psychologists and psychiatrists! We may be few and far between, but we EXIST and God uses US TOO in His kingdom! I know, because I am one of them!
Keep up the good work! We need more professionals like you
Thanks for sharing. Where in GA is the practice your associated with?
I'm curious too.@kennethmacgregor6427
❤
Thank God for the very few good doctors out there. I don’t trust many doctors at all.
I don't know if people truly understand how powerful of a word this is.
Praise God for His word
🙌🏾Amen! Jason can you say it louder for those in the back seats?!
it was sooooooo quiet in there. there was more listening than amening. sometimes thats actually good. But it takes courage to preach it. God Bless Voddie Baucham
He ones who do, never leave.
I truly do❤
Diagnosed as bi-polar for several years and medicated, I finally turned to Jesus. I gave Him my life whole heartedly and there were several verses that helps me.
‘Love the LORD your God with all your heart, MIND, and soul.’ When I learned I could use my mind, I was blown away.
Likewise Take each thought captive unto the Lord Jesus. It was possible! And the smaller the thought, the faster the healing.
Then, the parable of when a man cleans his house but doesn’t fill it, the demons come back even worse.
Of course, there were many more and 40 years later I’m still learning and renewing my mind.
Thank you for your teaching!
Thanks for listening
Amen! God is so so good
🙏🙏🙏🙏
What does that scripture mean filling the house
I struggle with severe anxiety, or I DID struggle with it before I was saved. Trusting in the Lord and having a relationship with Him, knowing he has a plan and will for my life, has helped it immensely. Amazing sermon! God Bless Voddie, he’s one of my favorites! Always delivering those truth bombs through Gods Word.
To God be the Glory
Amazing sermon Sir. You are 100% correct, on your PTS (Post Traumatic Stress), The D is dropped due to the fact we do not have a disorder, we have scars from things that no man should ever see. As a corrections officer for 22 years, Praise God he didn't allow me to finish the deed, instead he has lead me to Him, and I now understand that the "Powers and Principalities" are very much real, and those demons that are around us, Love to keep those images front and center to ultimately destroy you. My peace is graced to me through my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Thanks for listening
I have a similar story, also as a corrections officer. God has truly renewed my mind and it was because I believed scripture, specifically Romans 8:28 “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.”
I believed that regardless of the fact I had flashbacks every day for over 1 and a half years, I had nightmares regularly, lived in the past, struggled with guilt, I was constantly anxious and had trouble sleeping, and I viewed life as if every cave had a bear in it; I believed that someday, God would use it for my good, because I love God. I can say today that I’m the most healthy physically, spiritually, and mentally I’ve ever been. I have a wife who loves me like Jesus, and I have identical twins on the way. I’ve been blessed in everything, and I have helped so many people who have suffered similar things as a result of the sufferings I’ve been through. Thank you for the message, may God bless your ministry and your spirit and your family.
Jordan and Robert, thank you for your service. Maybe our most unappreciated service and unbelievably dangerous and difficult. Praise God for your salvation brothers and that you bring a Biblical worldview into that environment.
God bless you and thank you so much for your service!!
@@jordanshellabarger4865 good morning, a lot has happened since this response 😁 God has blessed me and my family with amazing miracles (from rebirth of my marriage to financial freedom) (no I'm not preaching the prosperity gospel) legitimate miracles. And due to His Grace so many doors have opened for me, I am going to Colorado for a Discipleship program in August, God has allowed me to speak more openly about the men and women of corrections who I am tasked to pursue and the truths of spiritual warfare. For 28 months (Dec 22,2020 - April 10,2023) I grew a beard, God needed me to separate the "old man" from the Unmovable Warrior for Christ, but at 0645ish Monday April 10th, God had other plans. I was given a snapshot of me from a dream I had at the beginning of March, (just so happens this is the time frame my wife and I started attending church together and our Miracles started), we were renewing our vows and it was clearly pointed out that I was clean shaven, so by 3:00 that afternoon, my beard was gone, I was set free to be who God was transforming me into (think Caterpillar to cocoon to butterfly) same creature with a brand new look. I absolutely love how He works. God bless 🙏🙏🙏 ❤️❤️❤️
The Bible is THE source of truth. It's the ONLY truth and it's continuously humbling and amazing how it addresses every single aspect of life. God is so good.
Thank you for sharing this.
Absolutely
EVERY, SINGLE ASPECT is the right -- everything we need is found in the Holy Word of God (stick with the KJV too, if you can). This is why our flesh and the enemy fight so hard to keep us from reading it, meditating on it and obeying it.
Amen
I really appreciate that Voddie Baucham talks about those difficult subjects. Much respect. God bless you.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and a Certified Lay Minister, and I approve this sermon. Well said. Amen Amen Amen Amen. --- Many good points but I'll just pick one to highlight. I really like when Dr. Baucham talks about how we expect that we aren't suppose to go through pain and we think that we must always medicate away the pain.
Thanks for listening
God says He disciplines every son He accepts. Why is getting our toes mashed by a sermon considered a bad thing. If He cares enough to confront you, then you are like Job and all the other real Christians. This is boot camp for a long life of giving glory.
God Bless you Pastor Voddie for speaking the truth. Years ago I suffered from severe depression and anxiety. It lasted a good 10-15 years. I had taken during this time every anti-depressant, anxiety and other mental illness medications you can think of and long story short I wasnt healed until I cried out to God for help and found my faith. Mental illness is a faith and/or sin problem. I can see that now. If you truly have faith in Jesus and are born again your mind will heal itself.
God healed me from panic attacks without any drugs. The drugs that I was taking for depression and panic attacks made my symptom worse. I stopped taking them after a few times. It took about 2.5 years till I got healed. I focus on growing my faith and trusting in God, and getting to know Him better. I did realize my mental illness was a product of many things, and one those things was my sexual immorality sins.
Amen. God bless you for your testimony.
Having been diagnosed with bipolar disorder for almost 20 years I looked to the illness not to God.
As a result I have had many different manic and depressive episodes, and two psychotic breaks. I have stopped taking the medicine for the hundredth time in February of this year and I have had the most peace filled, joyous days of my life.
I have never had clarity like this, and my mind is quiet, and my memory has improved.
What is difference in me not taking the medicine now and then, I really don’t think I was truly saved until now.
Sin is the result of all man's problems . God have granted to us everything pertaining to life and Godly living ..Pastor Baucham thank you for the truth of the word of God ..
Thank you Philip.
@@gfbc1689I dislike false teachers and the people who are gullible to easy beliverisim.
Amen
If a person breaks their leg, is this because they sin? Even animals and birds get depressed, break limbs, and suffer abuse, but they don't sin. A person born blind, born with a chronic disease, which they had before they grew old enough to commit a sin, can't be blamed for being blind, surely?
The whole world needs to hear this message thanks so much God bless
Amen. Thanks for listening
I happen to have a mental illness that they may not be able to pick up in a blood test but they can actually see on an MRI, my brain is physically misshapen. I trust God, I hold on to Jesus, I walk by the Spirit and I take my meds
I have been a psychiatric RN x 16 years and this is 100% facts.
An explosive expose'! The truth can be EARTHSHAKING!!
But, it is still, the truth.
Thank you, God.
Thank you, Rev Bauchum.
EXCELLENT, is all I can say.
"For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ".

Amen and Amen
Well halleluiah. You are absolutely THE FIRST Christian leader (in my 70+ years) I've EVER heard deal with the idea of mental/psychological issues as they relate to us Christian believers. Not having spiritual leaders to help me through diagnosed CPTSD (from an abusive marriage to a self-proclaimed "Christian" man) is why I have no time for church today. Bless you, Pastor. I pray much for leaders like you to enlighten us through God's Word. Bless you.
Praise God for His Grace and Mercy
I just went through the same thing and I'm praying for you. Jesus has us in his arms ❤
After childbirth I was diagnosed with antenatal depression. I was on medication for ten years and then we lost our income. I weaned myself of the goiter drug( supposedly helps on depression) and the anti-depression drugs slowly. Put my trust in Jesus. Lost my husband a couple of years ago and had such closeness to Jesus. Now I look back and I'm in awe that I didn't need drugs again in that difficult time.
Thanks for listening
Praise the Lord sister!
God bless you, Lillian!! Jesus is all we ever need and I am sorry for your loss. How are you doing today? I know just fine, as long as keep doing what you are doing and that is praying and staying in the Holy word of God!!
Thank You pastor Voddie, a precious Man of God sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ
Amen. Thank you, Kathleen.
I used to love and was fascinated with psychology and wanted to go to school to be a psychologist (not a psychiatrist). I was fascinated with personality disorders (that are not usually treated with drugs) but instead according to the APA insists there is no cure or treatment outside of extensive long term therapy that is usually unsuccessful.
When I read a book regarding a Biblical perspective on Narcissism it opened my eyes to the fact that most of when it comes to cluster B’s, there is a sin issue of insolent pride, selfishness, arrogance, pathological lying, lack of humanity, lack of empathy and compassion or care for others, a perverse form of love that does not come from God, self righteousness, rejection of accountability or sorrow for sinning against God and others…and the list goes on and on.
I thought my goodness! This isn’t a psychiatric issue, this is an issue of insolent pride and a hardened unrepentant heart!
How terrifying it is to truly acknowledge and accept that this can happen to any sinner who consistently refuses to listen to their God given conscious time and time again, and over the years refuses to repent out of Godly sorrow. Eventually and tragically one’s heart hardens to the point it takes a Nebuchadnezzar moment for God to pull them out of it.
Isn’t it horrific how the sin of greed will completely encourage individuals to exploit those who are also in sin believing that it’s out of Gods hands to deliver them from their sin and the hopelessness of “mental illness”. Greedy and corrupt pharmaceutical companies that push mass propaganda, and atheistic professionals and “experts” will one day soon be judged for their sins and crimes against humanity.
The consequences of refusing to accept or believe in our Lord Jesus Christ, and the perfect will of our Father in Heaven are absolute, eternal, and horrifying.
Lord have mercy on us.
Very good message in today's time where you take a pill for everything
To God be the Glory
"Whatever you're facing is not bigger than a dead Jesus. How dare you be hopeless." That's a powerful word.
One of the things I think of when I'm tempted to suicide is getting my first good look at Jesus just after I have thrown the life He gave me back in His face.
Moses mentioned this in " The Lord will afflict you with madness, blindness and confusion of mind." Deuteronomy 28v28 NIV
Soli Deo Gloria
Thank you for this sermon! So much of the world is deceived by this!!
🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
You are so welcome
It really is!
Yes, the world is deceived by this & too much of the church is too. Hard to believe.
Bless your heart. How awful. The person that was meant to protect and love you hurt you the worst. When I can’t eat or sleep because my body is remembering what happened to me when I was a child I go to Psalms. My agony is rightly expressed there. And I remember that God does comfort us in this life, and He promises that in Heaven all pain and suffering will end. I am praying for you!
Don’t underestimate fasting and prayer and asking for prayer from others. Make sure your elders know what you are battling. The evil one preys on those of us that were abused as children.
what a great sermon. Although I dont suffer from any mental disorders, um or at least I dont think I do hahaha, There was sooo much info I did not know about diagnosis of those disorders. I believe its important for Christians to understand this and very happy I listened to this sermon, as all his sermons
Thanks for listening and subscribing
Really eye-opening sermon for many. Surely our pride and rebellion brings gods judgement. We need to be watchful to avoid this situation. Thank God
I have no words, how this helped me. I bless the Lord and his word for He librates me from the lie. Lord bless voddie.
Me too! I felt chains turn to dust in hearing these truths. I’m so happy for you to be liberated!
Praise the Lord🙌🏽 for Pastor Voddie Baucham, Thank you Jesus
Amen
Thank you. I sent this message to my children. Please pray with me that this message will be heard and they will understand it. Or tries to.
Thanks for listening
Thank you for this sermon.
While I still struggle with certain things, the more I come to The Lord with them instead of "the council of the ungodly", or such, and the more I study The Word - the less I tend to struggle.
" Spoken Truth , Knowledge & Spiritual Revelation Beyond Measure "...!!!
It’s great to hear someone to preach about that. I have always said a psychologist has traded in their couch in for a prescription pad.
Thanks for listening
I heard this before. So glad you posted! Added to the favorites! Gods blessings to you all! And the ability to see His blessings in our struggles.
Amen. Thanks for listening.
Thank for reinforcing my belief in GOD thank you 🙏
Thank you for this sermon. We are an over medicated society. Instead of turning to the Lord we turn to a pill.
Thanks for listening
2nd time I've listened with great intent and still the sermon gives revelations of understanding and wisdom.. Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for our brother Voddie , may we all be driven out of our love for God, to make the same effort in understanding Gods Holy word. 🙏💗
Thanks for listening
I am not proud about having a mental illness. I do not boast about it. I do not know if I have a chemical imbalance or not. All I know is that I have suffered from depression for most of my adult life. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. People who have never experienced depression can never comprehend what it's like to be afflicted with it. The brain is an organ, just like the heart etc and things can and do go wrong. God does heal, but he doesn't choose to heal everybody, because he is sovereign and we don't know why he heals some and others he doesn't. I'm not quite sure what point Voddie was trying to make here. I respect him, but I came away after listening to this talk feeling dismayed? Lack of understanding? Perhaps not the right words. I am a faithful, born again Christian, I love the Lord, I have prayed for healing, but thusfar I have not been healed. Therefore, I have learned to bear my affliction because His strength is made perfect in my weakness. I am not more, or less of a Christian, just because I have chronic depression. I tried to disguise it for a long time especially around Christians, but now I can bear the fact that if I tell them the truth and if they decide to shun me, I am ok with that, for i am fearfully and wonderfully made. So Rev Baucham, I lovingly say to you, from one Christian to another, please do your homework because you and Rev MacArthur are seriously lacking in this space and you have not walked one day in my shoes.. God bless you
Per chulito- This is one of the greatest preachings I've ever heard. Thank you for standing for the Word of God and against the lies of the so-called medical industry we've all been accustomed into believing are the ONLY answer to "mental illness."
Much needed medicine for the Church. Thank you Voddie.
As Voddie says, "Psychiatry and psychology have never
cured anyone of anything nor do they claim to be able to".
They and the pharmaceutical companies create customers!!
If they actually helped they'd go out of business in a few months. To collect insurance payments they need to diagnose you even if that visit was 10 mins.
Thank you for the sermons. I love the books of: Samuel, Jeremiah and Daniel. Faith can do wonders.
Absolutely!
Love me some Voddie ❤. Truly gifted gentleman. I love the fact that he sticks to doctrine.
Solus Christus
This is a topic that should be discussed more often. It may be uncomfortable but it needs to happen.
This was so awesome. Those of us blessed to hear this sermon, may be use this wisdom to conduct our lives and help others come to the truth of God's word. Amen 🙏
Thanks for this message. I have been wondering for awhile now about how much of the mental illness was more likely a spiritual illness, it has more to do with unwillingness to listen to God, unwillingness of people to repent to God and to one another when they have sinned against someone, and an unwillingness to forgive. Unwillingness to follow God's word on how to live life. Allowing anger to rule our life. We want God to meet us on our terms instead of his terms.
This has blessed and convicted in me. LORD, thank you for showing me the error in my thinking.
Semper Reformanda
I am struggling with thoughts of unaliving myself. My 3 kids need me and I couldn’t imagine being without them I’m just so depleted. I’m a shell of who I used to be. I pray and I pray but I still wake up feeling hopeless, worthless and empty
By hearing this I understand that the human pride can create many demons. Before I came to Jesus Christ I was covered with sins and it was miserable way to live I cried all the time even back then when I was a little girl, it got worse in my teen years part of my adult life. I didn't have much of parents to talk to me because they where in a cult church that had their attention on lies. About 3 years ago I repented and gave my life to Jesus Christ now he leads my life and my father God takes good care of me mentally and physically. I don't cry continually or live in sin often but he always corrects me by his word.
Thanks for listening
I remember someone calling autism a demon and I'm like dude please that's a legit birth defect just like down syndrome.
Great sermon. It challenges what our hope is in.
Amen and praise God. Thanks for listening.
The most revolutionary modern sermon sermon I have ever heard. AMEN
Thanks for adding more teachings of the Bible through pastor Baucham. He’s got a way, down to earth but hard hitting and informative.
To God be the Glory
This! Agree, restoration is found IN Christ. 6 years ago I was diagnosed with severe anxiety, severe depression, Bipolar, narcissistic abuse, C-PTSD, SI. No meds helped me, and I tried it all. Started biblical counseling 4 years ago, got off ALL meds, and overtime… understanding who I am IN HIM, living FROM His indwelling Spirit in me, no longer living from a soul level, TRANSFORMATION took place, sanctification is life long. I am SO much better. All glory to God! He used it all, and continues, to humble me and transform me into His image, and I am 💯 willing to let Him.
This is such an important message just like the rest. I have a child with autism and teacher and doctor pushing for me to medicate my child. He is not violent. But any behaviour that is not their normal must be medicated. I refuse.
WOW! Never heard this explained like this before. Father God thank you for spiritually blessing Pastor Baucham to share these truisms with us today. Great message!
Wonderful!
This is so good! I hope brother Voddie writes a book about this at some point.
Thank you
There have been books and resources and even now training around this which is becoming very good now. Look up Biblical counselling which definitely follows this same reasoning that mental issues are most often spiritual issues, where a trained counsellor will sit down with an individual and find out with them where exactly their spiritual problems are and actually address them with the gospel.
I had a really good Psych professor who was way too honest with us about the limitations of the field, and she did such a thorough job explaining just how difficult most of these theories are to actually test in a controlled experiment. I was a math major, and the way she explained it made me come up with a great analogy in my own mind. Psychology is to Science as Statistics is to Mathematics!
Thanks for listening
Thank you for this message. I needed to hear this. God is sooooo good in his timing.
Dr. Baucham, this was an eye-opening perspective. Thank you for your wisdom.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I am a Hospital chaplain in New Zealand . Doctors here often refer Chaplians to meet with patients in our mental heath unit because they know there is a spiritual component to people Outlook and often there illness itself. This is not a perfect system but at least it is acknowledged as importance.
Thanks for listening
Very difficult topic and associated sub-topics handled unabashedly and intelligently by a humble servant of our Lord. Thanking God for the undiluted truth of His Word. 💜✝️💜
He is always a blessing. There was insight into mental unhealthiness. And yet, for me, more questions.😕
I’ve experienced everything he’s talking about with these doctors and medication ! Definitely the truth !
Thank you, thank you so much Pastor for this. Sharing with my friends & family. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thanks for listening

Thank you, very educational, I hate all about psiquitric, my brother committed suicide after 15 years of taking psiquitric drugs, in one of his final days he received Jesus, but still he was under so much drugs, and half of the time he acted like a zombie, so sad 😭 it's been a year since he left us.
My condolences.
Big Pharma drives mad and murders
Sorry to hear
I know I'm not supposed to, but Voddie is the closest thing to an idol I've ever had. I still went and checked his claims and sure enough everything he said is true. I try to make sure I never take anything he says with blind faith. Voddie has been revolutionary in my life. May God bless this man for all the days of his life and his children's lives.
Thank you

I thank God for you Dr. Baucham!
Thank you so much. I will keep this sermon available so I may listen again.
Thanks for listening
This is mind blowing sermon!

Am so so so glad to hear the myths exposed for what it is.....which is that shrinks are greater than God. .
Thank you Pastor Voddie Beauchamp...keeping Speaking Gods truth.

Amazing testimony. You did the work!!
There is no pathway back from a diagnosis. The Lord is going to create one within me, however. Amen !
Thanks for listening
This is the most comprehensive sermon I’ve ever heard dismissing the fallacy of psychology the made-up clinical term called, ‘chemical imbalance’, my sister was first diagnosed with this fallacious lie. From that diagnosis, she became a lab rat junkie for the rest of her life. Why did I call her a lab rat junkie it is because she was hooked on psychotropic drugs to suppress what was going on with her spiritually and there is no remedy for spiritual problems. Consequently, my sister died from those very drugs which were to suppress her emotions into a catatonic state of mind. My sister was highly intelligent many times outsmarting her clinicians and eventually, she became revolted by the constant barrage of different types of meds which became a vicious monotonous cycle for which she stopped taking the lab-tested chemicals, a huge mistake that took her life. I've learned from observation, once you intake this chemical-poisoning substance, you are hooked for life, there is no turning back.
My sister died a horrible death just because she discontinued her medication therapy.
Wow, that is terrible. So sorry to hear
Thank you for sharing this. This is thought provoking ❤

Mom always told us "if you feel depressed, go for a walk". She was absolutely correct. Fresh air, increase you heart rate, your body creates endorphins that most definitely lift you up. Spend the time speaking to the Lord and your right as rain.
Thanks for Listening
That never worked for me because I was too depressed to even get out of bed. I didn't even want to go outside. The couple times I actually did do it, i got scared and couldn't wait to get back home.
@@Americanwoman74the best thing is to NEVER let anyone shame you in your process towards healing! There can be spiritual issues but very much physical too and to ignore that is just inexperience and ignorance in my opinion. I do believe we need much better help with how doctors doctor in this field but to say we can go for a walk and snap out is just beyond words. Anyways I struggle with sleeping also and sometimes my words fail me but I can relate with you although I haven’t experienced the same trauma but just wanted to say I see you and supportive of you and would never want someone to make you feel as though you didn’t pray hard enough or didn’t get saved etc. take care and GOD bless!
When I think about it that so true teach us more pastor
This message gave me pure confirmation. Thank you so much (love you more)
I really think that mental illness is where the spiritual mental & emotional intersect with the physical. Worldview & strongholds manifesting in the mind and body.
WOW Pastor Baucham this is INCREDIBLELY True and much of what U said has TAUGHT me and now makes me rethink certain meds I’m on …, THANK YOU GOD for this Man of GOD YOU gave us 🙏🏽📖❤️✝️🔥☮️

Having Hashimoto's autoimmune thyroid disease, causes me severe depression when the thyroid is underactive, and severe anxiety when overactive. Having Vitamin D blood levels drop way down in the winter months, causes major depression. Having very low Ferritin levels, causes severe depression. Having very low Vitamin B12 levels, causes terrible depression. Only when my blood levels are back to normal, due to adequate thyroid hormone replacement, my Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D levels are increased, and my Ferritin levels are massively increased via iron infusions, am I free of depression and anxiety. Being sent to a psychiatrist who labelled me as having major depression, and being prescribed antidepressants, did absolutely nothing to help or improve, my depression. The depression I suffer from during the recurring medical condition episodes, is as a direct result of these four physiological, medical conditions I live with. Other causes of the symptoms of depression, can be heart disease, cancer, diabetes and mitral valve disease. Yes, I am a sinner saved by the grace of the Lord God Almighty, and I don't believe I have unconfessed sin in my life. I am saved by the grace of God, through faith, by the kind intention of His will. I have never read in His written word, that sickness and ill health will never happen to God's people, once they are saved. To God be the glory! Amen!!!
Praise the Lord for this wonderful sermon.
Amen. Thanks for listening
Like so many people I was (mis)diagnosed with not only SAD and Anxiety disorder but Chemical-imbalance which has been formerly known as alcoholism/drug addiction, I fell into the trap of accepting the "fact" that I'm going to die a heroin addict and an alcoholic, tossed my career, all my possessions, marriage, relationship with my loved ones, down the drain to become a career "street pharmacist". I traded my brother's and sisters marriages, my grandparents funerals, quality time with my close friends and loved ones for a circular-life fueled by addiction, violence, pain, anger, withdrawal and blaming others for the mistakes I made. Meanwhile God was patiently waiting and protecting me... Although it took me well over 10 years, I gave up the self-reliant lifestyle to our Lord Jesus Christ and my dad at least got to see his son come home before he passed from a heart-attack in my hands on the bathroom floor. Although I really, really miss him, I can't wait to join him in praising God for everything good He has done in my life...
Bless you!! ❤❤
@@hza1203 Thank you, and may the Lord Jesus Christ bless you abundantly as well.

I was diagnosed with a few things before I found my relationship with God. As He helped me to grow little by little those things went away. I believe He cured me. I know He did. I did have to work through a lot of childhood trauma. Today, I'm so in love with my God. Not just for curing me of those awful things. But, for showing me How much He loves me and renewing my mind. I never knew I could be content and know true joy that only comes from God. Now, I've learned to put Him above everyone and everything. Even my husband and children. Without God first in my life, I couldn't be my best for the ones I love. I'm not perfect and NEVER will be. But, as long as I have my God, I'll be all right ❤❤❤

Absolutely amazing!!
I love everything about what is said here.
Thanks for listening
Powerful message.
Amen
I was there for 6 years. The diagnosis was epically wrong. However, I believed medicine would work. Medicine helped clear my mind long enough to allow the Grace of the Holy, to Grace me with His Devine Love! Which in turn, granted me access to my Lord Jesus Christ and to the Heavenly Father. My life today, I dedicate to my Holy Trinity. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a Catholic. But, I daily strength from the Father, Son & Holy Spirit. Hallelujah, praise God!!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️
AMEN GLORY TO GOD OUR ALL & ALL.
I really needed to hear this because I was thinking of going on anti anxiety medication. I just need to immerse myself into God’s word. Thank you Pastor Voddie for this wonderful sermon.
So much can be done by slowly improving your life, and diet, and using aromatherapy, and time in nature, and being creative. Happiness is not handed to us. We have to find it and that is easier for some than others. I am praying for you
@hza1203 thank you very much!!
