I been in a dark place from loosing my job 5 days before Thanksgiving and to boot im a single mom. I was sitting in a ball of fear and still a job has not yet presented it self. But the Lord saw to it that i got a temp job for a day and that 1 job payed for my little boys Christmas presents. AMEN
Thank you Jesus. I'm there right now with the job situation. If we do not grow weary in do season we will reap a harvest. I've put in many applications, but God has a plan. He has not forgotten me. My confidence is very low. But we walk my faith and not by sight. We trust in the Lord and lean not on our own understanding.
Don't give up I have been there God is opening a new door for you and when the time comes take it. Continue to pray on your knees. He wants you to call on him when your in your darkestest time. When not in the dark give thanks to him each morning your eyes open. It works. God bless you
Amen I've been getting depressed after loosing the place I live my sister who own the home along with my little sister. Now I no longer have a place since my older sister passed away. I pray the Lord has mercy on me and helps me as I go through this obstacle. I'm in prayer I know He is with me always today and tomorrow but my tears just continue. I've asked for prayer warriors to get me through. God give me strength to endure. Amen
I suffer from depression everyday.....But.....everyday i preach the gospel to myself....I remind myself who I am in Christ. And I Thank the Lord for every promise in his Word....I Thank him for Loving me, guiding my steps, I Thank him that because the blood of Christ washes me, and I can come boldly to the throne with my petition. If you are suffering too....try it....❤
Amen. G-d is good. Praise G-d. Every day I pray that G-d keeps me and draws me to stay in His will. To help me overcome my burdens. To overcome this place of limbo and stuckness. I pray to see and I pray to be joyful in our L-rd I pray this depression be removed from me in Jesus' namr. Amen.

I've suffered from chronic depression for going on 4 yrs since I lost my only daughter. I have been to therapy but still struggle. I don't share this with my church family for the very reason pastor mentioned, I don't want to be judged or considered not right with the Lord. I trust the Lord and hold fast to my salvation. So, this message was definitely for me.
I am so sorry for the loss of your daughter. I pray for any mother or father that has to go through the pain of losing a child. May God comfort you in Jesus name.
_By design rather than default I have been here the last 5 years. As I stand in the kitchen under muffled weeping, the 6 yr old boy I took in at birth, from the living room gently says, "God has wings", to which I replied, "No baby. He doesn't". He replied, "Psalm 91 says He does". My muffled weeping broke into laughter as I ran to hug & tell him, "yes, YES HE DOES buddy and we are hid under His wings. Thank you so much for reminding me". Holy Spirit will testify to this truth. Maranatha_
I'm in a faith based rehab and have to watch a sermon every Sunday. I suggested this video for the women to watch this morning and they all loved it. A lot of us dealing with depression and trauma were really touched by this message. Thank you God for finding me in a drug treatment center of all places, and thank you for 5 months of recovery ❤️
Yes, we live in a fallen world. Thank you fir reminding me. I can and do feel like such a huge failure in life because of my failed relationships which has it's root in evil from my beginning here on earth. I pray in Jesus' name pluck out any plant and root that is not of the Father. Amen. I must remember to lean on G-d's word and not my own understanding and He will make stright my path. Amen. Be blessed go in Christ. He is the way.
Just a few hours ago I begged God to take my life because I can't stop crying witnessing all the evil swarming and so many people refusing knowledge, saying they don't want to hear it, they don't care. Thank you so much for explaining what I go through, as do so many others. We just don't know of each other. I place all my trust in Yahshua/Jesus no matter what. Amen and Amen,
Iam here with you, it's hard to see his light sometimes here on earth when it gets so dark.But one of my favorite songs lyrics are "even when I don't feel you working your working, even when I don't see you working, your working.Way maker:promise keeper, you are working. We all will be in paradise with Jesus and the angels soon but let's be his hands and his feet while we are here.
He loves Us focus on God not what you can't change but through prayer and fasting God changes all things because he can if We stay in alignment with him . He said in John greater am I in you then he that's in the World. He also said in Isaiah no form or Weapon. Psalms 91 please read it and Psalms 23.Pleading the blood for you declare it and decreeing it and ask him to remember you.
I have had depression since childhood. I was conditioned that way. No father. Mother was not affectionate or loving. Everything was my fault. Even counseling & antidepressants didn't keep me from trying to commit suicide multiple times. It took the Holy Spirit guiding me to my church before things began to change. The love, acceptance & prayers of my church family were a healing balm to my broken spirit. The love of my Savior, Jesus Christ saved me from myself! I am no longer on medication. I still struggle at times, but I am active in my church & loving life. Praise God for his love & mercy....I am finally happy!😅❤
@aliciahernandez6203 I've been at this church 5 years now. It's taken some time for it to sink in that God loved me so much that He gave His only son for me. Jesus went to the cross willingly so that I could have life. It's hard to imagine that kind of love.
I would love to pray for you. I don't know you but I declare that you are loved with an everlasting love and I decree that you are protected by God and Holy Spirit. Jesus is always with you and in your heart.
I pray you have gotten past your crying. This happened to me when I was in my 40s and I finally called upon the Lord to take away my pain and if he would hug me because I need a hug and as I finished praying he hugged me the feeling was so comforting. That day I promised to follow him then I danced for him went outside looked to the heavens and promised to follow him all the days of my life.
I am usually depressed in the winter after Christmas when it is cold. Compounding this is the loss of my mother brother uncle and 3 good friends. I try to stay positive and prayer seems to be the only thing which saves me!!!
Most people usually do to some degree after all the Christmas cheer and gifts are gone. I tried one Christmas without gifts under the tree at all and it was the best Christmas I ever had so I do it repeatedly now. I tell my family and friends not to buy gifts for me as I will not be buying any myself and don't want them to feel obligated. When I did return to buying gifts on other years I learned from C.S. Lewis who said he only buys gifts for children. So with adults I still keep the no gifts understanding. I stay out of the stores during December. Instead of fighting for parking places in the crowds I can stay home and enjoy my Christmas tree or Christmas music and do some kind things for others. I don't have to deal with the rush and bad attitudes of people fighting each other for the items on the shelf running out due to sales. On Christmas morning I read from the Bible the story of the nativity and sing hymns of praise for the birth of God's Son and our Savior. I also extend Christmas into the twelve days of Christmas, thanking God for the Gift of His Son each day,, doing a kindness for myself or for others. I also celebrate Little Christmas on January 6th as some in Europe do, as I had a dear relative who lived there in Alpine villages and taught me to love it. My Christmas carries all the way through January and it's more immaterial than material. I also have plenty more time to spend with friends and family since I don't spend time shopping for it. The extra fellowship is great, and I like knowing that store employees don't have to work extra hours during the season on my account. I never get that depression I used to have after Christmas that depended on shopping and a pile of gifts under the tree.
Depression is definitely not something to mess with!! It is your enemy! I have been fighting it since 2020…thankfully I have a doctor and therapist working to help me get on the right meds. It’s so hard and I am praying for everyone and anyone who suffers from it! Please get help! ❤
I'm Grateful You Trust in God And Consulted A Doctor and Therapist As Well.People Tend To Forget That They Are Our Gifts From God.I Am Very Happy For You And You Will Continue To Thrive❤❤❤
I have suffered with depression, anxiety and panic most my life, to make things worse I thought I deserved it, Thank you Pastor Jeremiah for sharing this and breaking down all the different types I needed this!❤❤❤
I know how you feel, I have suffered all my life on and off with anxiety and depression. You are not alone in your feelings, even though you probably feel like you are. I will pray for you. God loves you! I wish I knew you and could talk to you and give you a hug.
I’m a black sheep in my family. Never felt like I belonged. Never learned how to cope! I was baptized in 2015. Went strong with learning about the Bible and how it works. Until about 4 years ago I quit. Things were not adding up and with lack of support and understanding I abandoned the only true love I had ever known! God loves us all!❤ We have two different spirit the Flesh/ and the Holy Spirit. I realize that it’s a constant Battle that we have to endure and Believe that God will see us through! My opinion only. I’ve been listening to Dr. Jeremiah and other sermons that capture my attention and I came up with this thought! I’m going back to my original plan and with the Lords Will he will be there to help me through. In Jesus Christ Name I pray Amen. 🙏
Oh thank you. I have such a testimony, I should dance. But like you say, sometimes rocks make us stumble..Ha no, God still right here. I pray for smiles, and true heartfelt Christ love your way. Smile Jesus nails gone, scars there, but we carry ours too. Only because He is right here…in name of Jesus, thank you.
God bless you, I feel this myself.But God knows our struggle and even when you put the Bible down he was working in you.There are no conditions of God's love only that you yield to his son and say Jesus have your way.Whenever I feel those feelings I just God, I've had enough, have your way in me.Praying for you always,amen
Thank you so very much for this sermon. I have depression and anxiety so very bad. I admit I am struggling very bad right now. Actually I'm scared because I can't seem to get past it. I'm all alone and have no family, but I do have a church family. Thank you for speaking the truth about depression/anxiety. So many people don't understand and never will ...actually I pray they never know. I feel so alone and so weak and constantly ask myself what did I do to deserve this God. I plead for Him to help me get thru this and feel better soon. But so far no answer. Would you please pray for me to be delivered from this. I love the Lord and I know He will see me thru but I'm so alone and feel so scared right now. Thank you so very much for this sermon and understanding and not putting people down who suffer. God bless you.
Oh, you are so precious to God. The study of neurology is in many ways in its infancy . . . but advances are being made every day. There’s hope. If you broke your arm you’d go to a doctor. Somehow the stigma upon anxiety/depression keeps the sick in their closets. I encourage you to see your physician or psychiatrist . . . seratonin and dopamine depletion is treatable.
Seems like I’ve suffered from depression/anxiety my whole life. I’m on antidepressants and I’m somewhat better, but I still battle with it. One counselor I went to said, “it’s like a lion at the door”; that helped me. You have to fight it. I know that getting outside walking, etc. helps; walking, etc. I’m trying to talk to God all the time, and memorizing encouraging scripture; and listening to praise music… I’ll be praying…
I finally had to seek my Dr help & it did assist I also relished in our promise & love book, our Bible. I ask God to rebuke the enemy cover me in Jesus blood. I also worked in forgive all who I had not forgiven. Pray don’t cease, day & night, read the word, Boldly study. I still struggle but on the journey I’m getting better much better. I’m sharing bc I’ve been there but victory every day more and more. Joy will come. Love You ❤ God Love You.
Depression has been part of my life as far back as I can recall. No doctor did anything til I was told I have fibromyalgia. I take a pill at night and one in the morning.. Between the fibromyalgia, arthritis, degeratve disc...I had to retire last year...I had a lot of falls. Videos (teachings) like this help so much. Thank you Dr. Jeremiah.
Yes, our relationship with Jesus is closer as we surrender more to him. When I am depleted I say "I choose Jesus" and hold on waiting for his strength. We have to hold on while the storm tries to disable us from his grip. He wont let us go. Trust him even when it is hard. Let him save us through it.
My wife has severe bouts with Dep. and BPD. I am not helping this because I am not always a good spouse. I trust God, though I do, trouble lives inside our marriage. I have faith but bad days come often and come hard.
@@badkneesone🙏🙏💕😔 Keep praying and listen to ministers who preach the Bible. Find a church that has true belief of the Bible. Be sure you are right with God. Pray for your wife and for yourself to change. Be thankful and thank God for blessings. I deal with depression over 30 years, meds help but God is better. I have lost my husband, my son, my dearest sister, and precious mother within a 5 year period and am totally alone except for God and wonderful friends. You please don't give up, keep praying. Don't give up. 🙏
This was a timely message. I am struggling with depression which I think comes from a pill that has been prescribed for prevention of seizures. I don’t sleep well and that does not help with depression. I like his suggestions like pushing yourself to do things you don’t feel like doing, reading the bible when you don’t feel like it etc. Quoting scripture helps: the joy of the Lord is my strength among others and listening to hymns.
This message was right on time. I had recently been asking God why I lost my job. I recently got mad at God and asked him what I did to deserve it when I'm a hard worker. I'm still pushing forward. I haven't given up completely. This message was comforting. Thank you Pastor David Jeremiah
I have been feeling this way last few days , I am wondering that exactly why am I not joyful and happy , I feel lost and feel a lack of the spirit I feel scared and confused
I have been battling depression for nearly a decade. My husband is a kind man but is selfish with his time. My only child is on the autism spectrum. My family is full of dysfunction. I am so lonely. I find that women in most churches I have gone to are very clickie they don't seem interested in anyone new. I feel completely alone here. I cannot wait to be with Jesus
I understand your situation. Your husband sounds very much like mine, totally thoughtless and self centred yet kind and willing to help others who ask. It's been 32 years of grief!
yes. Ive tried to join groups in church. I genuinely think that in their blessed lives have no idea of such things. Beautifully dressed, perfect hair and pursed lips - I leave feeling cold.
@@fullofhope2222 is there another couple of churches near you could try 🤓 they might be more welcoming. I stayed 10 years in a church and made no real friends, too cliquey. Never again 😂
So true some people think depression has a on and off button but not I turn to bad things trying to feel better it doesn't help but i keep on doing bad i know im wrong
My father lost his first born son at a young age of 36 and he suffers greatly and his close with God.Ill pray for you when I pray for my father's peace❤god bless you
The Lord is close to the broken hearted and heals... I can testify to this.. Thank you Jesus that I can glory be to God it is all by his loving grace I am able to write this text today.. I called he heard he answered... not until after 3 yrs of misery but he did. He saved me when it felt like it was over.. He loves us all so much and will never leave you or forsake you EVER! ❤
While dealing with depression I was told by those in my church that I was depressed because I had weak faith. I needed to pray, asking God to increase my faith and I’d get better. Also, that if I were a “real Christian” I wouldn’t be depressed. I felt such guilt!!! I didn’t know how to feel how to deal with what I had been told. No one was willing to help me….they mostly told me that seeking professional help was a sign of weakness 🙁☹️😢. I eventually left that church….I did seek professional help and I did recover. It has taken years, but I’m soooo much better than I was those 23 years ago. My depression was the result of having been raised in an abusive dysfunctional household, by a mother who is a malignant narcissist and a father who allowed her to run her own agenda. I eventually relocated and found a church that teaches the truth, and is full of loving folks that became my family ❤️🫶🏽☺️. Thank you Pastor Jeremiah for all you do. I watch you daily and am always encouraged by you ministry.
Dr. Jeremiah, how I deeply needed to hear this, God is so good in pointing me in your direction. The shame I've experienced coupled with external condemnation has been overwhelming...after telling a pastor's wife I lived with depression and take medication, she questioned my salvation...the "church" has been very cruel and misinformed. But your words, Dr. Jeremiah, will always stay with me and will be passed onto others that struggle. Thank you for your ministry 🙏
I am 58 years old and I have suffered from Clinical Depression most of my life, I have trusted in the LORD since I was 21. I thought when I came to HIM that it would go away (the depression). He did not take away my thorn but HE gives me the grace and peace and mercy to fight thru it every time. I've witnessed several of my friends be overtaken and lose there battles. My heart is so tender for those who suffer. This video has been one of the spot on best I've ever heard. Dr. Jeremiah nails it! I feel like I am in good company with King David, Moses, Elijah and Job. My Redeemer truly does live!!! Thank you Dr. Jeremiah!! The coping points you describe are perfect and you presented your message in the most no threatening, empathetic way I've ever heard. And quite Godincidnentally "The Fugitive" is my favorite movie and I watch it every chance I get! 😄
And God reminds me all the godly nen mentioned, Davis, Moses, Elijah... were serving the Lord, may we be about giving God the glory, going out preaching the word and serving one another in love, NT, I need be faithful in these areas also❤
What if my depression comes from lonliness. Lonliness is about equal to depression. I am saved but do desire to meet a special companion. Ive been alone a very long time and its gotten to an unbearable place. I relate to this messege, the fight to rise above theses feelings seems almost impossible. To know the Lord's return is near is the greatest comfort i have. Praise His Holy Name. 😇
@@kimmefford2814 kim I will be praying for you. God will give us what we need when we need it. But we are human and do desire to have someone here with us in the natural. But the sufferings here on earth are temporal praise God!!! Know that you are in my prayers..love in Christ.
Faithful is God . He promises you a mate. I declare a mate for you and Kim and my son. A mate that will accept you for who you are and have eyes only for you in Jesus’ name. Also you will have eyes only for the your mate. PraiseGod for His faithfulness towards you!! Amen and amen.
I suffer with clinical depression. A chemical imbalance in my brain. Even with medication I get depressed. I am so happy Dr. Jeremiah addressed this issue and provided not only insight but answers and help as well. I love the sound of compassion and the gentleness in his voice.
Depression comes upon us through periods in our lives when grief and loss hit us when we are striving to be our best do our best and continue to suffer and struggle with adversities in spite of our efforts to live a godly life! We are like children when things are not going our way when our lives are under extreme difficulties and it seems there's no end to it! That is the point at which we are aware of our own weakness and our need for the Love of Jesus and his plan over our life! We can pray for release but in the end our suffering brings glory to God and usually passes in time with a renewed sense of purpose! We persevere and look back on those seemingly impossible trials and realize God is always always on our side!
Deut 31:6 Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”:
What doctors call Depression today is really extreme Grief where you feel defeated .. but when God is in you he rises you up like Job, Jesus, and all those in the holy scriptures that felt overwhelming grief and loss🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏
You can call it Depression or Grief or Melancholy. The name doesn't really matter, you still feel miserable and dejected. Not everyone is as strong as Job, many people just give up.
I fight the Good fight every single day I keep my Faith and no more Fear we have our moments seeing how evil the world is and what is happening in our Presence but Remember God is with you every single day God Bless you all.
I am so glad to hear this sermon as I have suffered with depression many times and as a Christian felt so condemned when I heard a pastor say that no bible believing christian should suffer with depression. Also that you aren't healed that you don't have enough faith. I was diagnosed with clinical depression many years ago and am presently on an antidepressant. It is the worse feeling in the world and I would never wish this on even my worst enemy.
Trust in the lord with all your heart lean not on your own understanding in all your ways acknowledge him not you but him the lord and he will make your path straight amen
❤ My 22 year old grandson committed suicide and it's a terrible feeling to deal with. Family and friends are suffering and some with depression. I really appreciate this sermon Dr. Jeremiah and pray that the Lord blesses you over and over again. I'll share this and hope it helps a lot of people. Thank you!!!😊
Thank you so much from here in 🇬🇧 my pastor doesn’t believe Christian can be depressed if they are new creatures in Christ. It makes me feel so condemned 😢 this is light for me 🙏🏽🙏🏽🕊🤍
Oh Salina , I'm so sorry you feel abandoned by your church , it's not right ,I've not known depression but feel so much for those that do . Sending so much love to you x uk also ❤🙏
In Christ lift off his depression. May he find the Doctor or other medical or nonmedical specialist to get at the root of his cause of depression. May he find the Will and strength to look upon whatever is good and true according to our Father's good words in the Bible. May the curtains of darkness be removed. In Christ's name amen.
I was going through a very difficult situation. One night I broke down crying,😮❤ my face wet with tears I asked for understanding. I suddenly stopped my tears as the holy spirit whispered in my ear, IF IT WERE NOT FOR TROUBLES, THERE WOULD BE NO NEED FOR ANGELS. A PEACE CAME OVER ME AND I IMMEDIATELY FELL ASLEEP. GODS AMAZING GRACE SET ME FREE FROM MYSELF.❤❤😇
I have been suffering with anxiety, panic attacks and depression all of my life. This last year has been the worst. I am a widow of 3 years, and my daughter is busy…so I’m alone all the time. I don’t drive, or know anyone around me. I feel bereft. I listen to sermons, I cry out to the Lord, I cry for help, but hear only silence. 💔💔💔
@@carliebeau5329 Thank you Carlie. I’m doing better the last few days. I’m waiting on the Lord, and don’t always do that well. I’m realizing that I need to stay attached to Jesus, and in worship. It changes the atmosphere for sure. But thank you so much, is there anything I can pray about for you? I would be honored to do that! 💖🕊️💖
I recently just went through a break up after being with somebody for nine years and a toxic relationship. I decided to get out of it and live life with God like I always have but I want peace and not abusive relationship. I started getting depressed tonight and I haven’t been in a depressed situation in many years. Funny how God had Dr. David Jeremiah do the sermon and has uplifted me. I live in Belton Missouri, which is close to Kansas City Missouri. I sure wish I would’ve known Dr. David Jeremiah was preaching here. I would’ve loved to seen him my dream someday is to hear him in person to give a sermon. Again, thank you so much for the message tonight. It helped me out immensely.
Whoever is reading this please pray for me and my kids and my mental sick wife 😢. Depression is killing me slowly and I have been praying since but i am loosing hope.Thank you and God bless you all ❤.
Do not loose hope, God is never to late. Trust in God . And never let your Faith in Jesus died for you . Put in son songs Of Faith and sing along , even IF its difficult. God bless you and keep you. The savior lives💔❤️🩹❤️🙏🏼
This was meant for me to listen, honestly. I went from listening to last Sunday my church message to Dr. Jeremiah's Turning Point message and tears were rolling down my face because I do suffer from depression. I won't go into my detail of my depression but I believe God had never left me, he knows me and importantly loves me. I take one day at a time and trust God in my depression. It is very true Dr.Jeremiah when you said to take our bibles and read. We can be woken early hours or at hours when we get our depression low that reading Gods Word is the book to pick up. Don't know when my depression will stop but Gods truth is with me forever. He has never left me.
I struggled with depression at once,but the lord took it away after crying everyday and year and seeking him through prayer and fasting.i woke up Happy one day.i don't tell you that i don't have trials and tribulations because I do as everyone does.but i try to stay prayed up and in the word.amen
Thank you David, the past 5 years have been very difficult, one disappointment to the next. I am almost 60 and struggling to find and keep work. I’ve gone from a successful executive to taking work to just pay the bills. 27:41 Praying for a turn a round.
I too struggle with severe depression on a daily basis. I am fighting a war in my mind. I am also bipolar ( depression type) Domestic Violence left me struggling with traumatic event causing ptsd, brain damage and surgery.The left frontal removed. Years ago I fled to a DV shelter raised 3 children alone left with mental and physical health problems in and out of hospitals. I now have 5 grandchildren in which 3 live with me. Honest to God, I do struggling to “ be content/ happy and often think why am I alive when I suffer daily with horrific dark thoughts of dying. Its luke I actually look forward to going to sleep forever so I don’t have to deal with myself. My mental and physical illnesses torment me. It matters none that I am blessed with the grandchildren I model, actress on occasion when I am able work.I am considered disabled.I am barely getting by. I understand the depression life as I am a perfect example of how debilitating it is. I pray everyday and night just to keep sane. I tremble with fear not of dying but my thoughts of darkness that takes over my body mind and soul. I am tired. I am sad and quiet miserable. I feel so alone surrounded by my loved ones. I listen to this message every night to try to calm my nerves to sleep.
God bless you. I read your comment. Fight with all you might. Give it to God. ASK ASK ASK Jesus will help you. I pray you get peace and relaxation for your body peace for your mind. The Bible is magic Read it. Love you as a sister in Christ
There's no one I can trust who I could tell; medical doctoring hasn't helped; I seek God daily but rarely find him and miss him so much. I continue to visit in our nursing home as I've done for a decade but I have no family, have lost my home & friends and the nights can be so long. Prayers for me to be strengthened in my efforts to be forward looking and have a cheerful spirit would be very appreciated.
I really needed to hear this. I'm going through medical procedures and needed strength. I did have my pity party. But I'm not going to suffer half as much like the believers of God in the Bible. All things are possible through and with God. I AM READY.
My son Aaron is suffering very debilitating depression. He gave his life to the Lord years ago but has for most of it walked his own path and I do not think he knows the Lord. I'm not even sure he is saved. Please pray for him. God bless you all x
Very touching message Poster David Jeremiah I am depressed lately myself everything going not good in my favor but I will hold on to the bread of life 🙏
Like Job I've lost everyone I love. It's been 3 yrs since I lost my mother. She was my best friend and was a wonderful mom. I don't have a car anymore b/c I had to pay the bills . Been stuck in this house for over a year now alone. At least I've got my home and SS retirement and food. And of course God is with my everyday.
This was exactly what I needed to hear this morning while I am deep in depression. I feel like I have been left alone and in a scary place but you helped me so much. I have been going through so much lately that it seems too much to deal with. “God puts his children in the dark sometimes because he is up to something” this message really gives me hope. I have tried medication in the past but it never helped me enough. I pray hard and try to love myself. Thank you so much for the word of God.
"Perfect Agape Love casts out all fear , for fear has to do with torment" Learn to accept God's perfect love towards you , no matter how you feel . His love never changes . 😊
There fore now there is no condemnation for those who are in christ jesus we are over comers pray for all who are suffering depression be healed in Jesus name
Thank you dr. David Jeremiah for these teachings. My prayers are for healing and comfort and for all of us dealing with this debilitating depression. 🙏🩷
I need prayers for God to heal the pain in my knee! And I also keep praying for God to perform a miracle to my body to help me shed some weight so I can be healthy again and in fine shape so I can do work for God at church and to volunteer and get a partime job!
Praying for my only son;After his two daughters were moved so far away that we have not saw them noe spoke with them for 8yrs;praying for their mother that married another woman and praying that God will lift this burden from my son's heavy heart;In Jesus name;Amen
❤ Amen , God does Answer Prayers. I know for sure because God answer my prayers night as I was going down a big mountain in a total White in a Snowstorm. I had no control of the vehicle, God had Control. I could see anything past the windshield. God answer my Prayers, Amen ❤. 😢
David Jeremiah is a tremendous Pastor Ready, Steady, Calm, at Peace with Jesus Christ our Savior. You will walk away at peace and in obedience after his sermon. Give Him a listen through him.
@DavidJeremiah Dr.Jeremiah you have brought me back to god in so many ways and I thank my father(my dad) for guiding me to you. Your words reach me like no other and all I can do is thank god for you in prayer. I was addicted for 12 years and now been clean for 8 years and still suffer sometimes in silence but find my peace in god.
I discovered Dr Jeremiah on his radio ministry Turning Point as student in the early 1980s when I was an undergraduate at. Kingston University England. I am so happy to hear this reassuringly bible-centered, unchanging and faithful voice again. Thank you dear Lord for starting to answer my question "What next and what is the way forward?". I am listening, LORD.
I've been struggling with depression so long. No one has any ideal what I'm going through. It's God's grace that's keeping me day in and day out. I have no one to reach out to. I don't know what to do at this point. I am 64 years old, widowed with no children. I'm broken. Please pray for me. I don't want to give up.
Dear Lord I pray for my sister that she will Not give up, and that she will heal from losing her husband. Help her to be filled with your love. And help me to as I am also depressed
Lived and he loved me, Died and he saved me, Buried he carried my Sins far away, Risen he justified and freed me forever, One day he's coming back.... Glorious Day !!!! ❤ Yeshua HaMashiach ❤ 🙏 Shalom Shalom 🙏
Thank you for this timely message in these trying times. I turn to You, Savior, Lord Jesus. Thank You Father God, through the Power of The Holy Spirit. Come soon Jesus.
Im glad he is telling the truth. We also have physical bodies. Major Depression is no joke. It’s real don’t let the devil or people who don’t understand lie to you. Get the help you need. ❤Sometimes if all you can do is get out of bed for awhile it’s ok and keep going even just hour by hour day by day. Turn to God more then ever even if you are angry talk to God about what you are going through.
Pray for me, my health n my husband health aren’t too good right now. It’s leading me to depression. Sometimes I just want to end my life. I always pray n asked god, why this is happening to me, All at once, why did I deserve to have all these health issues, between me and my husband. Is he punishing me? But I still listened to some of my fav.’s pastors sermons. I also sometimes open my bible n read from time to time. Please, pray for me n my hubby to get better with our health problems. Amen
Me too...canceled pet scan and have often thought of regusing treatment. At the same time, I KNOW God has plans for us. I don't know what, or how, but I KNOW HE does. Much love and prayers to you 🙏
I been in a dark place from loosing my job 5 days before Thanksgiving and to boot im a single mom. I was sitting in a ball of fear and still a job has not yet presented it self. But the Lord saw to it that i got a temp job for a day and that 1 job payed for my little boys Christmas presents. AMEN
Praying for you 🙏✝️
Thank you Jesus. I'm there right now with the job situation. If we do not grow weary in do season we will reap a harvest.
I've put in many applications, but God has a plan. He has not forgotten me. My confidence is very low. But we walk my faith and not by sight. We trust in the Lord and lean not on our own understanding.
Don't give up I have been there God is opening a new door for you and when the time comes take it. Continue to pray on your knees. He wants you to call on him when your in your darkestest time. When not in the dark give thanks to him each morning your eyes open. It works. God bless you
I was a single mom . God provided what we needed..
Preach it, pastor!

Amen I've been getting depressed after loosing the place I live my sister who own the home along with my little sister. Now I no longer have a place since my older sister passed away. I pray the Lord has mercy on me and helps me as I go through this obstacle. I'm in prayer I know He is with me always today and tomorrow but my tears just continue. I've asked for prayer warriors to get me through. God give me strength to endure. Amen

I suffer from depression everyday.....But.....everyday i preach the gospel to myself....I remind myself who I am in Christ. And I Thank the Lord for every promise in his Word....I Thank him for Loving me, guiding my steps, I Thank him that because the blood of Christ washes me, and I can come boldly to the throne with my petition. If you are suffering too....try it....❤
There is no better way to resist depression, than what you are doing.
Thank you!

I've suffered from chronic depression for going on 4 yrs since I lost my only daughter. I have been to therapy but still struggle. I don't share this with my church family for the very reason pastor mentioned, I don't want to be judged or considered not right with the Lord. I trust the Lord and hold fast to my salvation. So, this message was definitely for me.
May the Holy Spirit continue to comfort you. You are loved❤
I am so sorry for the loss of your daughter. I pray for any mother or father that has to go through the pain of losing a child. May God comfort you in Jesus name.
Oh, my, but I'm so sorry. Depression has dogged my steps my whole life
May the LORD bless you with Courage....You are loved. ❤❤❤
I pray for God Almighty to give you strength and peace in your heart. May He Bless you.
A pastor’s advice on a subject, when inspired by God, carries tremendous comfort . Thanks for serving God’s flock!
_By design rather than default I have been here the last 5 years. As I stand in the kitchen under muffled weeping, the 6 yr old boy I took in at birth, from the living room gently says, "God has wings", to which I replied, "No baby. He doesn't". He replied, "Psalm 91 says He does". My muffled weeping broke into laughter as I ran to hug & tell him, "yes, YES HE DOES buddy and we are hid under His wings. Thank you so much for reminding me". Holy Spirit will testify to this truth. Maranatha_
Father please heal Your children so we can serve You
Amen
God only youcan comfort brothers and sisters going through depression right now
I'm in a faith based rehab and have to watch a sermon every Sunday. I suggested this video for the women to watch this morning and they all loved it. A lot of us dealing with depression and trauma were really touched by this message. Thank you God for finding me in a drug treatment center of all places, and thank you for 5 months of recovery ❤️
Yes, we live in a fallen world. Thank you fir reminding me. I can and do feel like such a huge failure in life because of my failed relationships which has it's root in evil from my beginning here on earth. I pray in Jesus' name pluck out any plant and root that is not of the Father. Amen. I must remember to lean on G-d's word and not my own understanding and He will make stright my path. Amen. Be blessed go in Christ. He is the way.
God bless you
God bless you all, 8 months into recovery and still going strong! God is good 😊
AMEN ❤
Just a few hours ago I begged God to take my life because I can't stop crying witnessing all the evil swarming and so many people refusing knowledge, saying they don't want to hear it, they don't care. Thank you so much for explaining what I go through, as do so many others. We just don't know of each other. I place all my trust in Yahshua/Jesus no matter what. Amen and Amen,
Iam here with you, it's hard to see his light sometimes here on earth when it gets so dark.But one of my favorite songs lyrics are "even when I don't feel you working your working, even when I don't see you working, your working.Way maker:promise keeper, you are working.
We all will be in paradise with Jesus and the angels soon but let's be his hands and his feet while we are here.
Jesus Christ come soon
I can relate
These are very difficult times. I can relate. I pray for God to give you comfort and peace.
He loves Us focus on God not what you can't change but through prayer and fasting God changes all things because he can if We stay in alignment with him . He said in John greater am I in you then he that's in the World. He also said in Isaiah no form or Weapon. Psalms 91 please read it and Psalms 23.Pleading the blood for you declare it and decreeing it and ask him to remember you.
I suffer through health anxiety and chronic pain,but I trust in Jesus that he's always with me!

Love Dr Jeremiah. He is a mighty man of God. He knows the word of God.

I have had depression since childhood. I was conditioned that way. No father. Mother was not affectionate or loving. Everything was my fault. Even counseling & antidepressants didn't keep me from trying to commit suicide multiple times. It took the Holy Spirit guiding me to my church before things began to change. The love, acceptance & prayers of my church family were a healing balm to my broken spirit. The love of my Savior, Jesus Christ saved me from myself! I am no longer on medication. I still struggle at times, but I am active in my church & loving life. Praise God for his love & mercy....I am finally happy!😅❤
Praying for you🙏🙏😊❤️
how long was your journey?
@aliciahernandez6203 I've been at this church 5 years now. It's taken some time for it to sink in that God loved me so much that He gave His only son for me. Jesus went to the cross willingly so that I could have life. It's hard to imagine that kind of love.
Thankyou Jesus😅
I'm 70+an Have been crying all day an very drepressed d don't Know Why Please Pray forme ♥️♥️ Love Rebecca. ♥️♥️
Praying now…..
I would love to pray for you. I don't know you but I declare that you are loved with an everlasting love and I decree that you are protected by God and Holy Spirit. Jesus is always with you and in your heart.
I pray you have gotten past your crying. This happened to me when I was in my 40s and I finally called upon the Lord to take away my pain and if he would hug me because I need a hug and as I finished praying he hugged me the feeling was so comforting. That day I promised to follow him then I danced for him went outside looked to the heavens and promised to follow him all the days of my life.
Praying for you🙏❤️
I hopethat you are feeling better 👆🏼💖
I am usually depressed in the winter after Christmas when it is cold. Compounding this is the loss of my mother brother uncle and 3 good friends. I try to stay positive and prayer seems to be the only thing which saves me!!!
Most people usually do to some degree after all the Christmas cheer and gifts are gone. I tried one Christmas without gifts under the tree at all and it was the best Christmas I ever had so I do it repeatedly now. I tell my family and friends not to buy gifts for me as I will not be buying any myself and don't want them to feel obligated. When I did return to buying gifts on other years I learned from C.S. Lewis who said he only buys gifts for children. So with adults I still keep the no gifts understanding. I stay out of the stores during December. Instead of fighting for parking places in the crowds I can stay home and enjoy my Christmas tree or Christmas music and do some kind things for others. I don't have to deal with the rush and bad attitudes of people fighting each other for the items on the shelf running out due to sales. On Christmas morning I read from the Bible the story of the nativity and sing hymns of praise for the birth of God's Son and our Savior. I also extend Christmas into the twelve days of Christmas, thanking God for the Gift of His Son each day,, doing a kindness for myself or for others. I also celebrate Little Christmas on January 6th as some in Europe do, as I had a dear relative who lived there in Alpine villages and taught me to love it. My Christmas carries all the way through January and it's more immaterial than material. I also have plenty more time to spend with friends and family since I don't spend time shopping for it. The extra fellowship is great, and I like knowing that store employees don't have to work extra hours during the season on my account. I never get that depression I used to have after Christmas that depended on shopping and a pile of gifts under the tree.
Depression is definitely not something to mess with!! It is your enemy! I have been fighting it since 2020…thankfully I have a doctor and therapist working to help me get on the right meds. It’s so hard and I am praying for everyone and anyone who suffers from it! Please get help! ❤
I'm Grateful You Trust in God And Consulted A Doctor and Therapist As Well.People Tend To Forget That They Are Our Gifts From God.I Am Very Happy For You And You Will Continue To Thrive❤❤❤
Your so right my depression will have me taking my own life very soon, I just don't want to do this anymore.
@@mjparham6430 thank you so much!
@@DonHernandez-g3b I feel the same way. I will pray for you my friend. It’s so hard!!!
Your life is not belong to you, but God, so ask Jesus how to live your life now and future, I believe He will answer you right after you pray.
I have suffered with depression, anxiety and panic most my life, to make things worse I thought I deserved it, Thank you Pastor Jeremiah for sharing this and breaking down all the different types I needed this!❤❤❤
Please read Psalm 23, God Bless you. Greetings from Mumbai.
God bless you Sarah.I suffer from social anxiety which makes it hard for to be apart of this world but I can't wait to be in heaven.
I can relate! It's the enemy who wants to paralyze us! God is so good and faithful. I hope you are set free!
Im sorry ❤!
I know how you feel, I have suffered all my life on and off with anxiety and depression. You are not alone in your feelings, even though you probably feel like you are. I will pray for you. God loves you! I wish I knew you and could talk to you and give you a hug.
I’m a black sheep in my family. Never felt like I belonged. Never learned how to cope! I was baptized in 2015. Went strong with learning about the Bible and how it works. Until about 4 years ago I quit. Things were not adding up and with lack of support and understanding I abandoned the only true love I had ever known! God loves us all!❤ We have two different spirit the Flesh/ and the Holy Spirit. I realize that it’s a constant Battle that we have to endure and Believe that God will see us through! My opinion only. I’ve been listening to Dr. Jeremiah and other sermons that capture my attention and I came up with this thought! I’m going back to my original plan and with the Lords Will he will be there to help me through. In Jesus Christ Name I pray Amen. 🙏
Oh thank you. I have such a testimony, I should dance. But like you say, sometimes rocks make us stumble..Ha no, God still right here. I pray for smiles, and true heartfelt Christ love your way. Smile Jesus nails gone, scars there, but we carry ours too. Only because He is right here…in name of Jesus, thank you.
God bless you, I feel this myself.But God knows our struggle and even when you put the Bible down he was working in you.There are no conditions of God's love only that you yield to his son and say Jesus have your way.Whenever I feel those feelings I just God, I've had enough, have your way in me.Praying for you always,amen

Thank you so very much for this sermon. I have depression and anxiety so very bad. I admit I am struggling very bad right now. Actually I'm scared because I can't seem to get past it. I'm all alone and have no family, but I do have a church family. Thank you for speaking the truth about depression/anxiety. So many people don't understand and never will ...actually I pray they never know. I feel so alone and so weak and constantly ask myself what did I do to deserve this God. I plead for Him to help me get thru this and feel better soon. But so far no answer. Would you please pray for me to be delivered from this. I love the Lord and I know He will see me thru but I'm so alone and feel so scared right now. Thank you so very much for this sermon and understanding and not putting people down who suffer. God bless you.
Oh, you are so precious to God. The study of neurology is in many ways in its infancy . . . but advances are being made every day. There’s hope. If you broke your arm you’d go to a doctor. Somehow the stigma upon anxiety/depression keeps the sick in their closets. I encourage you to see your physician or psychiatrist . . . seratonin and dopamine depletion is treatable.
Seems like I’ve suffered from depression/anxiety my whole life. I’m on antidepressants and I’m somewhat better, but I still battle with it.
One counselor I went to said, “it’s like a lion at the door”; that helped me. You have to fight it. I know that getting outside walking, etc. helps; walking, etc.
I’m trying to talk to God all the time, and memorizing encouraging scripture; and listening to praise music…
I’ll be praying…
I finally had to seek my Dr help & it did assist I also relished in our promise & love book, our Bible. I ask God to rebuke the enemy cover me in Jesus blood.
I also worked in forgive all who I had not forgiven. Pray don’t cease, day & night, read the word, Boldly study.
I still struggle but on the journey I’m getting better much better. I’m sharing bc I’ve been there but victory every day more and more. Joy will come. Love You ❤ God Love You.
When I went through a dark time I would kneel and read some power verses out loud.
It was very uplifting.
Turn To JesusAmen ❤🙏
Depression has been part of my life as far back as I can recall. No doctor did anything til I was told I have fibromyalgia. I take a pill at night and one in the morning.. Between the fibromyalgia, arthritis, degeratve disc...I had to retire last year...I had a lot of falls. Videos (teachings) like this help so much. Thank you Dr. Jeremiah.
Praying for you🙏❤️
God is friend in bad times
😮So true I been through many many oh God help me I have no one I have so much damage in this body wish I could tell my story . .
I needed to hear Dr. Jeremiah speak on depression this evening. I have hope because I will seek help.
Despite suffering from severe depression, my love and my faith in Jesus Christ strengthens me. I'm reminded of the faith of Job and his trust in God..
Our faith is stronger through trials
Yes, our relationship with Jesus is closer as we surrender more to him. When I am depleted I say "I choose Jesus" and hold on waiting for his strength. We have to hold on while the storm tries to disable us from his grip. He wont let us go. Trust him even when it is hard. Let him save us through it.
Amen
My wife has severe bouts with Dep. and BPD. I am not helping this because I am not always a good spouse. I trust God, though I do, trouble lives inside our marriage. I have faith but bad days come often and come hard.
@@badkneesone🙏🙏💕😔 Keep praying and listen to ministers who preach the Bible. Find a church that has true belief of the Bible. Be sure you are right with God. Pray for your wife and for yourself to change. Be thankful and thank God for blessings. I deal with depression over 30 years, meds help but God is better. I have lost my husband, my son, my dearest sister, and precious mother within a 5 year period and am totally alone except for God and wonderful friends. You please don't give up, keep praying. Don't give up. 🙏
This was a timely message. I am struggling with depression which I think comes from a pill that has been prescribed for prevention of seizures.
I don’t sleep well and that does not help with depression. I like his suggestions like pushing yourself to do things you don’t feel like doing, reading the bible when you don’t feel like it etc. Quoting scripture helps: the joy of the Lord is my strength among others and listening to hymns.
It's been a lifetime battle for me.

This message was right on time. I had recently been asking God why I lost my job. I recently got mad at God and asked him what I did to deserve it when I'm a hard worker. I'm still pushing forward. I haven't given up completely. This message was comforting. Thank you Pastor David Jeremiah
Watch Todd White or Dan muller great pastors
Put it at His feet, He has got you! I've been where you are but leaning on Jesus Christ will bring you through.
I have been feeling this way last few days , I am wondering that exactly why am I not joyful and happy , I feel lost and feel a lack of the spirit I feel scared and confused

I have been battling depression for nearly a decade. My husband is a kind man but is selfish with his time. My only child is on the autism spectrum. My family is full of dysfunction. I am so lonely. I find that women in most churches I have gone to are very clickie they don't seem interested in anyone new. I feel completely alone here. I cannot wait to be with Jesus
I understand your situation. Your husband sounds very much like mine, totally thoughtless and self centred yet kind and willing to help others who ask. It's been 32 years of grief!
yes. Ive tried to join groups in church. I genuinely think that in their blessed lives have no idea of such things. Beautifully dressed, perfect hair and pursed lips - I leave feeling cold.
@@fullofhope2222 is there another couple of churches near you could try 🤓 they might be more welcoming. I stayed 10 years in a church and made no real friends, too cliquey. Never again 😂
So true some people think depression has a on and off button but not
I turn to bad things trying to feel better it doesn't help but i keep on doing bad i know im wrong

While dealing with depression I was told by those in my church that I was depressed because I had weak faith. I needed to pray, asking God to increase my faith and I’d get better. Also, that if I were a “real Christian” I wouldn’t be depressed. I felt such guilt!!! I didn’t know how to feel how to deal with what I had been told. No one was willing to help me….they mostly told me that seeking professional help was a sign of weakness 🙁☹️😢. I eventually left that church….I did seek professional help and I did recover. It has taken years, but I’m soooo much better than I was those 23 years ago. My depression was the result of having been raised in an abusive dysfunctional household, by a mother who is a malignant narcissist and a father who allowed her to run her own agenda. I eventually relocated and found a church that teaches the truth, and is full of loving folks that became my family ❤️🫶🏽☺️. Thank you Pastor Jeremiah for all you do. I watch you daily and am always encouraged by you ministry.
Awesome testimony ❤glad you know the truth now
Sharonjones….same family background here. I was adopted into a family of ten and became the scapegoat of all the mess.
Pastor Jeremiah, you are one of the best shepherds, ever. You should be carved in if there was ever a Mt Rushmore for pastors. ❤
Well said
Please stop the idolatry
A true vessel G-d is able to work through.
Dr. Jeremiah, how I deeply needed to hear this, God is so good in pointing me in your direction. The shame I've experienced coupled with external condemnation has been overwhelming...after telling a pastor's wife I lived with depression and take medication, she questioned my salvation...the "church" has been very cruel and misinformed. But your words, Dr. Jeremiah, will always stay with me and will be passed onto others that struggle. Thank you for your ministry 🙏
I am 58 years old and I have suffered from Clinical Depression most of my life, I have trusted in the LORD since I was 21. I thought when I came to HIM that it would go away (the depression). He did not take away my thorn but HE gives me the grace and peace and mercy to fight thru it every time. I've witnessed several of my friends be overtaken and lose there battles. My heart is so tender for those who suffer. This video has been one of the spot on best I've ever heard. Dr. Jeremiah nails it! I feel like I am in good company with King David, Moses, Elijah and Job. My Redeemer truly does live!!! Thank you Dr. Jeremiah!! The coping points you describe are perfect and you presented your message in the most no threatening, empathetic way I've ever heard. And quite Godincidnentally "The Fugitive" is my favorite movie and I watch it every chance I get! 😄
And God reminds me all the godly nen mentioned, Davis, Moses, Elijah... were serving the Lord, may we be about giving God the glory, going out preaching the word and serving one another in love, NT, I need be faithful in these areas also❤
This was a blessing for me because so many people have no clue what it's like to have depression.
And or anxiety.
What if my depression comes from lonliness. Lonliness is about equal to depression. I am saved but do desire to meet a special companion. Ive been alone a very long time and its gotten to an unbearable place. I relate to this messege, the fight to rise above theses feelings seems almost impossible. To know the Lord's return is near is the greatest comfort i have. Praise His Holy Name. 😇
I feel the exact same way…
@@kimmefford2814 kim I will be praying for you. God will give us what we need when we need it. But we are human and do desire to have someone here with us in the natural. But the sufferings here on earth are temporal praise God!!! Know that you are in my prayers..love in Christ.

I suffer with clinical depression. A chemical imbalance in my brain. Even with medication I get depressed. I am so happy Dr. Jeremiah addressed this issue and provided not only insight but answers and help as well. I love the sound of compassion and the gentleness in his voice.
Amen! Me too
Me too.
Did you know there is no scientific evidence of chemical imbalances in scientific literature that proves what they try to tell us?
Depression comes upon us through periods in our lives when grief and loss hit us when we are striving to be our best do our best and continue to suffer and struggle with adversities in spite of our efforts to live a godly life! We are like children when things are not going our way when our lives are under extreme difficulties and it seems there's no end to it! That is the point at which we are aware of our own weakness and our need for the Love of Jesus and his plan over our life! We can pray for release but in the end our suffering brings glory to God and usually passes in time with a renewed sense of purpose! We persevere and look back on those seemingly impossible trials and realize God is always always on our side!
Well said 👏 sis ! Glory to the most high God 🙌 hallelujah 🙌 🙏 holy spirit we welcome you ❤️ 🙌 God bless you always 🙏

What doctors call Depression today is really extreme Grief where you feel defeated .. but when God is in you he rises you up like Job, Jesus, and all those in the holy scriptures that felt overwhelming grief and loss🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏
You can call it Depression or Grief or Melancholy. The name doesn't really matter, you still feel miserable and dejected. Not everyone is as strong as Job, many people just give up.
Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for everything. Amen...
I fight the Good fight every single day I keep my Faith and no more Fear we have our moments seeing how evil the world is and what is happening in our Presence but Remember God is with you every single day God Bless you all.
I am so glad to hear this sermon as I have suffered with depression many times and as a Christian felt so condemned when I heard a pastor say that no bible believing christian should suffer with depression. Also that you aren't healed that you don't have enough faith. I was diagnosed with clinical depression many years ago and am presently on an antidepressant. It is the worse feeling in the world and I would never wish this on even my worst enemy.
Me too. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.
Trust in the lord with all your heart lean not on your own understanding in all your ways acknowledge him not you but him the lord and he will make your path straight amen
❤ My 22 year old grandson committed suicide and it's a terrible feeling to deal with. Family and friends are suffering and some with depression. I really appreciate this sermon Dr. Jeremiah and pray that the Lord blesses you over and over again. I'll share this and hope it helps a lot of people. Thank you!!!😊
My sincere condolences 💐
Thank you so much from here in 🇬🇧 my pastor doesn’t believe Christian can be depressed if they are new creatures in Christ. It makes me feel so condemned 😢 this is light for me 🙏🏽🙏🏽🕊🤍
Find a new pastor! You need someone with some empathy. They don't have any understanding of anxiety or depression.
Oh Salina , I'm so sorry you feel abandoned by your church , it's not right ,I've not known depression but feel so much for those that do . Sending so much love to you x uk also ❤🙏

In Christ lift off his depression. May he find the Doctor or other medical or nonmedical specialist to get at the root of his cause of depression. May he find the Will and strength to look upon whatever is good and true according to our Father's good words in the Bible. May the curtains of darkness be removed. In Christ's name amen.
Praying for you🙏🙏❤️
Also praying for you. ❤️🎚️
Hows it going now❤@@one-step-at-a-time-curiosity
Amen !!! Thank you I needed to hear this today and I’m so grateful to my God he is my life ❤ 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you, God, for healing me in Jesus's name, amen.
I was going through a very difficult situation. One night I broke down crying,😮❤ my face wet with tears I asked for understanding. I suddenly stopped my tears as the holy spirit whispered in my ear, IF IT WERE NOT FOR TROUBLES, THERE WOULD BE NO NEED FOR ANGELS. A PEACE CAME OVER ME AND I IMMEDIATELY FELL ASLEEP.
GODS AMAZING GRACE SET ME FREE FROM MYSELF.❤❤😇
Amen
Grace is all we need to move forward.but we also need his
Strength for each day.and for all our circumstances in our daily lives.and gods protection.
I have been suffering with anxiety, panic attacks and depression all of my life. This last year has been the worst. I am a widow of 3 years, and my daughter is busy…so I’m alone all the time. I don’t drive, or know anyone around me. I feel bereft. I listen to sermons, I cry out to the Lord, I cry for help, but hear only silence. 💔💔💔
Can I help. I'm here if you wanna talk to someone
I am praying that God will bring you a close and loving friend.
@@Queenofthebackroads Thank you Yvonne! That’s my middle name! Bless you dear sister! 💖🕊️💖
@@carliebeau5329 Thank you Carlie. I’m doing better the last few days. I’m waiting on the Lord, and don’t always do that well. I’m realizing that I need to stay attached to Jesus, and in worship. It changes the atmosphere for sure. But thank you so much, is there anything I can pray about for you? I would be honored to do that! 💖🕊️💖
Praying for you🙏🙏❤️
I recently just went through a break up after being with somebody for nine years and a toxic relationship. I decided to get out of it and live life with God like I always have but I want peace and not abusive relationship. I started getting depressed tonight and I haven’t been in a depressed situation in many years. Funny how God had Dr. David Jeremiah do the sermon and has uplifted me. I live in Belton Missouri, which is close to Kansas City Missouri. I sure wish I would’ve known Dr. David Jeremiah was preaching here. I would’ve loved to seen him my dream someday is to hear him in person to give a sermon. Again, thank you so much for the message tonight. It helped me out immensely.
God bless you sister ❤
Whoever is reading this please pray for me and my kids and my mental sick wife 😢. Depression is killing me slowly and I have been praying since but i am loosing hope.Thank you and God bless you all ❤.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🥰🫶❣️✝️❣️
Do not loose hope, God is never to late. Trust in God . And never let your Faith in Jesus died for you . Put in son songs Of Faith and sing along , even IF its difficult. God bless you and keep you. The savior lives💔❤️🩹❤️🙏🏼
I Love You Holy Spirit I Love You Jesus I love You Father God Jesus is the LORD!
Ilove😅god
This was meant for me to listen, honestly. I went from listening to last Sunday my church message to Dr. Jeremiah's Turning Point message and tears were rolling down my face because I do suffer from depression. I won't go into my detail of my depression but I believe God had never left me, he knows me and importantly loves me. I take one day at a time and trust God in my depression. It is very true Dr.Jeremiah when you said to take our bibles and read. We can be woken early hours or at hours when we get our depression low that reading Gods Word is the book to pick up. Don't know when my depression will stop but Gods truth is with me forever. He has never left me.
I struggled with depression at once,but the lord took it away after crying everyday and year and seeking him through prayer and fasting.i woke up Happy one day.i don't tell you that i don't have trials and tribulations because I do as everyone does.but i try to stay prayed up and in the word.amen
✝️ G O D IS THE BLESSED CONTROLLER OF ALL THINGS!!! Hallelujah HALLELUJAH!
Thank you David, the past 5 years have been very difficult, one disappointment to the next. I am almost 60 and struggling to find and keep work. I’ve gone from a successful executive to taking work to just pay the bills. 27:41 Praying for a turn a round.
I have Bipolar and Alzheimer's, so I know how hard it is. We must always rely on God to help us 🙏 🙌 ❤️ ♥️
I'm praying for you!
@@SusanHyte-io8et thanks so much 🥰 🙏 💓 💖 ☺️ 💕
I too struggle with severe depression on a daily basis. I am fighting a war in my mind. I am also bipolar ( depression type) Domestic Violence left me struggling with traumatic event causing ptsd, brain damage and surgery.The left frontal removed. Years ago I fled to a DV shelter raised 3 children alone left with mental and physical health problems in and out of hospitals. I now have 5 grandchildren in which 3 live with me. Honest to God, I do struggling to “ be content/ happy and often think why am I alive when I suffer daily with horrific dark thoughts of dying. Its luke I actually look forward to going to sleep forever so I don’t have to deal with myself.
My mental and physical illnesses torment me. It matters none that I am blessed with the grandchildren I model, actress on occasion when I am able work.I am considered disabled.I am barely getting by. I understand the depression life as I am a perfect example of how debilitating it is. I pray everyday and night just to keep sane. I tremble with fear not of dying but my thoughts of darkness that takes over my body mind and soul. I am tired. I am sad and quiet miserable. I feel so alone surrounded by my loved ones. I listen to this message every night to try to calm my nerves to sleep.
I’m so sorry..
Praying for you🙏❤️
I'm so so sorry for you, may the many prayers of our people, be heard and intervene for you , child of God, Amen.
God bless you. I read your comment. Fight with all you might. Give it to God. ASK ASK ASK Jesus will help you. I pray you get peace and relaxation for your body peace for your mind. The Bible is magic Read it. Love you as a sister in Christ
There's no one I can trust who I could tell; medical doctoring hasn't helped; I seek God daily but rarely find him and miss him so much. I continue to visit in our nursing home as I've done for a decade but I have no family, have lost my home & friends and the nights can be so long. Prayers for me to be strengthened in my efforts to be forward looking and have a cheerful spirit would be very appreciated.
Sending you hugs🩷🫂🩷 Jesus is coming soon to take us home!😊

2 Corinthians 4: 17
For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.
Thank you, I have suffered this for years. I know I am in good company though.
I really needed to hear this. I'm going through medical procedures and needed strength. I did have my pity party. But I'm not going to suffer half as much like the believers of God in the Bible. All things are possible through and with God. I AM READY.
What is the name of the movie he talks about?
I really need prayer. Depression so bad I lost all interest in anything
Praying for you🙏🙏❤️
Love this pastor he is definitely a man of God. I pray 🙏 for everyone who is battling depression to God be the glory.
Thank you Lord for bringing me this Word today🙏🙏🙏
My son Aaron is suffering very debilitating depression. He gave his life to the Lord years ago but has for most of it walked his own path and I do not think he knows the Lord. I'm not even sure he is saved. Please pray for him. God bless you all x
I have prayed for him and if anyone else sees this please pray for him. I hope you are doing well.❤
Praying for you and your son🙏
Very touching message Poster David Jeremiah I am depressed lately myself everything going not good in my favor but I will hold on to the bread of life 🙏
🙏 🙏 🙏
😊😊l
A wonderful insight of depression. A lesson for such a time as this.
🙏 Praise be to our Lord Christ Jesus for His gift of saving grace! John 3: 16 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤
Like Job I've lost everyone I love. It's been 3 yrs since I lost my mother. She was my best friend and was a wonderful mom. I don't have a car anymore b/c I had to pay the bills . Been stuck in this house for over a year now alone. At least I've got my home and SS retirement and food. And of course God is with my everyday.
How are you
Praying for you🙏🙏❤️
This was exactly what I needed to hear this morning while I am deep in depression. I feel like I have been left alone and in a scary place but you helped me so much. I have been going through so much lately that it seems too much to deal with. “God puts his children in the dark sometimes because he is up to something” this message really gives me hope. I have tried medication in the past but it never helped me enough. I pray hard and try to love myself. Thank you so much for the word of God.
"Perfect Agape Love casts out all fear , for fear has to do with torment"
Learn to accept God's perfect love towards you , no matter how you feel .
His love never changes . 😊
In the end God rescues us. Because we only believe in Him. Jesus I love you. Thank you Dr. Jeremiah you prepare Christians for His way.

I need prayers for God to heal the pain in my knee! And I also keep praying for God to perform a miracle to my body to help me shed some weight so I can be healthy again and in fine shape so I can do work for God at church and to volunteer and get a partime job!

David Jeremiah is a tremendous Pastor Ready, Steady, Calm, at Peace with Jesus Christ our Savior. You will walk away at peace and in obedience after his sermon. Give Him a listen through him.
@DavidJeremiah Dr.Jeremiah you have brought me back to god in so many ways and I thank my father(my dad) for guiding me to you.
Your words reach me like no other and all I can do is thank god for you in prayer.
I was addicted for 12 years and now been clean for 8 years and still suffer sometimes in silence but find my peace in god.
I discovered Dr Jeremiah on his radio ministry Turning Point as student in the early 1980s when I was an undergraduate at. Kingston University England. I am so happy to hear this reassuringly bible-centered, unchanging and faithful voice again. Thank you dear Lord for starting to answer my question "What next and what is the way forward?". I am listening, LORD.
I struggle with depression as it is a campion to my illness. I make a point to praise God in the dark times, it helps!
I've been struggling with depression so long. No one has any ideal what I'm going through. It's God's grace that's keeping me day in and day out. I have no one to reach out to. I don't know what to do at this point. I am 64 years old, widowed with no children. I'm broken. Please pray for me. I don't want to give up.
Dear Lord I pray for my sister that she will
Not give up, and that she will heal from losing her husband. Help her to be filled with your love. And help me to as I am also depressed
@steflondon88 Thank you so much for your prayer!!! God Bless you!!!!🙏🏾❣️🙏🏾 We would have celebrated our 44th Wedding anniversary this month

Thank you for this timely message in these trying times. I turn to You, Savior, Lord Jesus. Thank You Father God, through the Power of The Holy Spirit. Come soon Jesus.
People are Severely Depressed. All People. Thanks for this message 😊
Im glad he is telling the truth. We also have physical bodies. Major Depression is no joke. It’s real don’t let the devil or people who don’t understand lie to you. Get the help you need. ❤Sometimes if all you can do is get out of bed for awhile it’s ok and keep going even just hour by hour day by day. Turn to God more then ever even if you are angry talk to God about what you are going through.
Bless you Pastor , from a depressive for many years. Your message....WOW. thank you
😭😭😭😭 THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS PASTOR...❤❤❤❤
Lord ,I am ready anytime for your return. Amen 🙏
Pray for me, my health n my husband health aren’t too good right now. It’s leading me to depression. Sometimes
I just want to end my life. I always pray n asked god, why this is happening to me,
All at once, why did I deserve to have all these health issues, between me and
my husband. Is he punishing me?
But I still listened to some of my fav.’s pastors sermons. I also sometimes open my bible n read from time to time.
Please, pray for me n my hubby to get better with our health problems. Amen
I'm suffering from depression and anxiety I have cancer and I just want Jesus to take me home I've never wanted to die so much I'm very sad
I'm praying 🙏🏼 ❤ I know how bad it can hurt
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Me too...canceled pet scan and have often thought of regusing treatment. At the same time, I KNOW God has plans for us. I don't know what, or how, but I KNOW HE does. Much love and prayers to you 🙏
