Biblical and other support for those Hurting badly!

[Jeshu]

What a Friend we have in Jesus as Lord. No one compares to His Way of doing things. Only He conquers the evil powers that control this world and only He makes a spectacle of their attempt to deface us into a greedy selfish plaque - plaguing everyone on this planet by what we have let The Wicked make out of us.

Truly The Wicked are an alien race, if ever there was one! For they were never supposed to exist but have been brought into being out of the uncreated - humanities unfaithful love - in conjunction with the liar in our minds - made them true reality. (Revelation 9) So sad really, so very sad. For although satan only ever lies, the evil unleashed through those overcome by those lies is real enough down here. Just look around!

This is why loving true is the secret to getting to know Jesus Christ. For only He is true. We sinner have fallen and we best understand that once our spirit is stained by The Wicked, they stick like clue to our spirit! There is no turning back from the tar bubbling up out of the dirt of our lives down here. Or isn't this the place where Babylon does her dealing and wheeling within your sin stained heart? That unfaithfully loving heart ruling us willful sinners?

So each time the dragon in your guilty conscience demands you to do this or that to pay for your wrongs!
Or each time the false prophet predicts the good life you will gain doing this or that for the beast of the earth ruling this planet!
Or each time unfaithful love whispers her greedy wicked ways into your heart or mind!

Know the name above all Names to get you to safety and beg Jesus to show and teach you to begin to love true like He does. So that your spirit may be cleansed by His blood, and your mind renewed by His loving truth. His Good Life growing instead of wicked lies taking over your inner world of being serving only ever more bad life into you.

So please love someone true today and say thanks to Jesus for saving your life and go and pick up your Good Life awaiting with Him even today.

Peace.

Revealing Revelations.
Has your conscience been pricking you today? (Revelation 9:1-11)
Guilts contents keeping you out of view? (Revelation 6:16)
Does shame threaten raging wild fires? (Revelation 16:15)
and darkness appears the best hiding place? (Revelation 6:15)
Ever fearful of God's truthful light exposing? (Revelation 20:11-15)

Then surrender your reality to Jesus Christ, (Revelation 1:4-8)
and die being a worker of the darkness. (Revelation 2:22-23)
His blood cleansing your guilty conscience. (Revelation 4:6)
So Dragon accuser looses his unholy grip, (Revelation 12:10-12)
on your new, faithful and love burning heart. (Revelation 19)

 

[Jeshu]

Feasting My Good Life.
The Wicked captivated my truth
the truth of my heart and mind
and wound me around their lies
knotted me out of my own reality
into the dungeons of torture below.

Unable to unravel their cob webs
the wicked took control of my life
and brought much pain and misery
feasting on my God given good life
at the expense of my own welfare.

Yet when Christ light lit up my night
and i saw Him on the clouds of heaven
The Wicked sprung all their traps
thinking i was as good as dead
trapped in their nasty fowler's nets.

Yet the Lion of the tribe of Judea
killed the goats great and small
and set me free from their control
and gave me back my freedom in Him
feasting good times growing New Life.

 

[Jeshu]

Your Life for Mine.
Thank you so much Lord
laying down Your Holy Life
for my unholy sinful one
saving me from the wicked.

All so Your holiness can touch me
You bringing in communion with You.
From mere dirt to a shining jewel
Oh the power of your love Lord!

What glory have you achieved
with your precious life blood?
How can i not praise you
and adore you forever?

 

[Jeshu]

A Moment Of My Time.
What will last forever in my life?
What lasting glory do i have?
What eternal works on display?
What loving reached perfection?
What faith has raised the dead?
What in my life does not pass away?
Especially on The Day i breathe my last?

For the lie rules me supreme, down here.
For i cannot trust, even my own heart.
For all i think is futile, the truth told me.
For i know not the future, never am i right.
For i am like everybody else - imperfect.
For i am not always nice, at times i'm horrible.
Especially my dirt needs cleaning in me, badly!

Best keep my eyes peeled on Jesus!
Best trust Him to be truer than me!
Best love Him dying to give me life!
Best honour Him His gift of Blood!
Best praise Him for His Handiwork!
Best Know His truth better than mine!
Especially know how He saved me from Hell!

So i can praise Him for giving me New Life.
So i can mend my way from bad to good.
So i can learn to love faithfully true.
So i can oversee me beside my Lord.
So i can finally win the good fight
So i can lay down my sinful hurting life
Especially glorying in our Heavenly Father.

 

[Jeshu]

Transcending the pit.
So lonely and dark
so pitiless and cruel
so mercilessly judgmental
so strong and oppressive
so brutal and lowly
is life down in the pit.

Where is the love?
where the compassion?
where the kindness?
where is acceptance?
where is the light
at the end of the tunnel?

No way out but to love again
no way out but be compassionate
no way out but to have goodwill
no way out but to accept the situation
no way out but slowly gaining back
all the good life that has been lost.

 

[Jeshu]

i used to think.
i used to think God was a feeling
please don't get me wrong
not that He Himself was a feeling
but that He was a feeling within
my emotional make up.

Such misery did this error cause
me feeling good!
Aha God is happy with me
me feeling bad
Oh no God is angry with me!

If only i had understood earlier
God is much more than a feeling
He is really true reality
i can drink good life from Him
even when i feel bad emotionally.

Twenty one years of depression
taught me to understand this
for this is the secret about our Lord
To Know God is to be with Him
no matter what my feelings are up to.

i got to know Jesus through The Word.
reading it as a personal address
from God's Spirit Himself
bringing me the ability
to survive depression for so long.

 

[Jeshu]

Psalm 55
Listen to my prayer, O God,
do not ignore my plea;
hear me and answer me.
My thoughts trouble me and I am distraught
because of what my enemy is saying,
because of the threats of the wicked;
for they bring down suffering on me
and assail me in their anger.


My heart is in anguish within me;
the terrors of death have fallen on me.
Fear and trembling have beset me;
horror has overwhelmed me.
I said, ‘Oh, that I had the wings of a dove!
I would fly away and be at rest.
I would flee far away
and stay in the desert;
I would hurry to my place of shelter,
far from the tempest and storm.’


Lord, confuse the wicked, confound their words,
for I see violence and strife in the city.
Day and night they prowl about on its walls;
malice and abuse are within it.
Destructive forces are at work in the city;
threats and lies never leave its streets.


If an enemy were insulting me,
I could endure it;
if a foe were rising against me,
I could hide.
But it is you, a man like myself,
my companion, my close friend,
with whom I once enjoyed sweet fellowship
at the house of God,
as we walked about
among the worshippers.


Let death take my enemies by surprise;
let them go down alive to the realm of the dead,
for evil finds lodging among them.


As for me, I call to God,
and the Lord saves me.
Evening, morning and noon
I cry out in distress,
and he hears my voice.
He rescues me unharmed
from the battle waged against me,
even though many oppose me.
God, who is enthroned from of old,
who does not change –
he will hear them and humble them,
because they have no fear of God.


My companion attacks his friends;
he violates his covenant.
His talk is smooth as butter,
yet war is in his heart;
his words are more soothing than oil,
yet they are drawn swords.


Cast your cares on the Lord
and he will sustain you;
he will never let
the righteous be shaken.
But you, God, will bring down the wicked
into the pit of decay;
the bloodthirsty and deceitful
will not live out half their days.

But as for me, I trust in you.


How many depressed people know the wicked like this psalm portrays - malefic lies haunting us through our depressed minds? How many other depressed people realize that the evil companion in this psalm could also so easily be our own depressed inner self talker? It was very much like that for me, i betrayed my own integrity by the heeding those unhappy thoughts and feelings pestering me within as factual. The very lies depression raised up against me where used by wicked attacking me through my depressive illness. It was only through the Word of God that i found a safe heaven from all of this.

Hallowed be His Name.

13 Habits of People With Concealed Depression

Good article, Gerry. Thanks.

 

[Jeshu]

If you struggle with heavy 'voice' of depression and you are squashed into a black hole and you languish there in anguish on the bottom then know that this is not the place for you beloved, but for your tormentors - those very forces casting their misery upon you and masking you pay their price. For the pit is reserved for satan. Jesus is going to grill him in there for a thousand years to get back what he has not all stolen from you and to undo all the horrible evils he let loose upon you in his attempt to destroy you a son or daughter of God. That creepy devil does it through captivating your thoughts and your feelings with his with lies created bad life and then without remorse hammering you with his misery while squandering your good life.

One thing i have learned to understand in my battle with the wicked - the wicked are terrorized by the mere notion of God, let alone God Himself. So if you fear God please understand who is hiding behind all of that. Not that the wicked ever see Him in His Glory - only in their deed will the wicked meet God - to energize them a little. Oh we sons and daughters of God spark big time when He lights us with His gracious love, but the wicked hiding within us are dying stars and implode into their own created black hole from where they will be released one the Day of Judgment! (A most awesome day this will be when all wrong within us dies forever and The mortal is resurrected into immortality and we in all our good deeds will live and rule over Good Life with Christ Forever O(o)ne with our Heavenly Father to B(b)e in the full sense of The Word.)

i can hardly wait till death comes to finalize that Great Day but i know all families on this earth have to serve Him first (Psalms 22:27-28,) and so sadly the fullness of time has not yet Come. (The Christian religion has much to answer for!)


Check out how the word works itself out in different parts of ourself according to the word in cycles of prophetic times and halve times, from rock bottom to Highest Heavens.

Our misery, Job 6:1-13.
Our Mourning Lamentations 3:1-20.
Our captivity, Isaiah 47.
Our inner battles for dominance, Daniel 7:1-14, 11.
Our wicked deeds/lies oppressing us spiritually, killing our good life, Revelation 9, 12-14.
Our ending as unfaithful sinners, rebirth and renewal, Revelation 17-22.

i found that this is the best way to understand life with God - spiritually everything is the same - even the colours - as in Creation. Spiritually everything is awesome and beautifully in its presentation on God's side and dark and ugly on satan's side. So as i have an unending universe around me - so i have within an unending spiritual reality called God Heaven and earth. Once we get the hang of understanding our inner reality in the Word of God we are safe for that is what Peter means when He says - to have life in the abiding word of God cannot die, for like the word we abide forever. 1 Peter 1:23-24.

To know everything physical also spiritually firstly putting the spiritual reality first in your life and Jesus will put your world upside down to how it now is. i know that is what He did for me. Hallelujah!

Five Goats Ruling!
Oh you he-goats are so strong and cruel
To slaughter and devour is your will
What kingdoms of destruction to rule?
Making the rest of us pay your bills! (Daniel 7:1)

Let's name a few of you kings by name
I want to be sure that everyone knows!
for you are unfaithful to our life time and again.
always denying The Truth when the [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse] crows!(Matthew 25:41-46)

Yes you - lying tongue - so very brave
in the dark breeding shady parts within
dragging God's chosen down to their grave
death as reward for your voice of sin.(Daniel 7:4)

Loveless voice - what an abomination
entering our soul through Satan's lies
The chosen suffering extermination
as cold-heartedness our conscience fries.(Daniel 7:5)

Greed eye - you have our good times lost
All you get your hands on is history
those compelling demands as cost..
...such loudly wailing misery!(Daniel 7:6)

And so - The Dragon - comes in play
ruling mind controlled by The Accuser
Babylon captivating lawless sway
rules and laws taxing the user.(Daniel 7:7)

(A lament; )

Oh - lawless unfaithful egocentricity!
arrogance and pride robbing control
proclaiming godhead and divinity
burning good life right out of our soul.(Daniel 7:8)

(Conclusion; )

Yet the rule of goats will not last!
Kingdom Come - goats reign demise!
for when the final king dies the past..
...judgement cuts down those ugly ties.(Daniel 7:9-12)

For behold when Christ says "Hi!"
His Light of Day sinfulness demise
those unruly goats will surely fry
when Christ denies them paradise.(Daniel 7:13-14)

 

[Jeshu]

Dust to Dust, Life To Light.
To open your eyes to the darkness,
ever present in the waking hours
Blessed sleep where are you?
i don't want to be like this!

To feel hurts so much...
yet not to feel hurts even more..!
My very own self depresses
the mickey out of me.

There is no winning the pain
when depression has hold of me
best just succumb straightaway
to giving in to my sins.

The strength to go on long gone
every step dragging feet
every bloody step of the way
hurts like hell.

Why am i here right now
as not to hurt my failures
and overwhelming distress
at being me as be?

Yet rock bottom who do i meet?
Jesus in His distress at seeing me
sweating my inner hell
while He has Heaven prepared for me.

It is for me to let go of the lies
those things dragging me down
finding Christ's truths to reign
Seeing His light streaming within.

 

[Jeshu]

In or Out?
I knew The Truth
i met Him occasionally in times past
Yet few moments I spend loving Him
i see in retrospect.

Rather constantly run away
working out my theology
and placing the truth
where I wanted Him to be.

How divided could I be?
i, His child and all?
yet loving untrue in deed
more often than not.

Now a sheep then a goat!
All and every moment
Salvation or Judgment
in deed to meet!

In the end i began to learn
taking hold of loving true
and living life with Jesus
into eternity!

Psalms 88
Lord, you are the God who saves me;
day and night I cry out to you.
May my prayer come before you;
turn your ear to my cry.


I am overwhelmed with troubles
and my life draws near to death.
I am counted among those who go down to the pit;
I am like one without strength.
I am set apart with the dead,
like the slain who lie in the grave,
whom you remember no more,
who are cut off from your care.


You have put me in the lowest pit,
in the darkest depths.
Your wrath lies heavily on me;
you have overwhelmed me with all your waves.
You have taken from me my closest friends
and have made me repulsive to them.
I am confined and cannot escape;
my eyes are dim with grief.

I call to you, Lord, every day;
I spread out my hands to you.
Do you show your wonders to the dead?
Do their spirits rise up and praise you?
Is your love declared in the grave,
your faithfulness in Destruction?
Are your wonders known in the place of darkness,
or your righteous deeds in the land of oblivion?


But I cry to you for help, Lord;
in the morning my prayer comes before you.
Why, Lord, do you reject me
and hide your face from me?


From my youth I have suffered and been close to death;
I have borne your terrors and am in despair.
Your wrath has swept over me;
your terrors have destroyed me.
All day long they surround me like a flood;
they have completely engulfed me.
You have taken from me friend and neighbour –
darkness is my closest friend.

Crying out to God from the darkness

Excellent sermon! Not many pastors dare to tackle the depression issue in such a respectful and honest manner.

 

[Jeshu]

If we want to escape the loveless deadness of our depression we do well to learn to love like Paul describes to Timothy in the words below. From suicidal to the stage that i could cope with suffering depression took less than 4 years to acquire. Learning to sincerely love others hurting around me and praying for their well-being.

Romans 12:9-21

Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honour one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervour, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practise hospitality.

Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.


Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: ‘It is mine to avenge; I will repay,’says the Lord. On the contrary:

‘If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.’


Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

 

[Jeshu]

Revelation 1:4b-8
Grace and peace to you from him who is, and who was, and who is to come, and from the seven spirits before his throne, and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth.

To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood, and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father – to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen.


‘Look, he is coming with the clouds,’
and ‘every eye will see him,
even those who pierced him’;
and all peoples on earth ‘will mourn because of him.’
So shall it be! Amen.


‘I am the Alpha and the Omega,’ says the Lord God, ‘who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.’


The one aspect of my healing that stands out is that when we begin to love again often at first our depression almost seems to become worse. i think this is mainly because love is truthful about the situation we are in and will explore the deepest regions of our depression so that we will find the ability to handle it in Him and with Him and come out Victorious!

See the good thing with love is the He basically peels us of the old but just before splitting time He fills us with the power of His blood and forgiving grace. His good life will take us up while doomed and cursed misery will begin to fall away into the pit from whence we came.

The best way to understand this is remembering the words of Jesus that when He comes He puts everything upside down, He certainly does! However instead of tumbling down The Eagle keeps us safe and sound under His Wings while bad life instead of bombarding us and overcoming us will fall away into the pit below.

What we need is time and the ability to cultivate loving life with Him into Good Life no matter what the mood is.

For example today i've been down, anxious, nauseous and restless yet the flame of Christ's love burns brightly and i have no problems keeping my eyes on Him instead of get dragged away with bad life attacking. More and more such bad times don't really matter anymore. The way i see it always go is that the dirt in me is sown with those Heavenly seeds on a daily basis and on a daily basis He gives me the ability to survive the onslaught. The crops are good and harvest times delivers abundance, why should i complain? My desert is blooming all around me.

i know the promises of the O.T. that i ate all these years ago have all come true and i humbly thank Him for His mighty power and His glorious love. What a warrior we have in Christ? Unbelievable!

Isaiah 35
The desert and the parched land will be glad;
the wilderness will rejoice and blossom.
Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom;
it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy.
The glory of Lebanon will be given to it,
the splendour of Carmel and Sharon;
they will see the glory of the Lord,
the splendour of our God.


Strengthen the feeble hands,
steady the knees that give way;
say to those with fearful hearts,
‘Be strong, do not fear;
your God will come,
he will come with vengeance;
with divine retribution
he will come to save you.’


Then will the eyes of the blind be opened
and the ears of the deaf unstopped.
Then will the lame leap like a deer,
and the mute tongue shout for joy.
Water will gush forth in the wilderness
and streams in the desert.
The burning sand will become a pool,
the thirsty ground bubbling springs.
In the haunts where jackals once lay,
grass and reeds and papyrus will grow.

And a highway will be there;
it will be called the Way of Holiness;
it will be for those who walk on that Way.
The unclean will not journey on it;
wicked fools will not go about on it. No lion will be there,
nor any ravenous beast;
they will not be found there.
But only the redeemed will walk there,
and those the Lord has rescued will return.
They will enter Zion with singing;
everlasting joy will crown their heads.
Gladness and joy will overtake them,
and sorrow and sighing will flee away.

 

[Jeshu]

John 14:23-27
Jesus replied, ‘Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.

‘All this I have spoken while still with you. But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

It is God's love that we are after, or rather God is love, so if we touch true love we touch Him. It is important that we put the word true in front of the word love, for love down here is not often true whatsoever.

Sad to say this really, instead people's love is fickle and often turns judgmental and unforgiving to those who they don't approve of. Religious people are notorious doing that to people who don't tow the religious line. Especially mentally ill people cope it bad. Where even their illness is taken against them and instead of care receive judgment and condemnation. It happens time and again - all over the world!

However God's love is for the oppressed, the poor, the down trodden, the beggars and all those who know they can't do it themselves and need Jesus to cover them. The good thing of those who let Jesus cover them and live by faith in His love, is that they are approved of by our Heavenly Father and will receive Him as Father God in the temple of their hearts.

This temple is build by Jesus Spirit through the word - see Ezekiel 40-44 for example, and becomes the place where the Glory of God dwells within us. There are no words to describe the glory of the Lord better than The Word does Himself - take Isaiah 6, Ezekiel 1 Revelation 1, 4-7,21-22, for example.

Once we have The Word of God Living Within us then we know the Name of Jesus true. Immanuel - God with us, among us and in us! (John 14:15-27) These are the best times a believer in Jesus may have communion with the Father and Jesus in Spirit of O(o)neness - see Revelation 4 for example.

No Church building, no other people, no song, not anything can take us up before the throne of The Father but our Lord Jesus. Only He can humble us enough to get through the door of Father's heart. For our Lord is in a lofty place but very much with the contrite of heart for only they can experience Him.

Worldly arrogance or pride in our own achievements are not going to take us before His countenance. Neither do religious studies. Rather an all consuming fire awaits such things for God is unspeakable good and His love holy, holy, holy. We sinners are no match no matter how good we are.

One thing is sure His light penetrates our darkness - for that is where within we see the Greatest Light - for those in darkness have seen a great light - we best always understand that to be true. For we best not be like the people of this world who trust in themselves and the system they serve and in their own choices. Or like religious people who think that because they are His people they can place themselves above others, or think they are forgiven their sins even as they fool heartedly judge other people for theirs.

So the battle is not to conform to worldly or religious demands but to serve the Lord sincerely loving Him, others as well as self, and all good Creation, while dying to the old on a daily basis, so no one can touch you or knock you of your place beside Christ ruling.

So yes The Word is first of all spiritual. It is finding Him back within and giving Him a place of Utmost importance - ZION Ruling From Above - is what we want to be alive within our hearts. Ezekiel 40-48

John 15:9-12

‘As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. My command is this: love each other as I have loved you.

 

[Jeshu]

Depressed?
The pain of depression
is not only the fact
that good life is gone
much worse seeing
bad life enjoying
tearing good life apart.

The sorrow of depression
are the hurting lies ruling
they shape an abomination
which brings us our desolation
time and again
dumping us in the pit.

The hopelessness of depression
floods fully over us
when we are overwhelmed
by the darkness pressing
down into that hole
so lonely and forsaken.

The way out of depression
is to lovingly love
yourself away
from loveless lies
back into His truth
ruling good life.

 

[Jeshu]

Prince Of Peace"
My heart a storm, clouds raging deep within
The Prince of peace came bursting through the wind
The violent sky held its breath
And in Your light I found rest
Tearing through the night
Riding on the storm
Staring down the fight
My eyes found Yours
Shining like the sun
Striding through my fear
The Prince of peace met me there
You heard my prayer
Hope like the sunlight piercing through the dark
The Prince of peace came and broke into my heart
The violent cross, the empty grave
And in Your light I found grace
Tearing through the night
Riding on the storm
Staring down the fight
My eyes found Yours
Shining like the sun
Striding through my fear
The Prince of peace met me there
You're always there
And You hear my prayer
Your love surrounds me when my thoughts wage war
When night screams terror, there Your voice will roar
Come death or shadow, God I know Your light will meet me there
When fear comes knocking, there You'll be my guard
When day breeds trouble, there You'll hold my heart
Come storm or battle, God I know Your peace will meet me there
Again and again
Oh, be still my heart
I know that You are God
Oh, fear no evil
For I know You are here
And my soul will know Your love surrounds me when my thoughts wage war
When night screams terror, there Your voice will roar
Come death or shadow, God I know Your light will meet me there
And my soul will know When fear comes knocking, there You'll be my guard
When day breeds trouble, there You'll hold my heart
Come storm or battle, God I know Your peace will meet me there
Oh, be still my heart
And my soul will ever know that You are God
And You heard my prayer
