I am learning that depression is a spirit, for those who read the bible it tells us that we fight against evil spiritual wickedness in high places. Who is that evil spirit, we all know its satan. Ephesians 6:12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Right there it lest us know that its not the people themselves but the spirits that are on them. The problem comes in for all of us and why we are depress alot is because we entertain that spirit, sometimes knowly and sometimes unknowly. What i mean by Entertain is that we listen to those thoughts(give ear). We have the power to give ear or to rebuke those thought and keep on moving. Because if you don’t rebuke it at the door I promise satan want come alone. This is how it starts with me, I either get angry(spirit 1) then I go from being angry to depress( that’s spirit 2), then I give myself pity (spirit 3). You see how once I left that door open for one spirit and the rest of them followed. My point is if I would of stopped that spirit at the door then those other 2 spirits wouldn’t had room to into my thoughts. What I mean but stopped it at the door is rebuke it off me with prayer or with prayer and fasting. Luke 11:24-26 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out. 25And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished.26Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. wow you hear that they enter in and dwell there and that man is worse than the first. to me thats deep because that explains alot for it self. those spirits make your thoughts there home, thats why for some its hard to get over depression and others its not.
