FROM DEPRESSION TO SUICIDE - THE LIE FROM SATAN
A real big lie from satan is to sacrifice yourself or take your own life even the lives of others. The Truth is Jesus Christ gave His Life so you can live! He shed His Blood so that you may live. He was the complete sacrifice in your place and the only one!
Matthew 11:28 "Come to me, all of you who are weary and loaded down with burdens, and I will give you rest. 29 Place my yoke on you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
Hebrews 10:14 Because by one offering He has made complete for ever those who are made holy
But why am I feeling this way? God is calling you! Your God loves you, now hear His voice:
Proverbs 8:35 By finding Me, you find life, and the Lord will be pleased with you.
Proverbs 8:36 But if you don't find Me, you hurt only yourself, and if you hate Me, you are in love with death.
Matthew 16:24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.
What does it mean to take up my cross? It means to surrender to the Lord and give up your own efforts and let the Spirit of God come live inside you:
Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself for me.
Galatians 5:24 And those who are Christ's have put to death on the cross the flesh with its passions and its evil desires.
Now it is time for you to come to faith my beloved:
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only-begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but so that the world might be saved through Him.
Titus 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but in the measure of His mercy, He gave us salvation, through the washing of the new birth and the giving of new life in the Holy Spirit”
A person must have purposed in his heart that he is ready to make a total and complete surrender to the Lord. A dying to self must take place, a complete surrender. In other words the old man of sin must be crucified with Christ.
My dear friend no matter what you have done in the past, no matter what kind of sin or addiction you are into right now, if you feel convicted and you are ready to receive the Lord Jesus as your Savior and be born again, just ask Jesus to set you free. If you want to be free and forgiven, and become a new person with a new beginning, all you need to do is to ask Him. When you are tired and weary of life, call unto Jesus, He will answer, He did answer from the Cross.
Heavenly Father I come to confess today that I have been a slave and a sinner all my life. Lord I surrender my life to you now and I want to be free. Lord Jesus You are the Son of God and my Lord. Wash me by your precious blood and remove all my trespasses from this day forward. Lord, today I confess to you that I have forgiven all those that I carried a hate against and those that did me wrong. Lord, my ears are closed to the insults of those coming against me and open to your Holy Word so that your peace abides with me. I cut off from my life all generational sins, bonds, curses, and pride by the blood of Jesus and my deceases are healed by your wounds in Jesus name. Lord, today I confess I have no lucky charms and I have no possessions or graven ornaments that I consider too valuable to let go.
Lord, you are the only God in my life. Lord, I confess that my life, my health and wealth is completely in your hands Lord. I depend on you alone Lord, on you alone Lord, for rain, blessings and prosperity. Lord I ask that your Holy Spirit come live inside me that I may live according to your will and Word so that I may proclaim your Name and Word everywhere I go for all the days of my life. Lord, thank you for forgiving all my trespasses by your Holy sacrifice and that you will not remember my sins anymore from this day forward according to your faithful Word. Thank you Lord in Jesus name, Amen
