3 Ways To Overcome Depression & Anxiety As A Christian
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 авг 2024
- As a Christian, the discussion of mental health is a conversation that we need to have more often. So many of us in the body of Christ are struggling but are too afraid or embarrassed to seek help within the Church. I've struggled with depression and anxiety for the majority of my life and I want to share a few tips that have helped me overcome these dark emotions.

Right now it's real difficult, I am feeling weak everyday. I don't even feel like praying, this how low I am. Hopefully I will get better soon, Christ loves me. To those going through the same thing, keep strong and keep fighting. I am a warrior, wounded, but a warrior nonetheless!
God bless your soul, beautiful Warrior of our Lord God 🙏🏻
Keep your focus on Him and who He is. Praise Him for who He is and thank Him for His goodness. Don't focus on yourself or the problems. If the wrong thoughts keep trying to occupy your mind, go right back to thinking (meditating and letting your mind dwell) on Him. Talk to Him throughout the day about His goodness.
Same! We are strong! 🙏🏼💕
Thank you Nick for your making this video, I’m really struggling right now with feeling like I have nothing to offer anyone, not even Jesus. I’ve been saved for many years but sometimes I feel like God isn’t with me, like he left me and I can’t do it without him, I am not somebody that cries, but my life just seems so worthless right now and I see everybody else and I think they have so much to offer their family and friends and I don’t have anything to offer my parents, my siblings, my husband, myself, and especially God. I’m praying for everyone has had to deal with depression, I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.. to anyone who reads this who feels the way I do right now, please know that I love you and I want you to feel better
Love you to sis, will be praying over you ,God bless you
It actually seems to get harder after becoming a Christian
That’s when the devil comes the strongest…stay strong bro. God Bless
True . but at the same time you get a lot of burdens lifted off of you.
Yeah stay strong your right man
😊
I use to suffer from depression and some could say it’s like having a medical condition which is not a sin. However, what brings a person to that condition could be rooted in sin.
This world is fallen and often painful. It can be depressing. But God is far greater. I acknowledge the depravity of the world, but I also acknowledge the sufficiency of God all Mighty
I have been through something that taught me that there are some depressions that are not from sin, that it could be medical.
I have postpartum depression after giving birth to a 10lbs 2 oz and 23 inches long baby boy.. and the long and very difficult recovery, while taking care of a newborn, while having less than 5 hours of sleep every night without every catching up on it..
Not every depression is the same and from the same cause.
(I was very level-headed and mentally healthy leading up to the birth, including through carrying the baby, doctor tested me when I finally sought help and they found my hormones were definitely off... hormones being really off and seriously lacking sleep daily can lead to you having trouble keeping a sound mind.. can lead to depression.)
I firmly believe (from my experiences) that my depression wasn't caused by something spiritual or a spirit but I do remember whenever I was at my worst, that satan or a wicked spirit would come in and whisper in my ear trying to convince me to take my life.
Those are demonic spirits. We have to pray against that. God gives us joy and peace.
Or it’s just our experience as Christian’s living in a broken world. Not everything is a demon. Sometimes we deal with flesh. Paul mentioned this as a thorn in his flesh. We don’t know exactly what he was dealing with, but scripture tells us he prayed for God to take it away. Please understand that yes demons exist , but they are not going to be our main opponent as Christians. As unbelievers, yes. Our flesh and resisting the devils temptations will be. God bless
@@paiger6058 GOD bless you sister ❤️🙏🏿✝️
I don’t think depression is that even Jesus was depressed in the Bible Elijah and Moses
@@tinaanderson3395 that’s a really good point and worth considering
@@paiger6058exactly ❤
Identity in Christ is always the first steps. Great point. I have struggled with depression for years and it still tries to sneak up on me.
Jesus, please help this young sister to overcome the depression. Give her a mantle of praise instead of the spirit of heaviness. Please Lord, please
I have tears running down my face while watching this video. God bless all of us brothers and sisters in Christ 🙏🏻
I was struggling deeply with depression, Jesus truly helped me through it with guiding me in the right path, reading Bible helps me daily
Agree with everything said, BUT sometimes there is a physiological component that also needs to be addressed. I’ve struggled with clinical depression for over thirty years and tried, unsuccessfully, for a long time to only come at it from the spiritual side of things. I finally listened to my doctor and sought therapy (from a Christian therapist), as well as took medication and for the first time in my life experienced mental clarity. The spiritual is still very much present and being mindful of how we think is always important. However, I’ve had to acknowledge that doctors, science and medication are all gifts of grace from God. The Bible says every good gift comes from Him. Just as he has blessed us with wisdom to create medications for cancer with the various chemicals and ingredients he has placed on this earth, he has done the same for treatments for mental illness. I praise him for that. I would encourage anyone suffering to speak with someone who can help determine if you’re going through despair, spiritual attack or chemical imbalance. You’re not weak because you’re sick. Feel no shame or condemnation for seeking help.
Good words, I'm 30 years old and have been to a few hospitals over the years for a stay at a time and have battled with this. The most important thing to keep in mind is that we know Jesus and keep fighting the good fight of faith and running the race all the way to the end. The thought of ending this life early still hits me sometimes, but I get overwhelmed with the thought of how many people we can still reach in this life and be rewarded by our Lord. It's all about Christ, we were bought and our bodies are not our own. Thank you for sharing this bro.
Thank you so much! This helped at the very time I needed it the most. I demanded theses demons leave in Jesus name. I then felt a peace come over me. Christ is our only way to freedom
Yes, my mental health is vulnerable. I obsessively worry about my family. It causes me depression and anxiety sometimes to the point of paralysis.
Autism, adhd, depression …. Spiritual warfare is very difficult to me, myself so much in my face that i myself am in the way of God’s face.
I have had those thoughts that I rather be with God then be here . I even felt suicidal .
You matter and you are loved. I will be in prayer for you my friend. You’re not alone. Lord, you never left Jessi, you’re there now.
I had the same type of thoughts before. God healed my mind.
You are LOVED!
I’m battling all sorts of issues with sin. There’s a particular female who I know has no intent of turning to Christ and yet I can’t get over her. I keep falling into sin with her. Please pray for me to have spiritual discipline and break this situation off in order to live fully for Christ 😢😢
What do you mean falling into sin with her? Do you mean fornication? I hope not, that would be very serious.
@stevenl1706 clearly, that's what he means and knows how serious it is. Do you have any real advice for him? Other then telling him how serious sin is.
How you doing now?
You're not the only one to fall into this. But it makes living an abundant life in Christ truly hard. All sin will make you feel bad and make it harder to walk fully in the Lord and truly will keep you from doing your duties as a Christian. If you're truly saved bro you're not going to hell but sin will keep you feeling like you can't walk in fullness. You want to hear the good words of the Lord when you go to heaven "good and faithful servant" not " I've given you so much and you did nothing with it" you will not be rewarded greatly in heaven as if you did take what God gave you and walked with it confidently and put your own selfish needs away. You're not alone. I need to take my own advice.
Thank you 🙏🏾 I truly needed to hear this. I took a very important exam yesterday and since then I’ve had nothing but negative thoughts about it. I am struggling to fight my doubts with faith but your video was helpful and enlightening.
You Got This 🙏🏼
Thank for your honesty and sharing this! I truly thought I was the only one that deals with these feelings... God Bless you brother! I love your spirit and your truth!
Spiritual Warfare is so real!
You’re not the only one! Thanks for the kind words 🤎
Great message! I definitely needed this. God bless 🙏
That verse in Ephesians 4 is gonna do so much healing for me. I honeslty believe God led me to find this video and you in general. All your videos have been making it easier to go back to him. Thank you Lord.
when you said certain shows and music and social media that really spoke to me... that is very true words
Beautiful. Thank you, as someone who has struggled with this for a while it was powerful.
This is a great video. Im a licensed mental health therapist, and there are times in my practice where im just thinking like, man, have you tried Jesus? Lol. What we consume impacts our spiritual, mental, and physical health. Situations impact thoughts, thoughts impact emotions, emotions impact behavior.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SPEAKING ON THIS TOPIC ESPECIALLY AS A CHRISTIAN…… 🥺
Needed this. Honestly at my breaking point 😓
This was good. Consider doing more of these this was edifying ❤
This changed me. Thank you.
Thank you for making this video! My husband is struggling with severe depression for the first time in his life at age 44. It took us 6 months to figure out what was going on and now at 10 months he is still struggling. It is a spiritual battle!! That's the worst part of it. The doubts and questioning of his faith is so hard, and I don't know how to help him. It's always good to hear from a Christian Man, who is willing to encourage others by sharing. Thank you!! Im sending this to him
Now!
Niiiiccckkk!!! You betta preach!! Cmon Bible study vibes!!! Totally binging all of these videos of yours. Very relatable as I did struggle with anxiety and depression but I repented for whatever unconfessed sin Ive involved myself or that was on my bloodline and then renounced all covenants and curses that was bearing the fruit of spirit of fear, spirit of anxiety and spirit of depression. I’m free! No longer suffer from any of that.
Now that I’m drawing closer to God and realizing the power that is at work within me I get indignant when fear or anxiety thinks it has the right to creep up on me.
I’ll be lifting you up in prayer brutha. I hope you are doing well and better. Bump that, I hope that you are healed and delivered 🙌🏾
I can't tell you how much of a blessing this was on my life right now. Thank you. I'm going to save this for when I'm in a dark place.
Thank you for making this video 🫶🏾
I really appreciate your honesty, espacially regarding to the consumption. I really have to resist several sorts of consumption. The amount of tempations regarding to all sorts of consumption (media, food, substances, information, false teaching probably, and the list goes on) really seems overwhelming from time to time.
I also reached that point where I linked my way of living to my mental health issues as a Reborn Christian. Just since about 1 to 2 weeks I am really diving into the word, using the early wake up calls from god almost each day (between 3 and 4 am) to conect with him in prayer and by reading scripture.
I am already recognizing how it changed me, how HE changed me. The struggle is the same and still around every day in uncountable shapes, BUT there is a rising peace in me about things, in situations I normally overreact to superficial and ignorant behaviour.
Please dear "congregation" (if I can call us this way) include me in your prayers so I might gain spitirual strength in the Lord and that He guides me on that way out of sinfull behaviourt that brings sorrow to the holy spirit, gifted to me. Amen.
Thank you for this message. Definitely needed to hear this!
I listened to a preaching that depression is god wanting intercessory prayer til it comes out. My depression comes from people at work ignore me even at church. It happens everywhere I go. Sometimes its draining. Just today a girl at work looks at me and asks why you mad. I said I'm tired not mad. I hear it so much that I wish I could stay home and not be around people but I have bills. I try to be happy and pray a lot but seems like its only getting worse. I don't know just got to keep pushing on.
Please keep pushing on 🙏
Nick, I too struggle with the same stuff, keep praying and keep the faith!
Thank you for opening my mind and my eyes
I needed this today. I suffer with depression episodes and i been in a funk and i came across your video and i feel relieved
Praise God thankyou for opening my inner eyes.
I cover your ministry with the blood of Jesus.
Hello fellow brothers and sisters can you pray for me going through mental breakdown with anxiety and depression. ❤️
I am struggling and need help battling this anxiety demons. They have latched on for to long I pray in the name of Jesus he brings me back to normal
May you be supported, comforted and healed! May Jesus' precious blood cover you with he's almighty love and spirit of wisdom 🙏🏻🦋🕊️
Ignore the problems and the demons. Keep your focus on who Jesus is. Go to the Word and find verses about His promises to you and who He is (refuge, deliverer, all powerful, unfailing love for you, provider, healer, etc ). Let this wash over your mind as much as you can and learn to relax in what He's saying to you. Thank Him and praise Him for who He is in your life.
Thank you for sharing this…it helped me just at the right moment today because I was having a really hard time processing all the twisted, crazy events going on in this beautiful world God created that has become so corrupted by evil. Sometimes it’s hard to remember all the good that is still out there and that’s when depression and feelings of helplessness can attack us. You’re so right. We have to be prepared every day and be selective about our choices. Many Blessings to you.
Wow! This is so deep. I have so many questions. I wish I could find someone near me thats like you that I could talk to. I love listening to you. You have a way of explaining things that just hits home with me.
Bro.
I am not a christian even though i grew up in a christian house.
But i love listening to these messages in 2024.
Make more please.
Very soothing and makes me happy and warm.
God bless you i needed to see this video so glad i found your channel
My interpretation is different. I thank you for what your saying because certain women hate me and I don't know why my heart breaks. I'm in pain every day physically while working. Anyhow, thank you because you're helping people.
Thanks Nick. you always have the Good Word of The Lord. God Bless brother👍
God bless you brother. I have been very anxious for the past several weeks. This really helps me. Thank God for your ministry.
Go to the Psalms and find scripture on who God is and meditate on those. He tells us not to be anxious or to fret because of who He is.
I loved this! Thank you so much for sharing, so many Christians, me included needed to hear this. I just found you on TikTok and came here. God bless you brother.
I am inspired by your teachings since l started following your posts continue doing great work God bless you.
I’m so thankful for this video, I’ve had suicidal thoughts and major depression since I was 9 and I’m 17 back with God but I just hate how I’m not walking like the Jesus and the disciples were, preaching, giving my whole day to the lord. I just hate myself for it but this made me feel better
Thanks for this, Amen 🙏🏾I had a moment (s) recently in July and it's been good then not...but in all of it I held on to hope with the little strength that I had. Reading the Bible, Journaling, worship is a lifeline. The Holy Spirit moves in me daily and I arise but I can't stress how important to lean on Abba Father daily 🙏🏾 The Rules of engagement by Cindy Trimm helped incredibly in 2019 /2020 on spiritual warfare and understanding satans kingdom. It is so destructive but not obvious...its seems as light but pray for God to open your spiritual eyes in this world, it will literally save your life 🙏🏾
Thank you
Thank you my brother... Immanuel until Maranatha.
I needed this video.
This message was so on time!
Rest in the finished works of Christ and embrace the peace that surpasses all understanding but most importantly is realizing that God loves you with an everlasting love
God & Jesus are the same person theres only 1 God
keep it up great job that was inspiring 😇😇
Thank you Nick!
Thank you, Nick
Can’t even begin to tell
You how much I struggle daily
What helped me was trying to fight depression anxiety is that satan is not depressed or have anxiety and any insecure.he has a job to do. So do I that helps me wake up in the morning and keep fighting the battles.
That’s powerful! Needed to hear thaf
Thank you this really helped!
thank you brother
🙏🏾🙌🏾 I struggle too
Plz Pray for me to fight this battle am going through.
You are so right
Your amazing god bless you 🙏🏻🙏🏻👏👏👏👏
This is so good…
Luke 10:19 (1-42)
19 Behold, I give unto you POWER to Tread on serpents and scorpions, and OVER ALL the power of the enemy: and NOTHING shall by any means hurt you.

Ephesians 6:16 (1-24)
16 ABOVE ALL, taking the Shield of FAITH, wherewith ye shall be Able to Quench ALL the Fiery Darts of the wicked.
Excellent video Nick.
I struggle with depression and anxiety im not on medication for it but i know i suffer with it.
I became a Christian 5 year's ago and was baptised in October 2021.
As new Christian i got rid of my mobile number so that it would help me to leave my old life behind.
Hanging onto the old associate only temps you to fall backwards basically they are a stumbling block.
At first it was difficult and it still is that way for me even now after five years but now i am able to make careful decrement who i allow into my life with the help of our father.
It can be very lonely if you don't have that special friend your can shear bible information with. I did have that but that person i believe as gone backwards but also still attends church whice i believe is hypocritical.
It's so hard to trust anyone these day's because of the fear of being deceived. I have decrement to know when i am being deceived but it dos'nt mean i cannot be deceived.
Alot of the time i just wished our father would come and collect us but i know that's not going to happen for now because bible prophecy as to be for filled.
Thank you for shearing your thoughts with us who watch your videos.
Be blessed 🙏
Matthew 13:38
The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
Share in his suffering ( 😥😥😥) this is my hardest part that I am not excluded.
Ephesians 4:30 ( dont grieve the Holy Spirit) allowing in my mind and emotions
Help to believe all my emotions are false.
Be careful of my consumption of this world.
Over come... Help me Abba to feed my spirit with your TRUTH, PROMISES.
Help me Abba not to be blind and be see what you see, and help me in weaknesses.
Keep fighting for me in all that I am not aware, or forget that you've defeated and I have authority only with you close to close to me.
Help me not fall out of tune with you and your promises.
I am a child of God. I am the daughter of the Most High who doesn’t leave nor forsake me.

my dad almost caught me watching sexual stuff, cuz im just socluelessly broken in my head. And he went through my yt searches, and oh my days. I'm so lucky that god made my father not understand what he saw. God let m off the hook for a reason, bc if my dad rly did find out my mental is gonna get a whole worse and take away devices, which I wont be able to make online money anymore. And close calls but not as close as today has happened and I got so filled with anxiety, I was just in guilt and being quiet and faking smiles. I didn't know how simple it is. he forgave you and don't worry about the past or future just move on on either the past or future. Watch your consumption has helped a ton, ily brother in christ.
Can I still continue to hear that? Yes I am suffering from that. But I think I am not strong enough to hear that. I have to go.
Hi Nick, thank you so much for this. What Bible version did you use for Ephesians 4:30 please? I need to live by that 😒🙏
amazing video
Amen!
0:53-1:13 hit me hard
Amen
Amen 🙏🏾
I miss these styles of videos
I've been wanting to make a channel to show the world everything God has done in my life to better me from the pit of hell he took me out of including attempting suicide and hard drugs but I'm afraid of not being well spoken. Can you help me by giving me some tips on how to speak so clear and eloquent? You do so good in this area. Any suggestions would help so much. Thank you
Vanessa, I believe if God leads you to share your story, He will speak through you, your communication doesn’t have to be great, He can take over as you speak 🙏
God is not for fear , don’t let the devil stop you from an important message. You will attract those who need your message and that’s what matters most.
When I was 23 years old I had the chance to get married to the woman of my dreams! I told my parents the news and this is what happens
My mother says " ok well you better let your dad know" so I tell my father " dad I'm getting married" he then goes off on me saying " No son you can't get marries, your just a little short guy, who has an embarrassing personal problem, no you can't get married!* Stupid me I listened to him 😢. After that day I went into depression, I gave up on myself, I have no confidence, no self esteem, no self worth and most of all no self love! I need help with getting into God's word.
I suffer from depression only because I crave attention from one person and don’t get it it’s a terrible feeling I wish I was dead at times
😭
Spend more time with God. Read the bible and pray. Jesus is really all we need the most. Seek him first, and other things will be added unto you. Stir up your faith. Without faith it is impossible to please God.
why dont you make these videos more often?
Religion doesn't help with depression. Just take some shrooms to reset the default mode network in the brain so u don't get worse. I had to do it this year because I had constant panic attacks where I wasn't able to work.
@@torixa371 May God help you. Nothing is better than religion
The enemies of God(demons) work like a racket. They cause problems by attacking your spirit, then let up on the attack when you seek help from sources that will deepen their control in your life. You fell right into a demonic trap my friend. The enemy doesn't care how you feel. They will gladly let you have relief in this life to ruin the next. Just start talking about Jesus in a good light, and Watch how fast your panic/demonic attacks come back. This is cause you didn't receive true healing. Fear of the lord is the beginning of wisdom. You clearly value wisdom. "Professing to be wise the became fools. Always learning, but never arriving at a knowledge of the truth."
I’m battling all sorts of issues with sin. There’s a particular female who I know has no intent of turning to Christ and yet I can’t get over her. I keep falling into sin with her. Please pray for me to have spiritual discipline and break this situation off in order to live fully for Christ 😢😢
Can you move away from her? If you can, do so.
Yeah I can. Thank you
