I am going through a very deep depression, my husband is in Afghanistan and I am feeling very weak in my walk with Jesus. I am feeling so overwhelmed with all that I have to do. I just moved to a new city and have no friends or have not found a church that I feel comfortable in. Please pray for my situation.

Re: Prayer for depression
I, too, would be depressed if my spouse had run off to Afghanistan to join the Taliban. Like you, I imagine the shame would drive me to run away to a new city, where nobody knew my deep dark secrets.Originally posted by zane2 View Post
If I were a woman, I'd ask myself the tough questions:
Was I completely submissive to him in all things, as God commands? Or did I insist on doing what I wanted to do?Did I bear him many soldiers for Christ, or was I selfishly focused on working outside the home?Did I have him arrested for correcting me with the rod for my insolence, as God has commanded him?What else did I do to drive my husband into the waiting arms of a crew of hairy, muscular Islamist camel-jockeys?Yes, if I'd committed as many horrific sins against my spouse and against God's Word as you clearly have, I'd be depressed, too.
All you can do now is focus on being the Godliest woman you can be, and hope your husband returns. Naturally, you will have to welcome his new, Islamist wife (or wives) as well, and help him convert her/them to Christianity.
If, of course, your husband has converted to Islam, then you will have no choice but to stone him with stones until he is dead. Don't worry, his blood shall be upon him.Last edited by OnYourKnees; 05-04-2007, 05:50 PM. -
Re: Prayer for depression
Obviously, your walk in Jesus is VERY weak indeed, most likely non-existant.Originally posted by zane2 View Post
Just what lies.. what doctrine of devils have 'pastor feelgood' told you??
That Jesus loves everyone, no matter what?
The reason you don't have any friends is because you're poor:
The poor is hated even of his own neighbour:
But the rich hath many friends.
Proverbs 14:20
And why are you poor? Because you are not righteous and you do not seek God.
(Except when YOU need Him, THEN you want Him to help.)
And God does forsake those who do not seek Him!
Praise ye the LORD.
Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
Psalm 112:1-3
I have been young, and now am old;
Yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
Psalm 37:25
And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee:
For thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
Psalm 9:10
I see that now when YOU are in trouble, NOW you want God to help you.
But if you forsake God when you do not need Him, then He will not help you when you need Him.
If your faith is shaken by this that He has sent against you (it should be strengthened, as Job's was.) then you are not Saved.
Simple as that.
So I will not pray for you, it is obviously God's will that you are to suffer for your sins.
I will not oppose God by asking Him to change His decision to curse you with no friends, no money, and no husband.
I trust in God, so I trust He must have had a good reason for it.
You must repent and ask God to forgive you!Last edited by SalvationSeeker; 05-04-2007, 06:19 PM.If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: But if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.

Re: Prayer for depression
Praise! As we all know, the harlot non-Landover "Churches" have long fallen into the habit of choosing Mammon over Jesus, but it's nice to see that even the hippyish false "christian" Church still aren't quite degenerate enough to make an emo who mocks Jesus feel comfortable yet.Originally posted by zane2 View PostO Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.

- How the King James Bible Saved me from anal sex!
God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.Comment

Re: Prayer for depression
That is a lot to handle, especially with your hubby so far away. I would encourage you too to keep looking for a church that you feel welcomed in so you can meet some new friends. It's hard when you don't have someone to share with or laugh with for some respite from the "heavier" issues. Visit www.sermonsnacks.com and request a prayer for you.Comment

Re: Prayer for depression
Why are you spamming our site with your God-hating site? You refuse to use God's Word, the KJV1611, and instead try to steer confused people from our Godly site to your own, Don Collette!Originally posted by dawson9b7b View Post
We are not interested in your SatanSnacks here!
Mr. Collette uses "The Message", a recent corrupted mishmash based loosely on the Bible, using the Alexandrian texts (Collette must be a good little closet Jesuit).
Here's a good article explaining why SermonSnacks cause such indigestion among True Christians:
John 1:1 is a biblical test verse for a translations' accuracy and credibility:In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
There are no verse numbers in The Message, on purpose, so it will be more difficult to check and compare scripture. But the first five lines in The Message on John were comparative, so I read:The Word was first, the Word present to God, God present to the Word, The Word was God, in readiness for God from day one.Will someone write and tell me what this means? It is evident that Dr. Peterson didn't know what it meant.
Next I wondered what The Message had done to such passages as the beatitudes, so I read first from Matthew 5:v. 5: Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.v. 6: Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled...v. 8: Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
Next, I turned to the seemingly comparative paraphrases in The Message and read:v. 5: You're blessed when you're content with just who you are -- no more, no less. That's the moment you find yourselves proud owners of everything that can't be bought.v. 6: You're blessed when you've worked up a good appetite for God. He's food and drink in the best meal you'll ever eat...v. 8: You're blessed when you get your inside world -- your mind and heart -- put right. Then you can see God in the outside world.Other than endorsing narcissism and pantheism, I get no meaning from Dr. Peterson's interpretation of the Sermon on the Mount. Otherwise, I must appropriate these paraphrase meanderings to the mouthing of an inebriated priest who has lingered a little too long at the Benedictine bottle.
It is one thing to dumb down church members with vernacular translations, but quite another to make Jesus Christ sound like the village idiot, saying things that He never said. I personally would not want to answer at the Judgment Seat for editing or rewriting what Jesus said. I, for one, think Jesus knew what He wanted to say, and said it.Last edited by OnYourKnees; 05-08-2007, 04:27 PM.Comment

Are they paying you to spam? Or...Originally posted by dawson9b7b View Post
But of course: there is no "group" at your vile homepage of the devil himself, but only one or two guys.
And you're one of them, that's it, isn't it?
Take your false gospels elsewhere, false teacher.
This harlot has been cursed by God for her sins, and who would you be to say otherwise?
God HIMSELF says, in His infallible Word, that she is cursed!
Can you change God's judgement? NO! And neither could your silly "snacks"!If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: But if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.
