How to Fight Discouragement with Bible Verses

Regardless of the people or problems trying to dissuade you from pursuing your goals, you have to combine spiritual and physical interventions to form your own holistic deliverance ministry to fight discouragement.

Learn from Isaac that you have to fight discouragement until you achieve your goals. We can see that after his workers dug the Esek well, some herdsmen quarreled with them and claimed that water as theirs. Isaac and his men then dug another well called Sitnah and the herdsmen still quarreled over that one also.

However, Isaac was not discouraged despite spending a lot of resources on digging two wells because he knew he needed water. He simply moved on from there and dug another well. And, this time, no one claimed the water as theirs and he called that third well Rehoboth. (Genesis 26:19-22)

Therefore, decide that neither people nor problems will discourage from digging in until you achieve your goals. Pray and ask God to help you defeat those discouraging problems.

As you pray, use Scriptures since Bible verses are the foundation of any deliverance ministry and Christian spiritual warfare because the Word of God is the Sword of the Spirit that God has given us to fight with. (Ephesians 6:17) Therefore, we will call the Scriptures that we will use to fight discouragementSWORD WORDS.

SWORD WORDS that you can use as personal deliverance prayers to fight discouragement include:

1. Father God, help me not grow weary while doing good, for in due season I shall reap if I do not loose heart. (Adapted Galatians 6:9)

How to Fight Despair with Bible Verses

Regardless of the cause of your problems, you have to combine spiritual and physical interventions to form your own holistic deliverance ministry to fight despair.

The first spiritual intervention step is to trustingly commit yourself and your desperate situation to God in prayer.

Learn from Paul when he was in Asia for he says, “We were burdened and distressed beyond measure and above our strength, so that we despaired even of life. Yes, we had the sentence of death in ourselves.” (2 Corinthians 1:8-9)

Paul fought despair by deciding That we should not trust in ourselves but rather trust in God who raises the dead, who delivered us from so great a death, and does deliver us, and in whom we trust that He will continue to deliver us. (2 Corinthians 1:9-10)

Therefore, trust that God will deliver you out of your situation. Commit the entire situation to Him and defy despair by deciding to believe like Paul that even if you are killed by your problems, God can still raise you up again and this will stop you from giving in to defeat.

So, pray and as you pray, use Scriptures since Bible verses are the foundation of any deliverance ministry and Christian spiritual warfare because the Word of God is the Sword of the Spirit that God has given us to fight with. (Ephesians 6:17) Therefore, we will call the Scriptures that we will use to fight despair SWORD WORDS.

SWORD WORDS that you can use as personal deliverance prayers from despair include:

1. Ah, Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm and there is nothing too hard for You including this situation of mine. (Adapted Jeremiah 32:17)

The first spiritual step is to pray. Learn from King Hezekiah because when he was given a death notice by Isaiah the prophet, he begun to pray and as a result, God added 15 more years to his life. (Isaiah 38:1-8) Therefore, start to fight death by praying because To God the Lord belong escape from death. (Psalm 68:20)

How to Fight Danger with Bible Verses

Regardless of whether your life is in danger because of true enemies or false friends, you have to combine spiritual and physical interventions to form your own holistic deliverance ministry to fight for your life and deliver it from danger.

The first spiritual step to take is to consult God and find out what He wants you to do about your situation because He urges us to Call upon Me in the day of trouble and I will deliver you and you shall glorify Me. (Psalm 50:15)

Learn from David who faced very many dangers in his life especially when King Saul decided to kill him for he said I will call upon the Lord who is worthy to be saved and so shall I be saved from my enemies. (2 Samuel 22:4)

Note that David said this on the day that God delivered him from all his enemies including King Saul because he knew it was the formula that had kept him alive through all those many dangerous situations that he had lived through .

Therefore call upon the Lord in prayer and learn from King Jehoshaphat to combine your prayers with fasting. We can see that when several enemy armies attacked his nation, and his life and those of the Israelites were in danger, he Set himself to seek the Lord and fast. (2 Chronicles 20:3)

Ezra also led the Israelites in combining prayer and fasting when their lives were in danger because of bandits on their way back home from Babylon to Jerusalem. They prayed and fasted and God protected them on their dangerous journey. (Ezra 8:21-23)

Therefore, combine your prayers with fasting so that God can save your life from danger.

As you pray, use Scriptures since Bible verses are the foundation of any deliverance ministry and Christian spiritual warfare because the Word of God is the Sword of the Spirit that God has given us to fight with. (Ephesians 6:17) Therefore, we will call the Scriptures that we will use to fight danger SWORD WORDS.

Jesus is the Best Stress Management Therapist

Jesus is the Best Stress Management Therapist is part of our Free Christian Sermons Series

If you have been seeking professional help for stress management from psychiatrists, family doctors, psychotherapists, family therapists, financial advisers or social workers, understand that even as you continue following their recommendations, asking Jesus to help you manage your stressful situation is the best thing you will ever do for yourself.

This is because Jesus the Stress Management Therapist can see it all and heal it all. He can auscultate and heal the pain in your heart that you cannot enunciate. He can palpate and treat the frustration erupting in angry outbursts. He can decipher and doctor the silent scream that is smothering you into depression.

Therefore, ask Jesus into your life today for He is standing at the door of your heart knocking because He wants to help you. Revelation 3:20) Even if you have broken all the commandments and brought the stressful situation upon yourself, He still wants to help you manage the stress and that is why He is standing at your door knocking.

He already knows about the chaos in our lives so do not be ashamed of your mess for God did not send His Son Jesus into the world to condemn us but rather, through Him we might be saved. This is because the person who believes in Jesus is not condemned but the one who does not believe in Him is already condemned. (John 3:17-18)

Therefore, open up your life and heart to Him right now by turning away from your sins, proclaiming that Jesus Christ is Lord over your life and believing in your heart that God raised Him from the dead. (Romans 10:9-10)

Open up your life to Him and let Him see the emotional wounds in your heart so that He can help you manage emotional stress. Show Him the mutilation inflicted by your child’s suicide that has ached for continually for decades. Show Him the windows of your heart patched with old newspapers that will not let the light of love in after the panes were shattered by an unfaithful spouse. Show Him stinking garbage that you brought home one evening, grew attached to and have been unable to throw out.

Let Him see the mental wounds in your mind so that He can help you manage mental stress. Show Him the cracks in the walls of your mind that keep extending everyday as your problems become more and more unbearable. Show Him the rooms in your head that you will not enter as they are haunted by broken dreams and wasted opportunities. Show Him the toilets that will not flush and let go of painful memories as they are clogged with anger, bitterness and hatred.

Unveil the wounds on your body also so that He can help you manage physical stress. Show Him the mastectomy scar and lymph-edematous limb. Show Him the eye that was blinded by the freak accident. Show him the kidneys that have failed due to diabetes.

Do not hide your financial statements from Him so that He can also help you manage financial stress. Show Him the meals you forgo to buy medication. Show Him your last pay slip before you were unjustly sacked. Show Him around the tiny room you are cramped in since your house was repossessed.

Let Him see the full extent of your stressful situation so that He can restore you to wholeness. Do not fear to bare it all for Him for He looks with love and listens with compassion. Do not edit your sources of stress or hide your hurt for He loves you and He has accepted you totally.

Therefore, let Jesus be your Chief Stress Management Therapist for He is the only one who can see it all and solve it all. Consult Him every day by praying. Read the Bible to know His prescription and then heed it just as you obey recommendations from your psychiatrists, family doctors, psychotherapists, family therapists, financial advisers or social workers.
