God, just replace these suicidal feeling with a deep love for You. Help her to realize what she ismissing. Send a person to minister to this woman. Living life is not easy, but it is much easier with you. I pray that You will give her comfort, strength and joy like she has never had before. I pray blessigns upon this woman's life. I pray that she will come to know You. I also pray for the family. This has got to be devastating. Place Your arm around each member of the family and give them a heart of love and forgiveness. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen

Thank you all for your prayers and for lifting her up! I worried about her kids, turns out her husband suffers from deep depression and doesn't get out of bed some days. And my friend thinks her kids are perfectly fine. She's stuck in the 'me' mode and she just has it in her head that what she did, did not effect them in any way. So please keep this family in your prayers! Both parents need help before someone takes their kids away...

Father move Your Loving Spirit into the lives of this family. Give this family and friends wisdom how to pray, love and support them. Give the children knowledge, depth and insight...So they will not fall into the trap of depression. Father whatever is causing this stronghold, In Jesus Name, remove and set them free from this bondage...Amen

1 Thes 5:23,24
May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. God will make this happen, for he who calls you is faithful.

That's too bad. It's so sad too. What botters me about these is often it's people have actually have no real serious problems either. I think often by having things too easy they don't know how to fight for themselves, and have no concept of a real serious problems. So they take the most trivial stuff and somehow pervert it into it being the end of there world. Like for example, "I'm too fat, so life sucks.... bla bla bla." ... It's like "ya tell that to the staving kid in Africa. I mean I'm not saying that it's not a problem for them. Yes, infact for them it is. But they often fail to look at the big picture. I don't know. I mean I'm not phychologiest but I know many people somehow become their own worst enemies. It's weird. Like it's crazy really. But I heard that like even if a parent tells a child "you're no good, you'll never amount to anything" or something like that, the child not only is psychologically damaged for life but even a demon could enter them, or be assigned to them to exploit and continue working on that damage. I think something like this happened to me even. As I had a lot of childhood trauma. Later in life was seriously depressed, not suicidal but only because I already understood the afterlife. Wasn't wanting to risk a trip to hell kinda thing ;-p But the only way I got out of this depression was through doing a constant regiment of positive affirmations for about a year. After that I was pretty much completely healed. I had completely rebuilt my neropathways to be positive and optimistic. Well I give God the glory for pulling me through all that. But like they say the miracle is half you're work right.

Okay just quickly, one other thing that relates to what I just talked about. Then my prayer. But....

See most people don't understand the power of beliefs. Let me give you a few scenarios. Someone isn't feeling well. They go see a dr. The Dr does a bunch of tests. Says to the patient "Unfortunately it's cancer and I hate to say this but you have 6 months to live. Then exactly 6 months later, the cancer patient dies". This happens a lot. Why is that?

Another example. Someone in the bush country in africa goes and does a bad deed to someone. So the one guy feeling offended decided to get revenge. They go to a witch doctor and pays them to put a curse on that guy. The witch dr puts a curse on the guy in a ritual. The witch dr then goes to the house of the person he's cursing. They leave something like a chicken head and blood on the guys door attached to a doll representing the guy. The guy comes home, finds this, realizes he's been cursed. Then a few weeks later he dies, or he his house burns down, or he gets hit by a bus. Why is that?

These are forms of vodo curses. The moment the person starts believing in what an authority figure says it sometimes is the cause of the actual negative effect. Whether that be a decease or a curse. The person internalizes it because it's being told to them by someone who is an authority figure in the community. Someone who they've been programmed to believe that anything that person says or does means "it's true".

Now I know this sounds crazy. But if you don't believe that then consider this....

A phychologist sees a patient. The patient has a problem of having multiple personality disorder. Now think about this. God doesn't put 20 people in 1 body. It's 1 person still. It's still 1 life force. It's 1 human soul. Not 20. But each personality that takes control of the body believes so strongly that they are who they are, that the persons body changes as each personality takes control. For example. Personality 1 is a senior citizen suffering for diabetic. Clinically tested as the medical tests confirm that as the senior citizen personality is in control, full blow diabeties is plaguing there body. Also other aliments. They document multiple problems. The problem even show up in tests. Now the phycologist says to the senior, "i want to talk to Peter". Peter is a 10 year old boy personality. So Peter materializes. They retest the persons body. Guess what now? No diabeties, no medical conditions. Pluse rate and heart rate of a 10 year old. Etc etc.. And each personality how has beliefs as to what phycial conditions they suffer from, the condition only comes to life and phsically appears as that personality takes control.

Now think about that.... The belief of the personality is so strong that is changes the physiology of the persons body. This is documented fact. How do you explain that? The only way is how powerful out beliefs are. Whatever you believe about yourself is who you are, or who you're becoming. So getting back to depression. Well their beliefs are one factor in what's causing there depression. And a major one too I'd say. But I don't know. Look everyone hates a know it all, so I'm not professing to know, or have all the answers. But I have an idea of how some of this works because I lived through it. Also it says in the bible "as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he".

Anyway, food for thought... ha ha ;-p Dear lord I come against the spirit of depression and suicide in this person. I pray lord you will remove it and replace it with a spirit of joy peace, optimizm and happiness. Amen.
