SCRIPTURES FOR OVERCOMING DEPRESSION
Updated: Aug 20, 2021
When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.
Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.
Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.
Answer me quickly, O Lord! My spirit fails! Hide not your face from me, lest I be like those who go down to the pit. Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in you I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
Anxiety in a man's heart weighs him down, but a good word makes him glad.
The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.
Sincerely,
