Bible Question:
Hello Everyone..I suffer from Bipolar, which is a terrible ordeal to go through on a hour to hour basis. I cry out to the Lord a lot with just simple prayers like, "Adonai, keep me from hurting myself and others. Abba, help me to keep my sanity right now. LORD, don't let me fall from you fingers." I cry out to the Lord more than anything else I do in a day. I do feel He is listening...matter of fact I know. I stumbled upon this verse tonight in my AMP Bible. "Agitated, disturbed, fearful, cowardly, unsettled" all describe me right now. And to hear Him come down from Heaven and speak this into my heart makes me wail, because He cares that much. Now I know I need His peace. His unmovable peace. His sustaining peace. But I don't know if I can find that peace all the time. When I'm having a break down all that can go through my head are negative, violent thoughts, put there by satan. How do I seek this peace in the bad times. (And I mean bad times to the 100th degree). How have some of you done this and what Scriptures do you use? Disclaimer: I have a psychiartist, and a Christain counselor. I'm not looking for a diagnosis or someone to talk to. I'm looking to the Lord's Word to heal my pain and suffering. Please share anything that you may know or have. Thank you so much. May God bless and shine His countenance on you all. Lissamz |
Bible Answer: Psalm 1:3,4, Psalm 90:17, Proverbs 6:2-11, Psalm 102:16-18, Psalm 61:2, Psalm 69:1-3, Proverbs 25:20, Mathew 5:3-9. Try praising the Lord with out loud singing, sounds weird, but try it. Even if you end up crying with tears running down the back of your throat and snot flying, try it. I was mentally ill for a long time and I had to praise the Lord until I was vommitting on an empty stomache to get through it all. They diagnosed me as Bipolar Schizophrenic and I went through hell. I finally gave up and said Lord, I can't function anymore and threw the pills out and dedicated it to Him, three months later I was completely healed forever. Don't try this if you have not heard in your heart to do it, chemical imbalances are hard to beat. But God lives in our praises coming out of our mouths, you will find that it will be hard for the devil to operate while you are being inhabited by the Spirit of God in your praises. But the devil will fight and you will get physically ill, don't give in to your flesh trying to stop your praises, keep going until you get delivered. It may take years of praise, but God can do this, if He did for me, He can for you. |
