In today’s modern society and the great number mental health problems that plague the multitudes of people (depression, anxiety and psychosis etc.) it is evident that satan is causing misery and snatching peoples’ lives away that haven’t known Jesus on a daily basis. You only have to look at the suicide statistics, even in first-world and developed countries. But there is one major weapon we have against suicide, and that is God’s Word, and understanding some basic principles presented in scripture.
The most important aspect is Faith. Let me ask you a question, if you end your life, do you think you are showing Faith in God? It is written in the Word of God that he who believes in Christ and has Faith is justified and inherits salvation. Martin Luther started the Protestant Church based on this. It is written that anything is possible with God, but a decision to continue on through the hard times and having Faith in God, you are putting your Faith in action. It is written that if you have food and raiment (clothing) you should be content. No believer will go begging for bread and take one day at a time.
If you or a loved one is suffering from a mental health condition, introduce the Word of God. The Bible states that we should give milk to babes, i.e. only simple, easy to digest, mysteries revealed in the Word of God to new Christians. Introduce them to Faith and the reward (the Crown of Life) to those who have Faith. The Bible states that we are all given a measure of Faith. Start living for Jesus. Bad times will pass and you will become resilient. Jesus loves you very much, even if you have sinned, repent of your sins, this will wipe your slate clean and your sins will be washed away, and return to follow Jesus wholeheartedly.
