STOP, DON'T DO IT! Take hope! You have options that you cannot see right now! It is not that you do not have options, it is just that you cannot see them.  Evil forces cloud our minds from seeing the hope of a better day.  It is coming.

Only the word of God can strip away the darkness so that we can see the light and think clearly.  Your are in the dark simply because you cannot see the light.  Hurt and hopelessness work together to block the light.  The light is actually all around you.  MAKE YOURSELF read the following scriptures, even if you absolutely nothing.  The deadness will leave.  Hope and light will seep into your heart. Do it!

"Anyone who is among the living has hope." Ecclesiastes 9:4

Suicidal thoughts only survive within an outlook of complete hopelessness.  Hope, true Biblical hope, is the best antidote for hopelessness.  Take the hope that is in resident in the promises of God and put it into your heart.  Your outlook will change.  God has a wonderful habit of raising individuals out of impossible situations.  In fact, He enjoys doing it, and it brings Him glory.  The Bible is full of stories of people, just like you, who were delivered out of extremely dangerous and potentially embarrassing situations - including His son, Jesus.  You are no different.  Reject the guilt and shame, and absorb His love, forgiveness, and hope.  You will make it out of this situation!  The darkness will not last.  That is the real truth, but for it to work in your life, you must see it as truth and believe it - that is called faith.  God wants us to have faith in Him and to have confidence that He means what He says and says what He means.  This is where reading, speaking, and meditating God's promises come in.  They will grow hope and belief in your heart.  

"Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs it down (depression), but a good word cheers it up." Proverbs 12:25

Allow God’s good word to cheer you up. God’s word is the only true source of hope because it shows the will of Him who can help. Allow the hope of a good result to seep back into your heart. Suicide is the extreme dead-end of hopelessness. Allowing thoughts of hopelessness to control your thinking narrows and darkens your path till suicide appears to be the only option, BUT IT IS NOT. There are plenty of other solutions; you just can’t see them now because hopelessness has blinded you to them. The hope that is resident in the promises of God will open the eyes of your heart, and you will be able to see again. It will get brighter.

Suicide only appears like an option when the devil has hidden all your other options. Allow the Bible to open your eyes.  You will have to work at it. You will not feel like it. Do it anyway, your life depends on it, and contrary to what you are feeling, YOUR LIFE IS WORTH IT. Suicide is a permanent solution to an intense but short term problem. Don’t do it!

“Do not be a fool–why die before your time?” Ecclesiastes 7:17b

This may sound harsh but the hard truth is this – the thought to end one’s life is foolish – and once you step back and see it for what it really is, you will understand.

 I pray for all suffering from depression and thoughts of suicide.  Only Jesus can deliver. Their is power and authority in the Name of Jesus. If you are a born-again believer there are some things that you need to know so that you can live free from darkness that has come to you.  When Jesus was born, God gave Him a name that was higher in position and authority than any other name.  Jesus' name means: Mighty One, the Savior of the World, the Prince of Peace, the Healer, the Deliverer, the Restorer, and the One who is more than enough. Everything that you and I might ever need is in the name that God gave to His Son.,  All power and all authority in heaven and in earth back up the name of Jesus.  When Jesus rose from the dead, He told His disciples that anything that they asked in His name, He would do it. He told them to ask, that their joy would be full.

You are not fully of joy when these dark thoughts fill your mind and possess your days.  The enemy, Satan, has come to steal, kill, and to destroy your joy and the peace in your heart by putting these evil thoughts in your mind. God always tells us the truth.  He said that you are inscribed on the palm of His hand. God has not changed His mind. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. His thoughts toward you are for good and to bring you to a hope-filled future. God's will is for you to have good days and long life. God loves you more than Satan hates you. Jesus' name has defeated every plan of the enemy, and all you have to do is use the name of Jesus and Satan must flee. Always remember that God in you is greater than any darkness that comes near you. You are to speak to the Shadow or any darkness and say, "Leave me in Jesus'name." Are you ready to do that? When you are ready simply say, "I speak to the Shadow or any other dark thing and I say leave me in Jesus' name."

 As simple as it may sound, these spirits leave instantly; try it, you have tried every other way. Now give Jesus a chance and watch miracles happen, your life will never be the same.

I am praying for all that are suffering from mental afflictions.  You are precious in the sight of The Lord and I pray that you will be set free of this bondage, and filled with His love. The Scripture says in Jeremiah 29:11,  "I have great plans for you, plans to prosper you, to give you a future and a hope."  Ask God for the grace to forgive, and forgive from the heart everyone who has hurt you. Forgive yourself and release any regrets. God is not holding anything against you, and neither should you. You cannot do it alone. Ask Him for His help; let the atmosphere of heaven fill your heart and your home. He wants you to be free.
