Depression Is Evil, And This Is What It Will Do To You – Bishop David Oyedepo Reveals

Bishop David Oyedepo, the General Overseer of the Living Faith Church Worldwide spoke on Understanding The Fundamentals Of Success – The Force Of Joy And Rejoicing at Midweek Communion Service, Canaanland.

According to Church Gist, he revealed that one hidden foundation of success that they are looking at that night and it doesn’t look that significant but can keep anyone at the same spot for life is The Force of Joy and Rejoicing. He said that depressed people hardly make marks and hardly accomplish anything meaningful or tangible. They are often defeated and depression is an enemy of destiny, don’t you ever toy with it. “Everyone that commands global impact is known to be an ever hilarious, joyful, excited individual,” he said.

Speaking further, he said that you can’t trace depression in Joseph. He commanded such a dimension of attraction to Potiphar’s wife whose husband was always depressed. He was in prison yet on the move, we are not told he cast his head down once. “You don’t know what evil you are doing to yourself with depression,” he said. We saw how God took him through till he arrived on the throne of Egypt. Depression is evil. It is worse than what any witchcraft will do to you. He said that Joy is what provides access to inspiration. Inspiration is the channel to insights and insights produce exploits.

He then explained that Paul the Apostle, a man of uncheckered joy is reported to be a man of the abundance of revelation. We saw how much impact his insights engendered. All of the scriptures are the product of inspiration and Paul wrote about half of the New Testament. By joy, he gained access to inspiration, by inspiration he gained access to revelation, and by such insights, he commanded that level of insights.

Finally, he said that you rob yourself of insights, you just unknowingly begin to wreck your own life by surrendering to unnecessary matters, immaterial things, and allowing such things to weigh on your life, till you are robbed of everything precious. “Applied revelation is what equals wisdom and wisdom is the womb of exploits,” he said.
