Bishop David Oyedepo, the General Overseer of the Living Faith Church Worldwide spoke to his members at Breaking Generational Curses Service, Faith Tabernacle, Canaanland. While talking about some foul spirits behind sickness and disease, he said that one of them is the spirit of heaviness.
According to him, some people are always down, they can’t put their finger on why they are down, they are just down. It is the spirit of heaviness. Isaiah 61:3. There is a spirit of heaviness, He is the one behind depression, suicidal thoughts and all junks. But if you look at Isaiah 61 from verse 1 down the line, that is the ministry of the Holy Ghost to destroy the hold of the spirit of heaviness.
Speaking further, he said that the spirit of heaviness is also behind couples keeping malice. He said, “Husband and wife living at home and then keeping malice. “Good morning, Good morning” ”where are you going? What is your business” “when are you coming back, for what? I am not coming back at all. Don’t ask me again.” That’s the spirit of heaviness. It is also a spirit just sitting there manipulating people for no just cause.
Also, the spirit of heaviness has killed many. He said, “The spirit of heaviness has taken many lives to the grave. You will not be taken. The cure is the oil of joy that the Holy Ghost offers. You can’t be full of praise and be full of depression. The Holy Ghost wears on us the cloak of praise. In the name of the Lord Jesus, I cast out every spirit of heaviness oppressing anyone under the sound of my voice today.”
However, Every child of God is begotten to a living hope, your hope is alive because the one who lives in you is alive. So you have a tomorrow. It is when you can’t see your tomorrow that you are depressed. You have a tomorrow painted gloriously on the pages of scripture. You have a tomorrow.
It may appear like you are in prison today like Joseph but you have a tomorrow. What kept Joseph going is that he kept seeing the tomorrow. There is joy, there is a bright and colourful tomorrow laid before you. By the anointing today, the spirit of heaviness is laid to rest in your life.
Finally, he said, “A broken spirit will end up breaking the body. Depression is the gateway to oppression. You can’t be oppressed until you are first depressed. Therefore rejoice in the Lord. Church Gist. Rejoice forevermore. The spirit of heaviness is cursed today in the life of any victim of it. Proverbs 17:22. Your bone will not be dried.”
