As many of you know me from my previous post, you probably know that I am now unemployed, faced with mounting bills and I am depressed again. I have suffered from depression for a while and right now is not a good time for it to be "flaring up." I just feel like nothing good will ever happen in my life. Please pray for me, Tiffany

Tiffany, I know how difficult depression can be and I believe I posted to you before about where your focus needs to be. You MUST follow the Spirit of God and DRAG YOURSELF if necessary to the throne room and the mercy seat of God for help and grace. You cannot sit and mope and have a poor little ole me pity party. You will only perpetual the problem. I know it is hard. Some days I don't want to get out of bed. Some days I have to force myself to get up and put one foot in front of the other and try to function. And I'm dealing with menopause on top of fighting depression! Talk about hell on earth. Anyhow, you know the drill. Now you have to choose to DO IT.
LORD, Tiffany feels alone and lost and hopeless. I ask you Father God, to give her dreams and visions tonight and every night, from you. Overshadow her with your manifest glory and power and presence, soak her to her bones, make yourself REAL TO THE MAX in her. Send Christians into her life to help her do spiritual warfare prayer and/or shake her shoulders and pull her up by the bootstraps, whatever works! I rebuke the spirit of depression and anxiety and all demonic spirits torment her AND me and command them all to GET LOST in Jesus name NOW!! Take her hand, LORD, draw her into your arms today. Help her trust you totally that you have her life planned and you are the one who'll bring her a perfect job in your perfect time and you'll provide ALL her needs, fill ALL her lack and work things out for the good. Rock her world, blow her mind, blast her full of your Spirit. Amen! SO LET IT BE DONE!

Father, In the name of Jesus, I thank you and praise you for another opportunity to trust Your Word. I do thank You, Father, that Your Word declares in Romans Chapter 12 and verse 19, that, "Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord," in the name of Jesus, which reveals to us that you would not want us to take matters in our own hands, but You DID NOT SAY that we could'nt come to you for justice about a thing. And Lord, There has been a ought committed in this job situation with Tiffany, and we now approach you as Father to remedy this situation in Jesus' name. And Father, Your Word declares in Deuteronomy Chapter 19 and verses 16, 17, 18, and 19, that, "If a false witness rise up against any man to testify against him that which is wrong; Then both the men, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before the Lord, before the priests and the judges, which shall be in those days; And the judges shall make diligent acquisition: and, behold, if the witness be a false witness, and hath testified falsely against his brother; Then shall ye do unto him, as he had thought to have done unto his brother: so shalt thou put the evil away from among you," And Father, Somebody is lying in this situation, which caused the confusion in the first place, and caused this young woman to lose her job. So Father, WE HOLD COURT RIGHT NOW, and we bring before you ALL OF THE PARTIES WHO FALSELY ACCUSED TIFFANY, right now, in the name of Jesus, and we decree that THE WILL OF GOD, AS OUTLINED IN THE WORD OF GOD, BE DONE IN THIS SITUATION, RELATIVE TO THIS BEHAVIOR OF FALSE WITNESS, right now, in Jesus' name. Amen and Thank You Lord!

Tiffany, I agree with MamaCat. You can't sit and allow yourself to have a pity party. You must get from out of your bed. I know that it is hard, especially losing your job the way that you did. But God is gracious, just and faithful and He will bless you.
You need to just praise God, just continually allow praise to come from your mouth. Say thank You, God for the new job You have coming to me. Thank You, Father that all of my bills will be paid. I thank and I praise You.
I remember when I was unemployed a while back in 2003, I just thanked God in advance for the job that He was going to bring to me. I thanked God for my further co-workers, my desk, chair, phone, computer, benefits.........just anything I could think of for what I wanted in my "dream" job and you know what, God blessed me with the job that I am at now and it is EVERYTHING and more that I had prayed for.
God loved/loves the time that I spend with Him in praise. In fact, one preacher (Creflo Dollar) says that we should praise God in advance before we get our breakthrough because what we are praying for God has already done in advance, not when it has manifested in our lives.
Your eyes need to stay focused on God, not on the situation/circumstance that happened in your life. Everytime a negative, depressing thought comes combat it with the word. Weeping endures for a night, but joy comes in the morning. Even Jesus had to say the Word says when satan came to Him. So,that should tell you the power of the Word.
I know that everything will be okay because God loves His kids and He always takes care of us.......and He will take care of you. So, get from out of that bed,wipe your eyes and praise the Lord. You will feel better and God will come and join you. He will speak to you. I know when I was uuemployed God said for me to start looking in the healthcare industry (which I have no background in......but God sees and knows all). So, now I am happily working in this wonderful blessed job that God gave me in healthcare all because I focused on God and during our time of praise and worship, He met me and spoke to me. He will do that for you too.
So, sis I remain praying for you knowing that God's blessings are at hand.
