In the Bible, the process of healing depression and overcoming the darkness of death involves a spiritual and practical process that occurs through knowing the truth, believing in the victory of Christ, and asking for peace. The Word of God sees deep depression and dark thoughts as the result of captivity to darkness and the lies of Satan and offers the following strategies for breaking its power. The proclamation of the truth of the Word: replacing negative and hopeless thoughts with the verses and promises of the Bible. The Bible teaches that we must renew our minds with the truth of the Word of God, which is spirit and life. Spiritual warfare prayer: recognising the authority that believers have in Jesus Christ. In the teachings of the faith, to be free from the “spirit of death,” “fear,” and “depression,” the believer casts out and cuts off these dark spirits and their destructive influences from their lives through prayer and in the name of Christ. The calling of the Holy Spirit: filling the interior with the presence of the Holy Spirit, who is the comforter and healer of broken and contrite hearts.
