Declaration

Dear Saviour, I renounce the spirit and mindset of depression, and decree it is defeated in my life. In the name of Jesus, I cancel the plan the spirit of depression has for me and I expel it, and I command all associated spirits to depart from me.

Holy Spirit, I pray for You to support me to renew my mind, think on that which is good and develop a mindset where You are free to abide. Holy Spirit, fill me with the hope of God.

Lord, aid me to see all the good things You have given me and to fight the spirit of depression when it ambushes me.

Lord, I declare that in Christ, I have a future and a hope, and it’s never too late with God, for I am an overcomer in Him, Amen.
