Thankful for Freedom

I thank the Lord for setting me free from a heavy spirit of depression. Before the Lord broke it off of me, I found out that it was a generational curse-ran in our family line. It was so heavy upon me some days, it did really make you seek a way out from under it's tormenting effects. One evening in night service, the Lord sent a speaker. After the service my sister wanted him to pray for her son and she asked me to go up with her; I didn't want to, but eventually I gave in. After he prayed for her son, he prayed for me. As he prayed for me, I felt and heard a snapping inside, around the area of my heart, and then joy and peace flooded my heart. A deliverance minister later told me the snapping sound was the enemy releasing me from the chains that held me in the depression. My life, my countenance, the way that I generally feel daily has all changed positively; the heaviness, doom, gloom and despair that surrounded me, that sat upon me, is gone and has been for many years now. I thank God for Jesus Christ! The Scripture says in Isaiah 53:5 "the chastisement of our peace was upon him." This means He paid the cost for my personal freedom from the curse of depression. I am so glad that Jesus loves me! I am so thankful that I have been set free!
