Breathing Out the Weight of Depression - Louie Giglio

Pastor Louie leads our House into a new Collection of Talks, titled, ‘Putting an ‘X’ Through Anxiety’. In this talk, Pastor Louie urges listeners to get back in touch with the breath of God—His Spirit. It is breathing IN the truth about God and the actual physical breath that He gives us that ultimately combats the anxiety and depression that ravage our nation. It is in breathing OUT worship and truth that ultimately leads to an offensive attack on the schemes of the Enemy.

VERSES // Ezekiel 37:1-14, Genesis 1:2, Genesis 2:7, Acts 17:25, Romans 8:9

At Passion City Church, we believe that because God has displayed the ultimate sacrifice in Jesus, our response to that in worship must be extravagant. It is our privilege, and our created purpose, to reflect God’s Glory to Him through our praise, our sacrifice, and our song.

This came right on time. I have been going THROUGH it. This is NOT who I am. “Breath of God, COME. Breathe on me. Breathe new life on these dry bones, and let them live!”

[Sntgaya]

Today, June 9, 2024 - I am asking for prayer that I can focus on the breath of God. I’m in a very very dry place right now. I am seeking help and need prayer because I’m stumbling with depression and anxiety. Thank you for this word of God today.

[ryanstevenson]

Amen! Thanks for doing another talk on anxiety and depression, I have been dealing with this lately, battle after battle, it has taken a toll on Me. But I have Faith that by the Blood of Jesus Christ and The Ruah of God, These bones WILL LIVE! Thanks Passion Church for always delivering the word of God and His message for His Saints!

[itsspencerlee]

Thank you for making this about God stepping in... and not about those that struggle with their mental health not praying enough or not having enough faith. Thank you for also speaking about practical steps people can take.

Best message I've heard on this topic. Didn't feel dismissed or condemned.

[BriannaRose]

I needed to hear this👍🥰💜🙏 I struggle with anxiety and depression…I know God’s promises are greater than any of my fears! His word is truth 🥰💜🙏 Promises. Principles. Prophecy.👍💜🙏

[andymontalvo]

Thank You, Pastor. Not too many spiritual leaders talking about the topic of anxiety / depression. I myself have struggled from anxiety, Depression and OCD, but the worst of them all is OCD, it’s diabolical.

In any case, thank you for reminding me that God is still there. MY DRY BONES COULD LIVE, BREATHE ON THEM JESUS!

Hi pastor,
I am Marieta Viljoen living in Swakopmunt, Namibia 🇳🇦, South West Africa.
I love ❤ your sermons, given by God. The first two was: they were about the greatness of the universe- the greatness of our God. That changed my outlook on God from before I was fifty, I am eighty now. Your/God's word brought the difference.
A few weeks ago my daughter was taking photos on the seaside. Not aware that she captured a image on a little stone that reminded me of the image of Laminin. I pointed 👉 it out to her.I searched for your videos to show her. Before she had come to Christ, she knows Him. Albeit she had gone through the death of daughter under suspicious circumstances. She had been under such deep depression from which she now recovering.
Glory to God for His healing power.

[nancyumberger]

[elmosjgsfriend]

You have no idea how much I needed this today, am about to go to the Dr to see if there's anything she can do to help with my anxiety medication, as it doesn't seem to be as effective as it was. The sermon and prayer helped give me peace in my mind and spirit, so thanks very much.

[ranaewesteren]

So needed today! This is the second message of yours that has been so helpful for depression. It has made a difference in my life & relationship with God. I RECOMMEND your lesson, 'I am not ok, but Jesus is ' to everyone I meet who is struggling with mental illness themselves, or someone they love. Thank you! Breathe in us Lord, as we ask you to come in & get us through another day....and yes, declare what you have done!!

[rianaels]

Thank you for being transparent and a willing instrument in our Father's hand! I praise Him for your breakthrough and healing in Jesus's name!

[SheriH-tfgv]

I have been on antidepressants for 18 years. My body, mind, heart, and soul thanks you for your anointing and refreshment. What a marvelous blessing today!!!

[emmanuellight]

Well? I was depressed all of my life. Nothing helped me. Than I found Jesus and now I feel hapiness. I can help somebody to find Jesus, we can pray together - prayer helps.

[sarahwagner]

Amen, Amen, Amen!!! This sermon hit home on many levels for me, ive been suffering with deep depression for the past 4 years when I was diagnosed with cancer for the 2nd time I have had many health issues due to chemo and radiation but man did your sermon really speak to me thank you so much.
