Having looked at the dangers of depression in our previous studies, it is very important to make the choice against depression.

Today, we shall be looking at what it takes to deal with the spirit of depression.
1. Fight depression.
Fight the spirit of depression. It is called the spirit of heaviness (Isaiah 61:3). Fight it.

Now, I will like you to take note of the following key thoughts on depression:
1. Depression is a major sponsor of oppression
Depression opens the door for, and sustains oppression because satan is at work where joy is lacking (1 Samuel 1:18-19).

2. Depression frustrates discretion (Isaiah 12:3)
Depression affects reasoning. Whenever people are depressed, their reasoning pathways are blocked. A depressed person lacks the capacity to find solutions to issues.
