Thankful
Dear Friend, 

When the topic of mental health comes up, most people immediately think about the extreme cases they’ve seen around town and in the news, this includes people talking to themselves on the street corner or someone naked, wielding a knife that’s confronted by the police. In many cases, law enforcement is the last thing someone with a mental health issue needs.

What’s more prevalent and sinister are the subtle cases of mental illness that are difficult to detect.

These include:
  • Sleeplessness (insomnia)
  • Depression
  • Traumatic experiences such as violence to yourself or a loved one.
  • Abuse of alcohol or drugs.
Fortunately, there are many resources available in the secular arena, to address these issues, such as counseling and or medication. But what is the Body of Christ to do when experiencing mental health challenges? What does God’s word have to say to us about our mental well-being? A lot.
LOVE GIFT
Remember, God’s word is to be rightly divided. In doing so, you will see what God has for us to address mental health and all forms of health-related matters. God’s word says about health:

3 John 2: Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.

Now you know it is God’s will for us to be healthy and prosperous. God even gives us a bonus, prosperity.

Sleeplessness, I’m not a physician, but from my experience, most insomnia comes from not going to bed early enough to get a good night’s sleep. You know what time you need to wake up in the morning, so staying up late to watch the latest show on tv or play just one more online game, isn’t wisdom.

There is no need to go to the doctor to address your sleeplessness unless you try going to bed on time. What, can’t sleep? Try reading your bible. Satan does not want you reading God’s word. He’ll help you go to sleep just to keep you from you learning about the victory you have in Jesus.

Philippians 4:6-7: Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

2 Timothy 1:7: For God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

John 14:27: Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Isaiah 41:10: Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.

Do you get the picture? There are dozens of scriptures in the bible, the word of God, that address any mental health matter you are experiencing. The rest is up to you. Do all you can to get God’s word inside you. Read the bible, attend church, bible studies, pray in the understanding and in the spirit or get actual Christian counselling, either from your church or other Godly resources.

The purpose of today’s letter is in response to the month of May being Mental Health Awareness Month. If you or a loved one are experiencing anything mentioned in this letter or anything similar, share it with them. You can also support Ever Increasing Faith Ministries with your gifts of love so we can continue to share these letters to many others who may otherwise never get this information.

For your love gift of any amount, I will send you the first lesson of my teaching, In His Right Mind and a bookmark with scriptures that you should confess daily concerning your mental health. These scriptures will keep you in remembrance of what Our Heavenly Father has said in His word about those issues that seek to prevail against the sound mind that He gave to you.

In the Service of the King,
Pastor Fred Price, Jr.

PS: My wife, Angel, and I thank you for your continual support of the work of Ever Increasing Faith Ministries. Countless lives are being changed daily because of you.
